BREAKING: Washington Fires Head Coach Jimmy Lake

In a move that has been widely anticipated for the past week but would’ve been unfathomable just a few months ago, Washington announced today that they have fired head football coach Jimmy Lake. Defensive coordinator Bob Gregory will serve as interim for the remaining 2 games of the season.

Sources: Washington is expected to fire coach Jimmy Lake today. The school will not fire him for cause and plans to pay out the remainder of his buyout, which is subject to offset.
