    Met a couple of the players recently. One of them said they just couldn't really "buy in" with Sark and said the change with the coaching staff has been fantastic.

    Meh. This is just classic confirmation bias. It's telling because we want it to be telling. But these exact comments are made by players every single time there's a regime change. Sometimes they're telling, sometimes they're not. Time will tell.

    Either way it will be interesting.

    What will be interesting will be the reaction from many at the other site if Peterson does win 11 games and Sark falls flat in some very winnable games as he did here and USC has a less than stellar season. My guess is that there would be the normal enabling excuses having to do with sanctions and so forth, never mind that USC has better talented freshmen each year sitting on the bench than many in the conference have as seniors.

    I'm hearing PhilBleenor knew Sarkgasm would be a shitty coach since before Jason Chorakkk sacked him 23 times in Husky Stadium in 1996.

    Stop being a twister.

    Will people stop bringing up Sark losing down at USC while Petersen is winning at UW.

    First of all, Sark left Petersen with a much better program. You Sark bashers should be thanking him from pulling his program out of the 0-12 hole to the point where any coach can just come in here and coach that team. While Sark took over for Lane Kiffin who ran that program into the ground. Sark needs to change the culture down there while Petersen doesn't as Sark left him a well oiled machine.

    Second, injuries. Sark lost his backup long snapper. You can't survive without a backup long snapper. Once you find that out the season makes a lot more sense.

    Third, Sanctions. Petersen has the luxury of having a full 85 while Sarkisian doesn't. Impossible to win when you don't have a full deck.

    Now I know some of you will go twisting claiming I'm bashing on Petersen. I'm not so let's stop that now. However, to ignore the amazing talent that Sark left him is unfair to Sark. I think talent wise this team could beat the 1991 Huskies. Not saying they would beat the 1991 Huskies but Sark left him a team capable of beating the 1991 Huskies.


    Some dumb fuck broke his nose then played through it.

    I was pretty spot on with my satire. Stick to telling us how Mike Leach is going to make a Rose Bowl........

    Funny how Kiffin is a shitty coach and the players hate him, but you RARELY heard sanctions as an excuse. It was all Layla Kiffin. But when Sark wins 8 games including 2 that he pisses away himself, the sanctions excuse will be resurrected from the dead even though Sarktard only has to deal with the tail end of it.

    God I hate our fans. Can you imagine SCfs fans saying it's OK Kiffin isn't going to Rose Bowls because John Robinson never had to face a RANKED Oregon State and the Arizona schools weren't serious about football? FYFMFOF.

    This is why it's going to be fun to see Sark get a giant dose of reality check. Better enjoy it while we can as at most he'll last four years there. I think only three myself.

    They'll get tired of sloppy play, excuse making, being unprepared, personally cost his team 2 games a year, more excuse making, throwing others under the bus, etc.

    Unlike our pussy ass fan base and media they won't tolerate that shit down there. Hell a lot of USC fans were pissed at that hire so he has to win them over quickly as their fan base is divided.
