Sark or Lambo: who was worse?

Is it worse to inherit greatness and plummet into average or to inherit dogshit and crawl onto a plateau of mediocrity?

Who had the best win? Probably Lambo's whammy in Miami.

Who had the worst loss? I say 2012 Apple Cup. Amazingly there were still legions and legions of doogs frothing at the mouth defending Sark after that one.

    Sark was worse. Lambo did mediocre the right way.

    Didn't we have this conversation back in March?

    I still say Lambo was the better of the two despite him bringing us down rather than Sark bringing us up (obligatory 0-12). Sark should've never been in a position to bring us up because we're WASHINGTON DAMMIT, so I don't really see that as too much of a positive for him.

    Lambo's record at UW was 44-25-1 (.636) and 31-16-1 (.656) in conference.
    Sark's record at UW was 31-29 (.517) and 24-21 (.533) in conference. (I removed DI-AA games because that's a knock on Sark, ruining our streak of never playing DI-AA teams)


    So yeah, Sark was worse.

    My old friend Tailgater said stats are for losers.

    Plus Lambo never had to beat a ranked Oregon State. Has that been mentioned?

    Lambo's biggest problem was that he didn't recruit the edgy WRs from the inner city. A couple more Sark type guys and some sideline dancing would have raised the excitement factor a bit. I personally got a little bored during the Lambo years, choosing to spend more of my time drinking and screwing skanks.

    But...Tailgater was full of shit and the stats don't lie. Lambright wins comfortably.

    Guys stop quoting Lambo's win percentage like its good. He inherited a program who was 31-5 the previous three years. His win % would be similar to Sark's had he took over at any other point in program history.

    Both coaches sucked ass. I'd rather state at Lemon Party than relive the Lambo and Sark years.

    What's next? We'll debate between Boobs and Affirmitative action on who was better coach?

    Agree, Lambo's true talent came through in his last couple years. Seven Win Steve before Sark
