Well there's probably 15 stars between the three of them so you can book the OL as dominating this year. I mean the line averages 5 stars so it doesn't matter anyways.

Yep. They've (meaning Neuheisel brought it up but Sark elaborated) already talked about how USC can't practice as hard to prep for Stanford because of the 'depth issues'.
He also may have the largest staff of highly paid assistants ever assembled (anyone see the USC team photo from 2 weeks ago?) so he will easily be able to blame someone else and mix up the staff a few times before being fired.
Sark won't lean on the sanctions as an excuse but he will, of course, mention them weekly.
Sark when asked about the sanctions after a bad loss:
"No, the sanctions haven't affected us. We have 20 less players on scholarship than the other teams we play against. That's just the way it is and it really affects our depth and our ability to practice. As you can see, we are starting a lot of freshmen, including two on the OL. We have a couple walk-ons in our two deeps. We would obviously be a much better team if we could field a full roster. I think today would have been a lot different if we didn't have scholarship restrictions and if we could have gone full speed a little more in practice. But the sanctions haven't affected us. We won't use those as an excuse."

That's why I thought it might be a bad move for Tui to go down there, easy cannon fodder when Seven's offense isn't generating wins.

Tui is the TE's coach. He's pretty far down on the list of who to blame when Sark's offense struggles. Youth on the OL will be the first excuse. QB having trust issues will be #2. Then the OC will be blamed. Then the OL coach. Then the other offensive coaches. Then the players. Then Tui.
It's obvious here that the combination of Sark's awesome recruiting, combined with IVAN's superior strength program and Cozetto's in your face coaching style, means that his OL are ready to rumble after just one fall camp. 2014 is going to be really special.

If O-line plays well: "Sark is a great recruiter and offensive genius"
If O-line shits the bed: youth excuse
