Watching the husky bench high five and giggle up 18pts in the Apple Cup. Next thing you know Wazzooo wins 31-28 in OT snapping their 8 game losing streak without their by far and away best player. Their only PAC-9 win of the year. The cougs are the proud owners of the greatest come back in Apple Cup history. Not to mention UW had 18 penalties tying a school record. Sounds like the team was laser focused that day.Sark's response: It was a learning experience. Gee, tell the fans what you learned? I bet he learned it still feels pretty good raking in 2.5 million a year? Must really sting...Pool boy earning $450,000 a year, and Sark making over 200,000 a month.....The fans have been bamboozled! Bamboozled I say. You have to love Emmert's parting gift to pool boy giving him a 25,000 dollar raise couple weeks prior to his departure to further ruin the NCAA.Middle class folk spending their half earned wages to spend it on Sark's and pool boy's insane salaries. All fans want is a winning football team so they can escape their life and job for a couple hours and enjoy crisp evening with their fathers.
The new contract runs through June 30, 2015 and pays Woodward a base salary of $425,000 per year with total guaranteed compensation each year of $550,000. That is the same salary he received in his former deal that he agreed to when he took the job in September 2008.However, the new deal calls for Woodward to receive a $500,000 retention bonus if he remains at UW through the end of the contract. Emmert said he wanted to ensure stability in the position.
This is how bad the the Apple Cup loss was.WSU gave up 57 sacks, which ranked last in the nation. It led a ground game that averaged 29 yards per contest, again last in the nation. 1.38 yards per carry. Last year.

Emmert saw to that with a middle of the night pay raise in the final hours of his UW presidency.
Jesse Callier taunting the WSU crowd at the start of the 4th quarter as pretty special to witness.
The Apple Cup loss was one of the worst losses this program has experienced and we've experienced a ton recently. You had a chance to really bury the pirate. A blowout loss to UW and go 2-10 while being shut out in conference play, kicking off players including your best guy would have really damaged the Leach era. Again though it all falls back to the top. When your head coach isn't taking the game seriously why should the players? First play of the game he tries a WR reverse pass with Bruns and is dropped for a huge loss. Instead of establishing an identity and running Sankey he tries to get cute. Later on after blowing an 18 point lead the Huskies are somehow in a position to salvage an ugly win. Facing a 3rd and 1 against a terrible Coug rush defense instead of just pounding Sankey, Sark again tries to be cute. He tries to coax them into jumping offsides. It of course backfires and UW has the controversial false start. In overtime, Sark calls that slow drawn out play action pass that always ends in a sack only this time Price panic and threw a terrible pick. At a REAL school Sark would have been fired after that loss. At this pussy school with our pussy ass fan base that deserves another 0-12 it's "Hey even James lost to the Cougs. Upsets happen get over it guys".

Thats after you basically drive right down the field with no resistance.
Maybe he likes being 7 win Steve. If he were to win 9-10 games the expectations would be even greater. Keep it to 7-8 wins collect about 3 million a year, keep the stadium 90% filled and you are cruising.

He won a Rose Bowl year two so in year four when he went 7-6 it appeared to be a disaster and fans wanted him out.While had he just shown incremental progress every year he'd probably still be coaching today.

Ricky boy didn't help himself by lying to his boss either. The Niner's interview cover up was pretty stupid. Do you think slicky ricky would go unnoticed in the SF airport?

Had Sark won 9 games last year, it would have bought him, bare minimum at least another two years and a total pass this season.
