In 1988 I wanted Don James fired. He got to work and shut me up. And I was delighted. I want Sark to win 10 games this year and go on to many years success. I want UW to succeed so I can be wrong. Right now, it doesn't look good,but I want to be wrong. For the love of God and for those that are going to games on crisp fall days with their dad....prove me wrong. It's been a very long 20 years.

    I want Sark to win just so I can be wrong.

    Good post but I just don't think Sark is driven to be great. He appears to me as some frat guy who has had everything handed to him. While the truly great coaches like James, Saban, Kelly, etc. don't settle for anything other than perfect.

    They are always busting their asses whether it be game planning, recruiting, coaching up their coaches, etc. I hope I'm wrong on Sark but from what I've seen or heard in his five years now he isn't a hard worker.

    All you need to do is look at Garnett and Banner to see Sark doesn't seem to work all that hard. Doogs like to blame it on Cox, but how the fuck does the head coach not have a handle on the situation?

    What's funny is that when he was first hired, the media pumped up how hard Sark was working. "He's not gofling like Ty, he's recruiting and getting the guys ready to play!" It's another example of Sark doing something better than Ty, but nowhere near the level of the elite coaches.

    If wanting UW to win is wrong, I don't want to be right.

    Exactly.

    Some people can't see the difference between demanding results and being "negative". I can't help them.

    I'm hearing we all just want Sark to fail so we can say we were right. Plus we live miserable and pathetic lives.

    I want Sark to do well AND I want him fired regardless.

    He's not the solution long-term. If he surprises on the upside hopefully someone in the NFL is dumb enough to hire him or use him for a rebuilding job.
