As they move back into renovated Husky Stadium, just a winning record and bowl trip are no longer good enough.

"I think there are a lot of programs in our conference that would be really happy to have gone to three bowl games in a row and finish with winning records," Sarkisian said. "I think that's acceptable. But that's not the way we're judged here, one, and that's not the way we're built here, two. We're built to win championships and we're judged on our championships."

    As much as I like to rip the guy, he does know his fanbase very well.

    Sark has really gotten defensive about his track record in recent months. Could it possibly be that Woodward has told him he needs to win more or he's gone?

    I don't believe it however Sark is feeling pressure from somewhere, and it ain't our fan base.

    Seeing how he puts Holiday Bowl wins under championships on his own page I'm curious if simply winning a bowl game is good enough for him? Since he considers those championships.

    I wished whoever he told that quote too would have brought up his "House Money" comment from just two years ago and what has changed since then for him?

    Coming from a coach who didn't even win the 2012 State of Washington Championship. Sheesh...

    Okay, I must admit that I had no idea what that term meant until a moment ago when I went to Urban Dictionary.

    With Sven, I should have assumed the worst from the outset.

    Three straight bowel games just means you're treading agua nowadays. I guess Doogs are dumb enough to believe his spin though.

    If you weren't so busy hitting the like/dislike buttons all day, you might be in a better mood and post somewhat coherent posts

    Hey only Oregon, Stanford and UW have been to three straight bowl games! Some of you guys forget we were 0-12.

    I don't get the "no longer" acceptable part. This fucker thinks it was acceptable at some point in the past?

    After reading the explanation on Urban Dictionary, I think that is worse for a homophobe than actually seeing the deed. Such a vivid explanation.

    It misses the mark to think the "fan base", or I should say, the typical "lunch pail fan" has any significant sway, especially today with the magnitude of broadcast revenue streams. The expectations of high value boosters, who typically give to both academic and athletic wings of the university, and the expectations of the university administration drive the bus. Sark's statements and actions smack of a coach under pressure, and I have little doubt it is coming from sources that matter. What is not clear is just how high those expectations are, but again, Sark's actions suggest that they are high enough that he believes they are going to be difficult to achieve. Take all the screenshots you need, Seven wins in '13 means Seven is gone.
