I noticed all 3 teams had one thing in common.....they changed coaches/ coaches left.There goes the "coaching stability" argument that Baird is the leader of.

I noticed you picked leagues that don't (didn't) play 9 conference games and thus had cupcake padded schedules. They also had more teams. The Pac-12 was a 10 team league most of that time while most of them were 12 team leagues most of that time. If you want to make things closer to even you'd look at Pac-12 teams that won 9 games and correct for a 6/5 ratio. That wouldn't be perfect but it would be much closer to fair.So you would add2012: Oregon State, UCLA2011:2010:2009: USC2008: Oregon State, CalSo now we're at 6 teams and correcting for size you get ~7 teams. So basically the Pac-12 is just like any other conference.

I noticed Oregon and Stanford both hired Offensive Coordinators with no head coaching experience. I guess we can expect both to end up 7-6. Sark only had 2 years of being an OC while Shaw had 4. In terms of overall experience Shaw had a lot more. The same can be said of Kelly who was an OC for far longer than Sark. Most important both of those guys inherited good programs.
Those that think Sark is anywhere close to those guys needs gasoline and matches. Sark was a bad hire and is a bad coach. Get his dick out of your mouth and pay attention

I wasn't talking about Kelly. I guess that means that there have been 3 OC's with no head coaching experience hired for those 3 programs. Kelly and Harbaugh both were the OC and play callers at their respective schools. Those that think Shaw and Helfrich had more experience than Sark are really reaching. Thanks for pointing that out. Shaw = KiesauHTH
The Baird drumming the coaching stability line holds absolutely no relevance in today's win at all costs era. Coaching continuity is a myth. Since sark was hired I think Nansen is the only coach left from the greatest coaching staff in America.

He's coached DL now special teams and RBs. Never coached these positions before. Was a LB as a player.

I don't get why Sark carries dead weight like Nansen and Cozz around.

When you are buddies with everyone, firing people is hard.
I thought we were discussing why some conferences have more teams capable of winning 10 games over a 5 year period.It amazes me how you can turn a discussion about conference strength and get to Sark is not feared or respected like Saban and James.Really is fucking amazing. It's kind of like 7 degrees to Kevin Bacon.
Fuck off LOSER
