    This. Washington managed to go cheap (by refusing to pay top dollar) and overpay Sark relative to what his worth was at the same time.

    I think Aubs ridiculed me for making that point at the time.

    Lather, rinse, repeat.

    Had to put Ty in there as I'm sure you made that point back then too.

    So when did you career negas decide Sark needed to be fired? Just curious.

    The podcast after that loss was pretty entertaining and still holds true today.

    What good recruiting classes are u talking about? I personally don't count getting a bunch of 4 star qb's, wr's, and cb's as good recruiting classes

    Stanford 2010

    That was the first real warning sign, but he redeemed himself with the 4 game winning streak to end the year.

    There were warning signs in October 2009
    I know you thought that at the time, but that team was bound to lose some close games. I do agree that ASU and UCLA games were poorly coached, but was it something to be really alarmed about? Are you alarmed by Mora and UCLA getting blown out by Cal last year? How about the UCLA bowl game?

    Some mistakes had to be expected. All in all, he did fine in 2009. After that season, if you would have told even the most ardent Sark supporters that in 2013, we would be ranked 45th in the coaches poll and 3rd or 4th in the North, they would want Sark fired. That's the problem.

    How many games did his coaching cost UW in 2009? 3 that I can think of: ASU, UCLA and ND.

    I'll play along and say the team was 0-12 and need to learn how to win and can concede that maybe, 2-1 is a likely result against those 3 teams. Hell, I'll give you 1-2.

    The point is that the Fat Armenian gave away likely UW wins and should have finished .500 or better in his first season.

    The LSU game made me okay with it. The Arizona game had me making drunken posts on FB demanding it. There's Just no excuse for getting beaten down by five touchdowns by a team with the same talent level.

    That four game win streak was not exactly a murders row of college football titans.
    agreed.

    That was one of the worst four-game winning streaks in the history of sports that aren't beisbol.
