Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Remember Nussmeier?

I may be wrong because I've been out of the country for the past 8 months but does it seem like everyone has simply dusted off the fact that Doug Nussmeier was HUGE to the success of Keith Price last season? I was the QB manager during the 2009 season and it always struck me as odd that Sark got so much credit for the development of Locker because I was with those guys during every single practice and most meetings and Nussmeier was the one that broke the position down to the fundamentals as a starting point and eventually as an art. Sark ran the large team meetings and would call the plays during practice but that's about all I saw when it came to QB development. It's no fault to Sark that the media portrayed him as a QB guru but I saw the connection that Price had with Nussmeier and I think that losing him was an absolutely huge blow to his development.

Like I said, I may be wrong but it seems like almost everyone I've talked to about the team back home hasn't even brought this up as an issue.

    Good points. Those of us who aren't able to see practice daily are not aware of what happens. That said, I recall this being touched on when Nuss left and were quickly shot down by the Softy fb crowd. Anyone who questions Sark is a HHB moron.


    Glad to have you aboard.

    Serious question...what is Sark good at?

    He's supposed to be a QB guru and great play caller and OC but we all know he is none of those things.

    He is a great recruiter. Everyone says so.

    Sark is great at kick ass pressers and winning 7 games. What more can we possibly expect in THIS economy?

    This have been covered but people want to overlook it that coach Nuss knows what he is doing. If Nick Saban knocks on your door to be his OC, you must know something.

    Is it possible Pete has some kind of binding spell on Kellen Moore that he can instantly and inexorably summon him back to his command? That would be cool right about now.

    NOOOOOOOO!

    We're trying to GET RID of Mountain West fingerprints on our offense, not double down on them.
