Before that, the last four games of the 2010 season when he finally realized that his quarterback wasn't good.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhh????????? Wait a minute. Ah yes. The first drive of his first game. Brought a tear to my eye

He's had some good ones, but he's really inconsistent. Almost any offensive coordinator has some good ones, but we all know the key is calling a good game the majority of the time. Sark does not do that.

Well called games: 2009: Cal. 2010: USC, WSU, Nebraska (2nd time), 2011: Hawaii, Cal, Colorado, Utah (esp. 2nd half), Stanford (He was calling a good game, defense just got shredded), Baylor. I don't think he had any in 2012 unless you want to count Portland State or Utah.

The big one that comes to mind is Colorado in 2011. That team was terrible but I think a normal Sark calling day would not have plungered the Buffs the way they did that day.

Notre Dame. Especially the last few minutes. Very impressive.

every game mentioned here in this thread was before Sark's UW career started according to Bill Fleenor.

I really can't believe not one poster went back at Fleenor with, "So the USC wins and the Holiday Bowl don't count?" I always knew Fleenor was a full of shit, wannabe insider, two and a half inches of thunder sucking and fucking groupie, but he took it to another level with the I don't count Sark's years before Wilcox.

It is Phil Bleenor's understanding that a dog is a vicious animal.

Hate to nit pick but no way on WSU in 2010. He had some moments where UW could have blown them out and he fucked it up.

Example UW is up 14-0 heading into halftime and has the ball in the red zone. Worst case scenario if UW continues to run the ball they are up 17-0 at halftime with ball first. Instead he has Jake attempt a difficult throw and Jake throws a pick, WSU goes the length of the field to make 14-7 at halftime.

Huskies lead 21-14 at the start of the 4th quarter facing a 4th and goal from the 1. If you kick the FG you are up two scores. He decides to go for it which I'll admit I didn't mind with Jake's running and Polk pounding them. He has Jake in the shotgun and has a fly sweep to Callier which Jake fumbles and WSU almost takes it to the house.

Even the game winning TD pass that Locker had to Kearse. With 45 seconds left and 2nd and long with a good FG kicker why not run the ball there? An incomplete pass there stops the clock and they will get another crack at it.

Because any poster would dare come after FleenorFS would get banned is why. When you kick off everyone who is capable of critical thinking you are left with a bunch of lemmings.

I remembered the pick by Locker, but I blamed that more on Jake for being a dumbass. I forgot all about the fly sweep to Callier. I take that game back. Polk running for 200 something yards clouded my judgment.

I remember being pissed off at Sark that game that it was even close. He tried his damn near best to blow the game. Polk just refused to let Sark blow the game.
