    Tosh graduated from intern to a real position coach gig this year, btw. The Tide Rolls On...

    If it's true, it's probably Saban doing this as a favor to Kiffen, nothing more. Sark will probably have no direct impact on the offense, but Kiffen and he will be able to talk late every night about bubble screens and/or bubble butts.

    Or Saban knows that Sark actually has something to offer as an assistant and he has nothing to lose, because he holds all the cards. He doesn't need to do favors for Lane. What would his motivation even be? Keeping him? He just let his DC go get a head coach job, so I doubt he intends on holding on to Lane. He wants him to graduate and maybe he thinks he can turn Sark into his replacement. Maybe not.

    Sark isn't as big a dumbass as he gets made out to be. Not head coach material, sure, but he can actually be a decent assistant. Super Bowl champion Pete Carroll seems to agree, and people forget that Charlie Weiss was an abject failure as a HC but a bona fide success under Belichick.

    Would you hire him as your OC?

    That's what I thought.

    There's literally no upside for Saban in hiring Sark if you assume that he can mold coaches to suit his methodology.

    Sober Sark is a good QB coach, possibly an OC with some adjustments. Kiffin struggled at first until Saban fixed his shit up. Now all of a sudden, he's a better playcaller. They set up USC real good today, starting conservative and sucking them up to the LOS before killing them deep. Having talent helps, and they were both pretty successful under Carroll at USC. That's how they got head coaching gigs to begin with, right?

    Either way, if Sark fucks up or won't play along with Saban, he should know that Saban can probably end his career. He basically has to go back to being a REAL head coach's bitch for a while. I'm sure Saban will make that fact evident behind closed doors.

    If true...
    Sure...

    After his record of incompetence at UW I'm not inclined to give Sark that much credit for his work under Pete at SC. He had Leinart, Bush, Williams, etc. of course they were going to set offensive records.

    He isn't being hired as an OC and I'm not Nick Saban.

    He's an intern until he can prove the the head coach that he is worth a shit. HTH.

    The parallels between that and 2012 LSU was a great point I didn't think of.
