Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
In honor of Mike Bellotti
I'm not sure the best team on the field won the game. The best coach did. UW should have won rather easily. The players didn't quit which is big.
Special teams is all on the head coach. We have the talent to compete now. Losing is unacceptable. Its Sark's fault.
He blew the game. He has to beat Oregon. Period

Nothing else matters.
Win the North this year or LEAVE!
UW actually should have won rather easily, say 34-17, but for their Down syndrome baby of a coach.
The talent is there.
I also think Wilcox, Tosh and Sirmon are leaving after this year as well. Sark will then be exposed as a shitty head coach and if not for a soft schedule could have a losing season next year.
I see the Huskies somehow winning 9-10 games that means the defense has played great and he'll get a head coach job at a MWC, WAC or a lower level BCS school.
On the other side if the Huskies only win 7-8 games then Wilcox will sense that Sark might be on the hot seat soon and bail with Sirmon. Tosh has shown he will bail on a sinking ship as well and could leave as well at that point.
He'll wait for a pac-12 gig or when petersen leaves
In the next few years we could see Cal, UW and UO open. Dykes could be fired after next year if Cal doesn't get better. Wilcox probably knows he has a good chance to be promoted if Sark bolts. Helfrich is probably safe for through 2015. Oregon could win the NC this year but Im not sure Helfrich keeps Oregon at a top 10 level 4 years from now. Guys like Frank Solich and Larry Coker inherited great teams but were exposed as time went on.
You can always get a better job in two years.
Also, Chip Kelly loved your Doog logic about Helfrich at Oregon.
If you wait too long for the "right job" then you get passed up by the next up and coming coordinator. Also who is to say that "right job" they won't hire an established guy.
Wilcox, like I said if the team does well he will leave to become a head coach somewhere.
If Sark goes like 8-5, I can see Wilcox looking to be a DC somewhere else to avoid being on the same staff as a lame duck head coach like he did at Tennessee.
Sark was thinking he was all that and a bag of chips landing Wilcox but it was Wilcox that knew he could breathe and shit and do a better job than Holt.
He's exceeded that by exponential degrees. He's set himself up nicely.
