Lambo's mediocrity as a coach is something we can all agree upon, but in comparing the two guys I like to pose the following question: What if Sark's "medical condition" blew up while he was at UW instead of during his brief stay at USC? Could we have survived that as a program or would any last little flame of hope we had be extinguished forever? Lambo clearly wasn't the guy, but he wasn't a risk to take down the whole ship with him. In 1999 we were poised to return to glory (and we did briefly) and sustain it had we found of great coach (other than Rick). Say Sark stays for a 6th year and melts down and we end up with another loser coach, instead of getting lucky with Pete?
no shit willingham and gilby were worse, no one would argue otherwise
there are compelling arguments around which of sark or lambo are shittier though
lambo inherited the apex and had lots of good will by virtue of the sanctions, even if his recruiting and in-game decision making made it abundantly clear he wasn't the man for the job. many fought tooth-and-nail to keep him around, espousing garbage like "he inherited DJ's sanctions" or " he did what he could" and other nonsense minutiae.
my selective quote here tells you where I stand.
Whammy in Miami notwithstanding, take a good look through the '94 roster, pause, and then tell me again how that dumb fuck wound up at 7-4.
He was the epitome of the Peter Principle.
Btw, my sources, which may or may not have included a hot blonde intern who had the hots for me, told me back in the day that the straw that broke the camel's back with Lambo was not his record, but instead some shit that was going down in the Athletic Department with a secretary. Babs could stand the mediocrity, of course, because she didn't care if you? won a lot; but she sure as shit was not going to tolerate having him tapping the help. That's what I was hearing back then anyway .... don't twist.
Fat alcoholic Armenian frat hamster vs wifebeating douche and one of the idiots who shat all over what DJ built. Both were flagrantly mediocre and had legions of doogs defend them until the end.
Gilbyham was by far the worserist of the worst corches Washington ever had.
It's fitting to lump Gilbyham into one. Ty was easier to hate due to his poorly devised, fake persona and the irrational support given to him. Gilby was just as bad at game planning, game day coaching, recruiting etc and just needed more time to get his 0-12. I don't know if he was worse than Ty, but I'm pretty sure he wasn't better.
It was all the persona for me. There is a part of me that actually gets people wanting to see AA coaches succeed. At topic for another thread.
I've told my kids the following: the best combination to be is smart and humble, but if you can't pull that off, then be either (1) smart and arrogant or (2) stupid and humble. The one thing you cannot be in this life is stupid and arrogant; nobody, and I mean nobody, will tolerate you if you bring that package to the table.
Ty was that combination. Fucking inept as the day is long, and stunningly arrogant.

Upvoted for the second paragraph, then flagged. You know why.

How do you explain HH, Doucheman, and your? Seattle Mariners?

Why accept limitations and make choices ?
Why select only one, when all are viable ?
Bask in the plethora of correct choices - it's a cornucopia....
It doesn't really matter because they're all retarded. Just like Sark and Lambo.
Both were flagrantly mediocre and still have legions of doogs defending them.
That's what I thought
