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

Scott Woodward: will he be a Stone Cold Savage or a wilting flower?

If Sarkisian finishes out the regular season 2-2 and then goes 7-5 with a conference record of 4-5 in his 5th season, will Woodward be a Stone Cold Savage and pay Sarkisian to go away? Or will he refuse to admit Sarkisian wasn't the best hire, dig in to cover his own ass, and give him an unearned 6th season?

If the 4 games play out like Vegas sees, then his wins will be:

Boise State (6-3, best win over Utah State)
Illinois (3-5, 0-4 in conference, best win against Cincinnati)
Idaho State (not Division 1)
Arizona (6-2, 3-2 in conference, best win against Utah)
Cal (1-8, 0-7 in conference)
Colorado (3-5, 0-5 in conference, best win against Colorado State)
WSU (4-5, 2-4 in conference, best win against a Kiffin coached USC early in the season)

So would our best win be against Arizona? Does a head-coach deserve to come back for a 6th season when the entire roster is his, he has a RS-SR at QB, and enjoyed 17 returning starters?

I just want to see someone not named HuskyClaus try to defend Sarkisian from Woodward's point of view.

And if Woodward doesn't do what is in OUR (Hardcore Husky Fans) interests, then what do we do? Do we get rid of him too?

    Sounds like you have an agenda.

    I'm in the same boat, they won't let me post on the Hardcore Husky board unless they approve it first. Oh well.

    Humor me for a moment: if we beat Cal by 24, then lose @ UCLA by 13, then lose @ OSU by 7, we will be 3-5 in conference. If Woodward doesn't get on board and get rid of Sarkisian, how do we get rid of Woodward then? Organize a march? Organize a press conference? What can we do to get Woodward to act in our and the program's best interests rather than his own?

    My timeout is done but still cannot post on the hardcore groupthink board without a moderator blessing, either.

    First of all, save your energy. The only drama surrounding Sark's contract is the length of the extension and size of the raise.

    Secondly, Husky foosball is global now. Nobody wants to acknowlege the positive impact Sark has had on recruiting Asian students.

    Third, look at the new stadium. It doesn't get built without Sark, simple fact

    But will they still take your money?

    Because I think it's important for Hardcore Fans who want to strive for more continue to read opinions that don't toe the party line.

    I kind of feel sorry for the DM.com guys (please don't hate me for saying that)...they just aren't in the best spot right now...they probably know deep down that Sarkisian isn't "The Guy" but they rely on his and Woodward's good graces for program access, "insider" knowledge, and coach/player interviews.

    If Woodward won't get rid of Sarkisian even if we finish 4-5 in conference, which is a regression back to 2009 even though the entire roster is his now, then how do we get rid of Woodward?

    If he doesn't make the right decision for the program, then would that lend even more credence to the idea that he is a politico who somehow worked his way into an AD role?
