Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
It feels good to think Sark is on his way out. But in the end ... we're alone.
Reality ...
Fucker will be here until UW starts to lose money.
Let's look at the facts.
7-6 is the new 11-1
Washington is a top 20 football revenue program, just one slot behind Oregon ... top 3 in the Pac.
Washington, as bad as it is, is a top 20 coaching gig.
Pool boy has smaller balls than Hedges.
Sark makes bank for a coach, not an easy buyout during THESE economic times.
No booster movement, this is a think not a know.
If there is a booster movement it was clearly stated in the WSJ w/o a crazy billionaire ... we ain't got shit.
Sorry ... Sark ain't being fired. Our only hope is Texas or Florida takes him.

As long as Sark makes money for the program and goes 7-6, 8-5, he'll be around. When the program starts to lose money AND that loss of revenue threatens Title 9 sports like women's softball, volleyball, golf, then you'll see quick action to replace him. We're talking about Seattle sports fans and the UW Administration here. . .get used to it. . .we've become the Mariners.
This is not a knock on women's sports. . .
There's a MUCH better chance Sark gets fired than hired by a REAL football school. 5% > .0000000000000005%
hth
Texas, Florida, Ohio State, SC ... a.k.a schools that care about winning.
Look at Washington much like half brains look at Kent State, Eastern Washington, Fresno State.
In their eyes if Sark can go 7-6 after taking over a nationally perceived 0-12 train wreck, he may add value to their school.
If you're pretending 0-12 didn't happen, then I can't help you.
I said this even last year on dowgbored (RIP). For the doogs, from the top of the ranks (pool boy, Kim and softy etc) to the lowliest doog posting on Jewd's blog from his parent's basement with a boner in his sweatpants....at the end of the rainbow there is always the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl Classic runner up championship. And the offseason natty (I like to call it that) and "next season will be special"....
This isn't "lather, rinse, repeat" anymore....it's just lather. It's simply one long, continuous death spiral.
Sark will be here soaking up tax payer dollars as long as he wants. Or until, Allah willing (praise be unto his name), he bottoms out with a Willingham like season.
So all of the "next coach" threads are pretty much pointless right now.
Simple fact...case closed!
fucking
years
How can people still buy that bullshit when precedent is staring them right in the face and laughing.
