Keep making your logical arguments

But we just landed a 5 star recruit!! We have to keep Sark so we get this guy!

(Dear UW people reading this, that's sarcasm.)

Do we have it on good authority that Kimmy is obsessing and the AD is monitoring?

Maybe both the aforementioned parties should realize that with all the traffic this place is producing, perhaps we aren't the lunatic 1% they claim we are.

Fire Sark.

I prefer emotional mobilization

Dear Kim and UW Shot Callers,

On behalf of the U of Oregon fan base we feel that Steve Sarkisian has earned a lifetime contract and may he live to be 1,000 years old.

Fetters pulled out the whole "talking about a coaching change on the message board hurts recruiting more than losing games" argument yesterday. What a bunch of idiots.

Maybe Sark could try winning a few more games.

OK, just in case someone important is reading these boards. . .

Academic and athletic excellence are not incompatible concepts.
Would you tolerate an average doctor running the medical school?
An average lawyer in charge of the law school?

Didn't think so.

Fire Sark.
Spend the money.
Get someone really good.
It will payoff in the long run.

Thank you.

Stanford was turned around to a BCS bowl team in four years. Washington has been stuck in neutral the past four years.

There have been a couple halfway decent letters to Poolboy posted here. Let's vote on the best one/edit it, improve it, and pin it. People can then download and email it, fax it, or snail mail it from my brother-in-law's Madison Park address.

Who's with me

Would you tolerate an average lawyer in charge of the law school?

We certainly do NOT have an average lawyer running the Law School. Kellye Testy is the foremost authority on LGBT Rights Law in the United States. She chaired the Search Committee that hired UW President Michael Young. She is an avid Husky Women's Basketball, and Softball fan and would certainly be on the Search Committee if we ever hired a replacement for Woodward.

At Seattle U Law School, she was instrumental in getting LGBT Law on the curriculum, while dropping anti-trust and maritime law. (Why would attorneys be interested in that, when MicroSoft was in one of the biggest anti-trust cases in history, and we don't have a Port in Puget Sound?)

Let's hope that nobody has any personal agendas about the Graves Building. That just is NOT allowed on a college campus.

So, we're being monitored? Let's all step it up a notch, shall we?

IMO candidates for a UW head coach should have the following on their resume:

1) History of success as a head coach.
2) Experience as an assistant or coordinator under an elite coach and at a top tier program or an NFL team.

I do not think those are unreasonable.

I agree with #1 but don't give a flying fuck about #2. I'd change #2 as has demonstrated to be a successful coordinator at other schools.

I like Tim DeRuyter not only because of his head coaching W-L but also because every school he has coached at as a DC he improved them over night. These weren't your stacked programs like Sark/Kiffin had USC either.

In fact as a past coordinator I'd rather the coach have coached at a school where he had success but at a school where he didn't have the best talent week in and week out like Sark/Kiffin/Holt/Chow did while at USC.

Your argument is sound, #1 is far more important than #2. DeRuyter was the DC at A&M too so he had a taste of big-time football from recruiting/media/limelight standpoints. I guess it isn't a game-changer to have but it certainly helps in adapting.

I couldn't agree more. Taking the same players and getting a better result could only be a result of improved coaching. Obviously, Sark is better than the worst coach in the history of college football, and the players were motivated by any new coach. I also like DeRuyter, but Mora is from the Don James coaching tree. Mora #1, DeRuyter #2.

Regarding #2, the experience has to come at multiple schools. One of Sark's biggest issues is that he only knows how Pete Carroll did things leaving him with depth or breadth of knowledge to lead a successful college football program.
