Last year I called for a change to the O-line coach. Not only because we've consistently underperformed since he's been here, but also because top-tier OLs simply don't want to play for him. How do I know that? Because they commit to (and play for) other schools.
Anyway, I copied some of the responses so that I could throw it back in peoples' faces. Well, since kim jong-il banned me for life, I won't be able to do that. So, here is a snapshot for your viewing pleasure. Gotta love these quotes:
Kim Grinolds: Some out here are just wired to look for what's wrong instead of what's right.
GREATBIGBUTT: You are right on track, Kim.
Gumpon505: +1 Kim.
Cfetters: Amazing that Price and Polk were able to produce record-setting numbers despite the OL clearly sucking (at least that's what you're telling me) AND being hurt. Cozzetto has coached on the west coast - both in college AND the NFL - for basically two decades, but now all of a sudden he's not 'exceptional'?
Oahu dawg: Coz is fine. Coz is part of the solution to take UW back to were it was in the 1990s.
Jbhusky: +1000 oahu dawg.
CKDawg: Thanks Oahu. The offense was not the problem.
Marinadawg: I'm good with Coz.
Ordawg: The O-line failed because of execution and that was mainly caused by lack of experience.
Polarbill1999: Well said Ordawg
100Mile: Our offense averaged over 33 ppg last year. The Oline contributed.
Odeadawg: Well said Fetters.
DAWGS1234: How many points did we score? How many yards? If you think we did that in spite of the Oline, you don't know football as well as you think you do
Binderdawg: Its typical logic on this board!! When someone has an axe to grind they pick out only the "bad" stats. that make their point
Chavelle: Coz has a proven record and his philosophies and teachings have spanned 3 decades and that should be noted. Experience wins championships! I think we all on the board respect Coz.
Betazk41: I swear so many of you just want something to piss and moan about. It's just ridiculous sometimes... Hear that phone ringing over there? You mind picking it up, yeah it's reality calling, inviting you to join the party.
Psiu07: There's no such thing as Price breaking every passing record and Polk running for 1,500 yards 'in spite' of the line. It's because of the line, plain and simple.
Junodawg: Passion uses a very small statistical sample from two years at UW with a very young and inexperienced offensive line.
UWDawgyDawg: Your initial request was that Coach Cozzetto be as successful as Coach Lupoi at recruiting. I'd agree that, by those standards, everybody else needs to improve, as well. IMHO, it's like expecting everyone on USC's staff to be as exceptional at recruiting as Orgeron. Everyone brings different strengths and weaknesses to the table.
steelheader1: COZ was coach of the year in my opinion last year.
DugTheDawg: Cozz is not the problem.

Why do you think he always says, "Dig a little deeper?" Or my favorite, "Just talk to people who would know." Well fuck Kim, I can't take the time to drive up to UW today because I own my own bidness that requires being outside in the elements 7 days a week rather than being on the fucking Internet arguing with fucking doogs all day.
Once Willingham came around, it wasn't Ty's losing that bothered Kim and Fleenor so much as it was Ty shutting them out. Ty didn't let Kim have his run of the team hotel like Neu did, he didn't give Kim off the record bullshit. Yeah, Ty was a shitty head coach and did a shitty job of promoting the program. But Kim wasn't pissed that his toy sucked, he was pissed that his toy got taken away.
Now Sark and Woody come along. While they don't let him run amok in the team hotel anymore, they do give him off the record shit. And he loves it. He's not going to jeopardize that over being slightly critical of Sark, Cozz, or Woody.
Once you learn these facts, the easier you can come to grips that Doogman isn't in the business for giving their customers the best Husky news around...They're in business to take your fucking money, so Kim doesn't have to sell his bullshit real estate, and he can get his inside info and rumors.
The facts have been checked. The case has been closed. The discussion has ended.
Now I'm hearing Price just sucks. Still not the lines fault.
You're a Mexican?
Like I said, pathetic.
you will notice that the only place the UW football has been relatively good at is having good running backs (despite Sarks 3-5 WR sets in the shotgun or predictable play calling)... That coach is now gone
Sark has turned UW into a stepping stone for young coaches who have it and a resting place and massive paycheck for those who dont.
There is not a single assistant coach out there who thinks they should study under sark or at UW and learn new things no other coach will teach them. Sark doesnt have the knowledge to mold his coaching staff so he over pays for has beens and/or hires unknowns to run the team and hopes it works out.
Cozz is a symptom of the problem just like baer to donatell was
