    Great bitter and political cult of personality stomp your feet article as always. We dodged a bullet on Mora. Everybody says so

    He will implode soon. I'm hearing he flys into a rage when someone calls him Jim Mora Jr.

    I was curious how Paul Allen let Mora out of his CONTRACT. Any scoop on that?

    Disagree. Emmert could have changed history.

    Dodged a big time bullet. Never trust a guy with beady eyes and Mora has beady eyes...

    Mora was unproven as a college coach head coach. So glad we went with a guy with college head coaching experience and a big price tag.

    Fantastic job with an alternate perspective on Husky football. This is a much needed criticism of an unproven head coach who still has a LOT to learn about just being the MAN in what we all wish to be a big time program. Optimist or pessimist should be able to see our reality. If it were not for MISTER Wilcox and his staff, I think there would be a lot more unhappy fans. I will say the program was so far down, it is not surprising we are not back yet. This does not excuse the obvious coaching errors on the field and their lack of adjustments and/ or preparation.

    I love this mock story. Maybe not two rose bowls for Mora, but at least one, like every other husky coach that was worth his weight. Sark has already fell short of that tradition. Now people are hoping for 9 wins.

    On the other board I said I EXPECTED 10 wins, realistic or not, and got ran off. How many times do I have to say that that should be expected in year 5 of any coache's tenure. Sark should be expected to win 10' games in his 5th year. That's it. Pretty ssimple. Not win the national title, just win 10. 6-7-8-9-10! That's a one-game improvement every year. Not much to ask for.
    Not going to get into the variables the excuse-makers always use.

    Ill get into this later as I finally have A forum I can tell the truth, without getting ridiculed by a bunch of Rosey, clueless, Johnny-come-lately husky fans with a keyboard but no clue. I rarely even post there anymore. God bless this site, and thank you North for the invitation!

    This is 2013. Things are different than the used to be. If you expect tough lines, and serious game prep, well, you're just looking for things the be disappointed about. Just exactly who is better than Sark that would take the job. Everyone else turned it down. Stop being silly and move forward.

    Steel, you have always been an entertaining poster, but you ask for some of the ridicule you get on dawgman when you predict Cal is going to win the Pac 12 North. You might not be a rosey, Johnny-come-lately Husky fan, but you have proven to be clueless many times.
