    What I noticed was Belton (is that his name) doing it alone for the first several games. Then a few players joined in sort of a mocking way. The were sort of making fun of it. Then more players joined in. I'm still thinking most of the players did it as a goof.

    If this is the case, it's yet another example of how soft Sark is. Any coach or leader doesn't need to be Pat Hill TUFF to instill discipline in a team.

    Belton (?) did start it. I remember reading an article about him and his lawnmower dance. I think you are right about it starting as a goof, but I think the lawnmower got to the point where you weren't being a team player if you didn't participate. I found it odd they had assistant strength coaches going up and down the sidelines encouraging players to join in. These guys are not 11 years old, and it is weird for anyone in the program to treat them as such.

    We may have 0-12, but that lawn mower fucktardness may be rock bottom for this program. Sark and Woody not firing that fool speaks volumes.

    Don't agree. We have been on a miserable run, but there's no reason we can't make it back to the top. It all depends on the coach. UW will never be a great team without a great coach. It's as simple as that.

    What makes you think woody will hire a great coach?

    Well hopefully him and Sark are a package deal and when we ax Sark, Woody goes as well. You raise a nice point though. It is hard to trust Woody to hire the right guy.
