Coach Peterson on the other hand, clearly has no playcalling acumen as evidenced by this lame duck attempt with Future insurance salesmen: https://youtube.com/watch?v=-5wjbc-UbHQ
Petersen has put more guys in the NFL in the past five years than Sark. I kinda think that sort of board will continue to do well for him.
Most of the guys Sark takes NFL credit for were recruited by Ty.
OK, so earlier you were saying that Sark is a better coach that Petersen because he recruited more stars at USC this year, even though every USC coach always has more stars than his UW counterpart.
Now you are saying Willingham is a better recruiter than Sark? Or what? Because Sark is certain not known for his player development.
I could be wrong, but I think Kim's asking for screen shots to be taken today
I thought you were the real Tequila? You have not been acting like the Tequila I have come to know. Or maybe he has 2 opposite personalities, one that loves Kim and one that doesn't.
The best class at UW in the last 10 years was recruited by TY
Just to give us something to discuss, I dug up the Scout rankings nationally for the UW since 2002. I used Scout, since for some odd reason Rivals did not show UW for 2014. There are some differences, but I used Scout for this exercise just because it had complete info.

Its interesting to go back and look at that 2010 class (Sark's opus). The 4 star guys who made that class so highly ranked were Hatchie, Porter, Kohler, Shirley, Montana, Potoae, Cooper, Chris Young, Sean Parker, and Kevin Smith.
Of all those, Sean Parker is the only one who I would say had a great career at UW. Smith had one outstanding year and would be a huge weapon next year if Sark would have used one of the multiple redshirt opportunities that Smith had.
In that entire class (of 31 players) only Kikaha, Tanigawa, Timu, and Riva have been pleasant surprises.
Here are some other names from that group: Darius Waters Zach Fogerson Brent Williams Taz Stevenson Victor Burnett Cooper Pulleur Lawrence Lagafuaina
The rest are guys like Hartvigson and Jamaal Kearse who had a few days in the sun early on but then got passed up
Do yeah, our best class in the last 12 years was actually pretty shitty
Given the ranking at the time and what materialized I'd give the nod to 2008 as the best class. That class produced Kearse, Polk, Kelemete, Ta'amu, as well as Justin Glenn and even though he was kind of a bust Middleton was pretty decent for two years.
I look forward to Petersen having more rounded classes as he'll coach up his kids. So you won't have like 1/3 of a class give you absolutely nothing.

Even though his Ranking was 3 spots higher than the 2008 class, the 2008 class produced at a much higher clip and has seen several members move on to successful nfl careers thus far.
I think 2011 is the best class, at least at the top. Sankey, Kasen, Shelton, ASJ, Peters, Charles, Feeney. It's not the deepest class, but all of those guys except possibly Feeney are NFL players.

Not a Sark fan, but this particular fact isn't an indictment.

As we all know Sark doesn't deal with hypotheticals.
