    Yep, he wasn't perfect.

    He was a huge upgrade though.

    Biggest reason 7 win Sark had a team win 9.

    That wasn't happening with Holt.

    Coordinators are on the head coach. The better the head man the better the coordinator.

    Justin Wilcocks was not better than Nick Holt because Sark was still the coach

    Quite honestly I have no idea if Jimmy has a thin rolodex or no one wants to work for him or if he thought Donavon and Gregory were the guys. In just over a week we begin to find out. If UW wins coaches will be calling Jimmy and his rolodex will fatten

    I don't buy the coach speak from the guy who took more money to go to Texas as the damning indictment that many here do. As always I could be wrong. But probably not

    The better the coordinator hires, the better the head coach will appear to be (W-L’s).

    Remember, coordinators are usually sacrificed before the Big Guy is canned. See Nick Holt.

    IMHO

    I think the overarching point is correct. It always comes back to the head coach.

    You can tell good assistants from really bad ones in most cases though. Wilcox is a good defensive coach. It wasn't hard to see the immediate improvement over Holt.

    My guess is that Petersen would have had similarly good defenses at UW with Wilcox as DC as he had with Kawasaki. There's a hell of a lot more to it than scheme. The HC is responsible for the culture, work ethic and all that other gay stuff but he's also ultimately responsible for the personnel. Petersen was a good roster builder. Sark was not.

    I expect Texas and Sark to still give up 50 to Oklahoma even with Kwat even with Herman players

    Sounds like I agree with you
