Poor journalism, no report on Ivan.

The not yelling at players stuff pretty much explains everything.

Just wait until he brings a tiger to practice. Then loses the game.

An emphasis on speed has naturally led to an increase in mistakes as the players adapt to a new system. These mistakes are not punished, or even reprimanded, but rather embraced and viewed as opportunities for improvement.

I like to encourage and embrace mistakes. I see no evidence that they lead to penalties, dropped balls, missed tackles, turnovers, and losses. Then I take the entire team out for sloppy joes.

“When you make a mistake, you don’t want to get yelled at, because it puts you in a mood like you don’t know how to play,” said redshirt freshman cornerback Chris Hawkins. “When you make a mistake, and [Sarkisian] says, ‘Don’t worry about it, we’re gonna fix it,’ that keeps you in the spirit, and you can still play fast.”

With a philosophy centered on positivity and constant activity, Sarkisian seems to have found a winning combination."

maybe i'm getting april fools whooshed, but you can't make this shit up

"Our brahs aren't worried about Oregon's football team. I took our dudes down to the park, and pointed to those ducks floating in the pond. I brought the team close and said, 'listen guys, see those ducks in the pond? that's Oregon man'. A lot of our kids had never seen ducks up close and personal before, I think it was a real cool experience for them. Like, just settle down man, kinda thing, ya know?"

USC fans are going to light this fat fuck up when UCLA plungers him, loses to ND at home as well 1-2 other blow outs on the road.

His philosophy on mistakes really explains why UW was so sloppy in every fucking facet of the game.

His comments really do encapsulate why we never had any discipline or consistency for five fucking years.

With the team’s season opener a long five months away, however, positive practices will have to do when trying to assess the Trojans’ new head coach, and by that measure the new era of USC football is off to a good start.incremental progress

For a team that’s seen so much change in the past year, perhaps the players can finally settle into a routine — move quickly, and ask questions later. you have no idea the damage Ed did

We're getting trolled

In defense of Sloppy Seven, if anyone knows improvement, it's him. It might be unconventional, but it gets results. How many coaches can say they took a team from 4-5 to 5-4, 5-4, 5-4 and 5-4?

Show some respect.

I think a better message would be to take his players to the pond and have them shoot ducks with BB guns. Or arrows would be more appropriate for Trojans.

He just wanted to make sure the players weren't intimidated. Worked wonders @ LSU

You talkin bout Sark and practice, man. Not the game, not the game, not the game that he bangs waitresses and shoots Patron all week in preparation for. You talkin bout practice.

While this fluff piece is being written, we get fat curmudgeons like F3 writing an assessment of UW's spring for collegefootballnews.com and insinuating Peetamus is having a hard time getting players to buy into his style. How the fuck does fetters even know this?

With an offense predicated on quick pace, Sarkisian and his assistants are constantly running, diving and hollering with players during drills and scrimmages. Shouts of “No walking!” are routinely heard, with players scrambling to their proper assignments in a frenzy of controlled pure and utter chaos.

Fixed.

Obvious fix.

Are you saying you'd rather have a fluff piece written about Peterman?
