Will Sark ever sign a stud tailback from SoCal?
Take away Sankey (who Sark got lucky with, and is awesome but was hounded by WSU and Maryland), and Sark has managed to wrestle Eric (ive already transferred because I'm too slight) Wilson, Richard (dezden) Petty, John Taylor's 15th cousin/nephew/godson Kendyl (who was recruited for WR/slot), Dwayne Washington (a WR), Jesse Callier etc...etc...etc.. Some very good runners, but no Joe Mixon or Justin Davis
Can Sark just take time out his busy-ass schedule and bring in a true SoCal stud at tailback? Maybe he can borrow a scholarship reserved for a Kingco , Crest, or other powerhouse eastside league's player-of-the-year?
Washington has typically struggled for top-flight tailbacks from SoCal, but the guys from Dawgman say that Washington has the best recruiting staff in the conference. Well? Sheesh if WR's (the least important position on offense) were tailbacks and olinemen, we just might have something here. Too late David Shaw and Harbaugh already figured that out.

Why do you care where the kid comes from if he is a stud rb?

wake me up when Sark focuses on OL. TIA

There are only a handful of starting SoCal RBs in the NFL: Arian Foster (hardly a top recruit) Doug Martin (recruited by Boise State and Cal Poly in HS) Maurice Jones-Drew (Top prospect) Marshawn Lynch (like Foster, hardly a "top" recruit).
The top SoCal recruit to start in the NFL right now? Reginald Bush....one of the biggest busts in NFL history. Those "top-flight" RBs in SoCal rarely turn into something special....few of them ever become as good as a player like Bishop Sankey. The RBs at the top of the recruiting rankings rarely pan out at all. Sark may have his issues, but RB doesn't seem to be one of them. -

Its fine if you want talk So Cal running backs. But if you talk about the NFL you're gone. How did Reggie Bush do in college?
-
Might want to check Reggie Bush NFL career. Hardly a bust and is actually a pretty good back.
Also of all the things to bitch about Sark you bring up lack of SoCal RB's?! -
That depends on how you want to define bust. He hasn't come close to living up to expectations so in that sense he is a bust.He_Needs_More_Time said:Might want to check Reggie Bush NFL career. Hardly a bust and is actually a pretty good back.

He's ran for a thousand yards and was a big part of a Super Bowl champion.TheKobeStopper said:

I gotta agree. A player that basically every team could use is not a bust. He's also proven that he can be an everydown back the past few years.He_Needs_More_Time said:

This thread is fucking pointless. RB has been the least of our concerns under Sark.

El oh el. The list of shitty running backs that have run for 1000 yards is long and ya boy has done it exactly one time in 7 seasons. If you told anyone drafting a running back #2 overall that they'd rush for 1000 yards one time in 7 seasons they'd say he was a bust. And that "big part" of a Super Bowl champion was 390 yards rushing and 335 yards receiving. Big fucking deal.He_Needs_More_Time said:

Ty recruited a stud tailback from SoCal. If Ty did it, it can't possibly be that critical to success.

Saying someone is a bust is different than being a slight disappointment. Ryan Leaf, JaMarcus Russell, Tim Couch, David Carr, Kajana Carter (injuries), Lawrence Phillips, Vernon Gholston, Akili Smith. Those guys are busts. At worst, Bush was a great third down back and explosive punt returner for New Orleans. Maybe he should not have been the #2 pick, but he was a very useful player. The past two years for Miami have shown he can be an every down back, and Detroit thought enough of him to give him a good contract to be their main back. Part of the reason for his limited stats in New Orleans was that they had other quality backs. It's hard for me to call a good player a bust.TheKobeStopper said:

At least Reggie is still in the league, unlike the guy picked after him.RoadDawg55 said:

This thread sucks. Nip (or was it Nap) Kaufman is in the top 3 all time at UW. His time in the NFL was average. Polk is also in the top three. I expect his career to be average. So the fuck what? If Bush played for UW he would be remembered as one of the greats of a all time.
UW needs great college running backs. The point is Sark hasn't really recruited any top tier players in that position that have produced. Yeah, Cooper was a stud on paper...nice. Woulda shoulda coulda. Rick recruited some stud lineman who never contributed. -
This thread should be called "Will Sark ever sign a stud Offensive Tackle from anywhere?"
RB has been one of our strongest positions since he took over -

Classy picture

More on topic..

Man oh man..Race! How do you do it!

The world's most uninteresting coach

Stay average, my friends.

Uh dummy, read the post. I wasn't talking about Sark at USC. Oh the geniuses are coming out of the woodwork! No wonder we're 7-6. The fanbase is retarded.He_Needs_More_Time said:Might want to check Reggie Bush NFL career. Hardly a bust and is actually a pretty good back.

Correct Dabone! Fuck I thought I made a clear post. Here comes the doogman dingleberries! Welcome, but get yo head out yo collective asses! sheesh! -
Actually I usually complain about Sark's Oline recruiting, specifically eastside linemen. they havent panned out in 30 years. See Nathan Dean buddy! Now we've got 14 scholarship linemen. yippie!!!!TMacDawg said:

RB has not been Sark's strong suit. He recruited Sankey. The rest have been injured or ineffective over a 13-game season.bananasnblondes said:This thread should be called "Will Sark ever sign a stud Offensive Tackle from anywhere?"

ver
After 2014, when Sark is the offensive coordinator at Wyoming, UW's new coach is going to struggle to maintain .500 for the bulk of his contract. Until at least year 4, when he/she actually recruits 5 linemen a year.
I'm not an alarmist, just a realist. UW is in BIG trouble when this Jr. offensive line graduates. Its embarrassing how Sark has cut corners at the expense of the oline -

He's not even close to being a bust.
Before last season, the guy had less than 3,200 yards in six NFL seasons. Last season, he had 986. His YPC is decent, but not outstanding.
http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/9588/reggie-bush
I used to call him a bust all the time during his first few years. Given all the hype he received in college, I'll stick with that. He's 28, so he probably has one, two, or maybe three years left....he could be the rare Marcus Allen or Hershel Walker type that can play at a fairly high level in this thirties, but that's doubtful. -

Im not so worried about a stud RB from SoCal as I am a stud DT from West Arizona or a stud OLB from mid Nevada.

Take it to the O line board
