Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

What grade would you give Scott Woodward as a football AD?

    He'd get an A if we didn't languish under Sark for an extra year (and hire him in the first place).

    Fell ass backwards into the one good decision he's ever made: Hiring Petersen.

    I gave him a B because results are results, but he did luck out by Pat Haden being dumb enough to hire Sark. I'm not sure what grade to give him. He could be a total fucktard, but somehow he has gotten good things done.

    D because I honestly don't have faith that without our friend Pat Haden we'd still be living in House Sarkisian.... I hated the Sark hire from day 1 and it made zero sense that Woody took that risk... also I'm going to add in the relationship with our other good friend Mark "But Why Was He a Bad President" Emmert.

    The uniforms are a fucking dreckfest too... white helmets? black shit everywhere?

    A.

    At the end of the day, he got a beautiful new stadium done and he got an Adult to run the football program. Both in-spite of long odds against.

    Both true, and both A worthy efforts.

    OTOH, kept Ty for a fourth year and hired Sark.

    That's not an A.

    I'd give him an A for the last two years, but a B overall.
    Turner was the AD when Willingham was retained. Woodward did not officially become the AD until August 2008.

    I took some shit for defending him on Dawgbored, was called a Doog etc., so if it was some of you go fuck yourself. This was probably about November of 2012. Anyway, I'd give him a B. As fun as it is the pile on Sarkisian, that hire left the program in a place where a good coach can take it to the next level. He got the stadium done in THIS economy, and I'm almost positive Peterson will do really well. I haven't been this excited about a football hire since Holmgren.

    Sark leaving to USC was total luck.

    However, some of you aren't giving him nearly enough credit for snatching up Petersen or getting the stadium deal done.

    A, at least right now. He made a smart hire. I don't know much about him otherwise.

    B+ with the possibility to earn an A. UW was a fucking disaster when he got here, and the trajectory has been nothing but upward since he has arrived. If Peterman does what we think he will, and if Romar gets axed, Woody will be a legend around these parts.

    I'd say B- if it was an option.

    He could raise it to an A- by making a good replacement of Romar.

    It probably wasn't 100%, gee-I-won-Publisher's-Clearinghouse luck. Sark was probably talking to HADENFS In October, or their people were talking to each other, and Woodward probably knew about it.
