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

Better a Stepping Stone than a Graveyard?

THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN

Jim L: 6 years FIRED

Rick N: 4 years FIRED

Keith G: 2 years FIRED

Tyrone W: 4 years FIRED

Steve S: 5 years STEPPING STONE!

Chris P: 6 years QUIT

Jimmy L: 2 years FIRED

In the same timeframe Oregon.

MB moved to AD.
CK to the NFL, Stepping stone!
MH FIRED
SWT to FSU,Stepping stone!
MC to the U, Stepping stone!

Maybe DeB will be successful enough to stepping stone the UW.
History says he's fired in 4 years, roughly.

    How did Sark get 5 years and a USC job

    Then drink himself out of USC into the NFL and an OC job at Alabama

    Then moved to a high profile job at Texas where in year one he already had a worse season than they’ve had in decades?

    If I ever need to sell something, Sark is my first call.

    This time, it will be different.

    Just ask Jen.

    Or “Montana”: He’s got it all dialed in.

    “Montana”:
    Poor short-term memory (He attended UW when Willingham and Bark for Sark were HCs);
    He has witnessed the implosion of Husky football under Jimmy Lake;
    Selective long-term memory (Montana was probably still in diapers when Don James was around);
    Unrealistic expectations - Even Peterman couldn’t handle the heat from Doogs;
    Resilient as hell

    The highlight of his life is laying 70 on Helrich’s 4-8 team at Autzen.

    Hats off to Montana for his unbridled loyalty to UW football!

    I would have loved Peterman as HC at Oregon anytime.

    USC did not properly vet Sark before hiring him. They had no clue what was going on at UW in his personal life. Seems like everyone else that follows college football and some of his UW players were aware of what Sark, Wilcox and Tosh were up to outside of “work” AND Sark’s drinking/marital “problems”.

    His drinking problem did not start at USC.

    Oregon has had one coach leave to another college program where he wasn’t a multiple title winning player. Not really worried about the stepping stone thing.

    They didn't have a radio to listen to him slurring his words talking shit about CAL while admitting to recruiting violations.

    Graveyard of coaches, UW. You’re such an idiot.

    Reached into MWC for a HC.
