Why has Sark been shielded?

If you go to the USC boreds, they're telling us they weren't happy when Sark was hired and knew he was a mediocre post.Vegasdawg said:I was reading General Sweatpants post (A+), and it spurred me to start this thread. When Sark arrived at Washington I felt that we would be subjected to all the misques that his learning curve would entail. I referred to his coaching as a training wheels course where eventually he would be free peddling, him having learned the head coaching craft. But when year one became year three and we were stuck in a vortex similar to "Groundhog Day" the movie, I figured he had peaked and it was time to re-boot. And then came the excuses and what grew into a bullet proof shield. Sure, many were grumbling and speaking out, and more as the results remained the same. And the shield became more visible. And then Pat Haden hired Sark away. But why would USC, Pat Haden, the Sports media, and thousands of intelligent and knowledgeable fans across the land shield a mediocre coaching talent like Sark? Has this been a mass hysteria- psychological event we have witnessed, that no amount of shouting out warnings could get through? How could his accomplishments have been taken as anything short of a disaster? Why was this guy shielded and why is he still being shielded?
And that everything they posted about him after the Fresno and Stanford games were just lies, plain and simple. -
OK, but why has he been shielded? It's not logical to have Sark as head coach of any major college football team. Am I missing something?

You ask a great question.
There's a book called "Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds," which gets at the phenomenon you are describing. Me, I think much of this nonsense is rooted in tribalism. -
Armenian Mafia.

He's felt more heat from the LA media in three games than he got from the fag Seattle media in five years.
Why? That's how they roll. Why Haden didn't talk to us first is the question -

This country voted in Obama twice. Delusion is alive and well in 'Murica.

if you are prepared to suck up to the media and include them, then you're doing all the heavy lifting for them and they will love you for it... until they don't of course. there will always be the odd reporter who tries to really critique a slacker like Sark, but for the networks like ESPN that have to generate content so frequently, they absolutely adore having a guy like Sark and thus will not burn him at the stake... until they do, of course. Sark is obviously a savvy media type who has turned this into a cash cow.

i doubt the madness of crowds and daffodil mania and mob mentality has anything to do with this.AZDuck said:You ask a great question.

Because he is a politician hired by other politicians for his yak and blab. He is not a coach. You all were done a disservice.Vegasdawg said:OK, but why has he been shielded? It's not logical to have Sark as head coach of any major college football team. Am I missing something?

The same fucktardedness of "everyone else is doing this, OMG I think I should do this too" is a big part of CFB fan delusion, IMOMeek said:

Well Haden hired him, and will never admit that was a mistake. When he fires Sark, he'll say Sark was not ready for the big time and didn't succeed like he did at UW.
Sark made a lot of mistakes at UW and I felt like he recruited from Scout rather than actually watching film. But he did what was asked, last two years he should have had more wins and I wanted to stab him watching him throw 4 straight bubble screens on first and goal.
LA media won't be as kind as Seattle as he already is doing the same stupid shit as kitten did.
For the fans? They want to see their guy succeed. They'll support him until they learn who he is. It's fine. We got Peterman. They got their Ty. -
Wouldn't have made a difference. We would have given him a ringing endorsement so that he would get hired away.RaceBannon said:He's felt more heat from the LA media in three games than he got from the fag Seattle media in five years.

Besides, Haden is probably the type of person who thinks he's the smartest guy in the room... well, other than Sark that is. -
I would have told Haden Sark was the best play caller in the country and that we would hate to see him leave UW.RaceBannon said:He's felt more heat from the LA media in three games than he got from the fag Seattle media in five years.

Edit: Sorry Baze. Didn't see your post directly above mine. -

YRYK. I never would have even thought of committing my first parking lot rape but you know, when in Rome and all that.AZDuck said:

This is where you lost me. El Siete wasn't a disaster. He was just mediocre.Vegasdawg said:How could his accomplishments have been taken as anything short of a disaster?
The trouble is, Husky Football has been so down for so long, many fans have either forgotten what good coaching looks like or are too young to know. (Fortunately, they're finally now starting to learn again.)
El Siete embodies the purgatory of low expectations. -

1.He didn't want to be a husky.
2.He was a coach to band-aid the program from the STyrone Ages.
3. He wears libtarded frat boy hats on the sideline.
4. NMP (not my problem) anymore.
5.???
6. Profit.

but, but, but, but... he told the local media on day 1 when Woody rolled out all those coffee cups full of cash and mixed in a boat and an interest free loan that doesn't require payments until 2353 for a house on the beach that he wanted to be the next Don James and be here forever.MisterEm said:1.He didn't want to be a husky.
