    The very first time I questioned Sark was when we lost 41-0 to Stanford in 2010. That was a pathetic showing, and I thought something was wrong to lose like that. He ended up redeeming that loss by winning 4 straight to close the year. I know Nebraska didn't want to be there, but I loved the physical football we played in that game on both sides of the ball. I actually thought Sark had learned.

    This was similar to the 2011 Oregon St game and Keith Price healthy enough to play but not to start.

    Sark and I'm assuming Cozzetto decided to start Porter at right guard and Kohler at right tackle as true freshmen, meanwhile, normal starters Cristine (guard) and Habben (tackle) sat but came in by the 3rd or 4th series (mostly 3 and outs) after Kohler and Porter were getting abused. Porter, prior to his shoulder injury, was on track to be a great offensive lineman but to put 2 true freshmen side by side against a pretty good Stanford D was nearly criminal.

    Yep, I remember that. Then Sark does the same shit and plays Brostek two years later. I have a hard time believing Brostek was thriving in practice, so why the fuck did thy throw him out there.

    He played bad against Portland State, was a turnstile against Stanford for a couple of series, and was rarely seen again after that. By the end of the year, he was moved to DL.

    There not one great college coach that calls his own plays.

    The Head Coach is a general, watching the big picture, not a captain leading a platoon in battle.

    Cream Puff has Zero feel for the flow of the game. His head is always buried in the playbook. Watch him. He's devising plays in his head, in a complete vacuum. That's why he pulls these off the wall plays out of his ass. In reality, he probably doesn't see how our run blocking actually works at times and Sankey is pounding it even if a run or two don't produce much. I'm not trying to be snarky and cute. This is what I see, maybe I'm wrong.

    The only reason this guy had any success as OC at U$C is the talent level. I could have called plays for those teams and look like a genius.

    Harbaugh and Kelly were hacks in college!!!!!

    Harbaugh had an OC calling his plays? If so, I stand corrected. Even so, mentioning Stevie and Harbaugh in the same breath is a stretch.

    Also, I'm in SEC territory, I don't get to see Stanford that often.

    You stated no great college coaches call their own plays. Harbaugh and Kelly both called their own plays while in college. I just assumed you put them in the crappy category. Had nothing to do with Sark. It had to do with your making ignorant statements about there being no great Head Coaches that call their own plays. Carroll also called the defensive plays at USC.

    Most educated Husky fans could give two (fetter) shits if Sark was calling plays, if he was good at it. Harbaugh and Kelly called plays like a boxer. Everything was strategic, where it would set up another play call made two quarters later. Sark calls plays like you would in a video game. That's what pisses people off.

    But he doesn't support Sark although every post he makes sounds like a pro Sark post.

    How can calling out a poster for stating "No great college coaches call their own plays".........be interpreted as supporting Sark? I've stated several times the past few weeks I don't like the offense Sark runs. It's not about play calling, it's not about Run/Pass ratio....it's about a crappy passing scheme.

    I guess I should just let you guys all circle jerk to statements about great coaches not calling their own plays.

    Why is it every time one of you fucktards get's called out for a stupid comment like the one above....it equates to Supporting Sark?
