    Thank you for the concise and clear numbers on SSWS's diminishing margins of return on his offense as the season progresses and opposing defenses get more film. Sure the dead cat bounces of Cal and Colorado will massage the numbers upwards but Anthony Barr, Myles Jack, and company are ready to pound Sark and Cozzetto's honey-holes.

    Regarding the $6 million idea, admittedly it wasn't my best (and not that accurate either). May be saying something you already know but the buyout is only 70% of what he's owed for 2014 and 2015 so $3.85 million is the ball-park magic number. Is that really insurmountable with the new Pac-12 TV contract and likely higher concessions and ticket sales at the best setting in all of CFB?

    Gosh if I'm SSWS, I'd resign after getting my face rubbed in Reser Stadium's turf by Mike Riley for a 3rd time and take $1 million with a chance to go quietly while getting out relatively unscathed and my reputation mostly intact. Last year, some ubers wanted SSWS gone and Wilcox promoted after the dual AC and BSU Bowl game debacles but Woodward wanted to save the 2013 class (and his own ass). Word on the street is that even more ubers want him gone now and if Woodward doesn't make the decision due to the spirit of self-preservation, they'll get rid of him too. Even non-ubers like me can see we are in danger of going the way of the Mariner's (is Sark similar to Chuck Armstrong and Woodward our Howard Lincoln?). The Seahawks have had a great 15 years because they were willing to eject mediocre Seven Win Steves like Flores and Erickson to hit pay-dirt with coaches like Mike Holmgren and Pete Carroll. Are we becoming one of the only Pac-12 programs that is ok with settling? If we held onto Victor Place would we have landed Gil Dobie? How about if we kept Jim Owens around longer would we have ever landed Don James? If we keep SSWS around for an unearned 6th year, could we miss out on a rising star like DJ in Tim DeRuyter or Pete Lembo?

    God enable the ubers if it means we can be rid of Sark and Woodward. Double pleasure.

    What does Woodward know about football anyway? I don't want some political operative calling the shots again...he'll hold onto SSWS just so he can collect another $400k or whatever he's paid and pray he wins 6 conference games in 2014 so he can collect another big salary. If Woodward is selfish and protects his own interests (his ass and his bank-account) can Husky Nation force his hand after Riley perforates SSWS for his 5th conference loss? Hard to believe a non-football AD and some with their heads up their asses could still end up calling the shots out of their own best interests. Or will they get away with it?

    STAY!!!!!

    After the likely Corvallis perforation, if Woodward doesn't act, what about flying a plane around the city skies with some sort of banner calling out Woodward?

    What's so sad is that I was talking with a few friends this evening over drinks and we came to the conclusion that SSWS is a poor man's Rick Neuheisel. Both didn't/don't recruit the OL/DL enough or very well but at least Neuheisel wasn't as sloppy or mediocre in his time on Montlake.

    Given Kim's track record bet the opposite and you'll never have to work again.

    Hi Kim!

    Woodward knows nothing about football. I tried to Google and failed to find the specific picture, but you should see how Woodward held the football. A guy is an AD, watches numerous practices, 13 games a year, and he still doesn't know how to hold a football? It's unreal.

    To your other point, I actually think Woodward has built up some goodwill with getting the new stadium built. If he fired Sark, he would get another hire to prove if he was right for the job. If he retains Sark for another year or two, his goodwill he built may erode and he will find himself getting fired along with Sark. Just thinking out loud here.

    Thanks for the kind welcome and glad to be here. I hope my source is onto something about Woodward's seat starting to get hot if he keeps on insisting giving SSWS a 6th year. For whose benefit anyway? Seems like only he and SSWS would win and the rest of us who have been giving our hearts and wallets to Husky Football for decades will lose.

    How about we all keep our ears to the ground over the next few weeks? The positive thing is that I've never seen Husky Nation as united in seeing that The Boy Emperor (not a man) has no clothes...the ST blog is full of it and DM.com may be moving to 50/50 because of data-driven analysis like He_Needs_More_Time (amazing name and that picture is worth a thousand words) brought to the table to kick this thread off.

    Welcome to the bored, HFNY. 5 star pickup for HardcoreHusky.

    Sounds like you should be writing Meanderings and not AAANDY. This is the type of info that dawgman no longer has (or never had quite frankly).

    I hope the ubers walk into Woodward's office with their big swinging dicks and give SW an ultimatum.

    Have to look at Pete Lembo, maybe he the same caliber candidate as Mora, DeRuyter and Bohl.

    For more analysis you can listen to our latest podcast episode...as long as you don't mind F-bombs and vitriol aimed at Sark and others who are bad for the program.

  • For an "offensive genius" this is the worst offense in our lifetime. If you exclude the 0-12 year when Locker was hurt/the team quit Sark's offense is worse than any offense in our lifetime(comparably to the times)
