Was a DC for 8 years amid 20 years as an assistant, including 3 years as DC at Ohio St.
Prior to coming to MSU they went 5-5-4. He goes 7-9-6-11-11-7 and likely another 11 this year.
Not a sexy hire but a solid coach who proved he was a good hire immediately and then very good in years 4 and 5. Not saying we should hire him but it shows you two things. First, Sark looks like a fucking high school coach compared to the top 20 coaches and second, a boring but solid coach will prove his worth early and pay huge dividends over time.

I would like a coach with a proven track record as a head coach myself. What is his conference record? I know teams have a habit of padding their W-L.

He's definitely in my top 3 or 4. I'm not sure of his conference record but he's made five or six straight bowls, has owned Michigan, and has made some Big 10 Championship Games. With him, the lines would be solved within a year or two, there wouldn't be very many blowout losses, and we would win at least 9 or 10 most years.

I like him.. But he hasn't gotten to a big (BCS) bowl ... So he hasn't won one.. Good coaches are good in big games ...
But if it was him or Sark.. I'm with Dantonionionionno ... -

He's coached under Tressel and Saban.

Id take him over Sark ANYDAY, if only to find a position for Wooching, get the ball to the TE and keep Oregon off the fucking field. After watching MSU, I realize how soft UW is.

Minnesota would grind our faces into the field turf. The Big10 will be back next year, and physical as ever.

Did it really take you until 11/2/13 to realize the UW team was soft?puppylove_sugarsteel said:Id take him over Sark ANYDAY, if only to find a position for Wooching, get the ball to the TE and keep Oregon off the fucking field. After watching MSU, I realize how soft UW is.
Benefit of the doubt is strong with PL_SS.

For DC, fine. But his offenses are a dreckfest. No thanks.
-
I wouldn't root for him to lose just so I could be right. He strikes me as a good Husky coach. Better record than Saban at State?
-
I like him because he would win more games than Sark and would have tough teams. Who gives a fuck about Wooching? If he plays, great, if not, who cares. I don't think a fullback playing or not is going to make or break the program. Do you want us to poach Sonny Dykes from Cal because he would get the ball to Kasen?puppylove_sugarsteel said:Id take him over Sark ANYDAY, if only to find a position for Wooching, get the ball to the TE and keep Oregon off the fucking field.
