    Wow.

    We know what we have.

    The question now becomes ...

    Do we accept it, or do we improve on it?

    Nowhere near contending for the conference championship once in five years. Nowhere close to winning championships and Rose Bowls.

    But he can recruit!! What would we do if we lost him? He's doing it the right way...Huge and Baird say so.

    Sark has moved down the pecking order. Now top recruits will wait to see what USC and UCLA offer in addition to Oregon before committing to Sark. Once committed, coaches like Riley and Leach will pick off who they want reminding recruits Sark is a Lameduck coach with a short term contract and too few wins with an AD who has bond payments to make on revenue promised from an ever growing grumbling fan base.

    Wins are important, but remember, so is culture.

    So if those kids want to go to SC or UCLA ... or even Oregon ... let'em.

    Because we have a special culture.

    Fetters said he can't debate the facts or even call them average, but there is no point to rehash negative stuff from the past. It's about where we are going.

    3-11 vs top 25 teams the last 3 seasons. Thats after starting 5-7 the first two years. Pathetic.

    It's interesting to contrast those who embrace change and understand that we could get a dud but you have to take the risk irregardless. Then you have the faction who says change will be disastrous and detrimental to recruiting and those who are already committed. We have had a decent number of 4 stars mixed with a few five stars, linemen who are falling out or not developing, and there's no need to rehash W/L and on field performance. I don't understand how that faction can't at least listen while their heads are crammed clean up their own asses.

    How did Baird escape being fired by DJ?

    Like you said in your firesark blog the 0-12 excuse didn't start coming up until 2011. I don't recall them bringing up 0-12 the first two years when that could have been used.

    Fact: I gave a few hundred dollars to Wisconsin (my other alma mater) today and none to Washington. That is much more meaningful than any football related statistic I could dig up.

    If people can't grasp the concept of 0.500 I doubt lists of numbers are going to help. It's like trying to explain the difference between a violin and a fiddle to a horse that had been kicked int the head by another horse.

    Can't blame you...looks like Wisconsin made a great hire in Gary Anderson while the Doogiest of Doogs are worried that if we drop the ugly chick we have, we'll end up with a heinous chick. I just can't understand that defeatist thinking...is that the philosophy of a winner? I wonder what this great human being would tell them if he was still alive

    I prefer to look at so-called ranked opponents differently. To me, I don't give a shit if Boise State was ranked because of some preseason bullshit. Or put it this way: should ASU get extra credit for beating us because we were mistakenly ranked? By the end of the year the polls reflect who you actually are. With that in mind, I come up with:

    2009 0-3
    2010 1-3
    2011 0-5
    2012 2-3
    2013 0-4 (BSU won't make the final poll but I think ASU will)

    So I get 3-18. Breaking those numbers down further:

    - 9 of those games were away. We have lost all 9 by an average of 25 points (47-22).
    - 9 of those are home games. We have lost 7 of them. In total, the average score of those games is 17 (UW) -32 (Opponents).
    - The 3 neutral games (all bowls) shows an amazing Don James-like trait. We are 1-2 but have been outscored by only 1 point total (102-101).
    - Overall, we are outscored by 17 points in games against teams that end up ranked. The average score for us losing is 39-22.

    You need to post this on the Seattle Times comments to the Larry Stone article.
