    May God bless you and keep you always
    May your wishes all come true
    May you always do for others
    And let others do for you
    May you build a ladder to the stars
    And climb on every rung
    May you stay forever young
    Forever young, forever young
    May you stay forever young

    May you grow up to be righteous
    May you grow up to be true
    May you always know the truth
    And see the lights surrounding you
    May you always be courageous
    Stand upright and be strong
    May you stay forever young
    Forever young, forever young
    May you stay forever young

    May your hands be always busy
    May your feet always be swift
    May you have a strong foundation
    When the winds of changes shift
    May your heart always be joyful
    And may your song always be sung
    May you stay forever young
    Forever young, forever young
    May you stay forever young

    Will this ever change? Do we rely on youth because they are better athletes or do we screw them up threw our "development process?" Both?

    Lack of preparedness, direction, attitude, toughness, player development and accountability. These are coaching problems. I hope I'm wrong, but I don't see things changing until a new head coach takes over.

    Nothing will change.

    As a bench warmer in the SEC, I played very little, but I did see how winning teams are built. Cream Puff is not even close.

    It's hard to buy the youth excuse when these mistakes are happening every year. What will the excuses be this year?

    Sark needs to go. I want to enjoy watching Husky Football again. I'm tried of watching a mediocre, soft team.

    Sarks best coaching performance was in 2009. He actually coached them pretty well. The record did not indicate that. The PLAYERS were two field goals away from a 9-4 season last year. Sark finished 7-6. His coaching has stagnated or went down hill since 2009.

    I'm from the 5-year fraternity. That's what you get as a head coach to win your conference. I have belief in Sark next year (his 5th). All the dawgman bitches will be happy with 9 wins. Only because nobody over there has a fucking clue. Sark SHOULD HAVE AND WAS 2 PLAYS AWAY FROM 9 WINS LAST YEAR. 10 wins is the benchmark for Snark next year, period, end of fucking story.

    I closely watched Bruce Snyder take 2 shitty teams, in the 90's,to near back-to-back national championships in YEAR 5 (ASU was one play or two away from the crystal ball vs Ohio St. in the rose bowl, Cal finished #8 If I recall correctly). His teams got noticeably better each year. They didn't finish 7-6 every year. Were talking about CAL AND ASU for fuck sake.

    Sark gets next year!!!!!! 18 starters and a senior qb. That usually means a pac10/12 champion. Oh fucking no, not Sark. He needs 7-10 years. One dipshit from fuckman.com said Sark needs 10 years because he took over an 0-12 team. Sark finished 6-7 in '09; hardly an 0-12 team (Les Miles was amazed that team was 0-12 the year prior. There was plenty of talent.

    Roaddawg, saying Sark needs to go is premature. See how he does next year. If he doesn't beat Oregon and win 10 then I think he needs to go, but that will never happen. there are no SEC standards here at Washington. Their used to be.

    Part of me wants Sark to finish 5-8 and get canned. But what's more likely to happen? Sark will finish 8-5 and that will be enough improvement (even though he should have finished there in year three) for a contract extention. If we don't win the conference next year, Sark wont get us to a rose bowl ever. And Woody doesn't have the balls to cut ties as we have a brand new stadium, and recruiting is going well.

    Its going to be a perpetual "just wait till next year" program with Sark if he doesn't win next year. However I'm willing to give Sark the benefit. I like him a lot as a person

    June Jones took friggin Hawaii to the Sugar Bowl after 6 years, Hawaii. Oh, but Hawaii is much easier to recruit for than Washington; the weather is better. (Fleenor always uses the weather excuse.)

    Maybe Washington is in the same class as the Warriors now and we should give Cream Puff 6 years to get us back to the Holiday Bowl. By the way, who cares if Steve is a nice guy? I'd rather have a jerk that wins and the players respect.

    Sark can't go 5-8. A real football school would have fired him already. Washington wouldn't even fire him if he went 5-7 in 2013.

    Washington already is a perpetual "just wait until next year" program. That's why Sark still has his job.
