Steve Sarkisian

[ShockandAweWSU]

Has to be considered here. Lots of similarities to Leach. Proven great coach. Big Risk/Huge Reward.
Can recruit and could put together a great staff. Offensive Mind. Wouldn't be my first pick but we could do a whole lot worse. Plus he would mesh well with De Laura. Don't want to lose that kid.

Just you typing this put us in jeopardy of being put on probation.

Have you seen a picture of Sark these days. Only Ed thinks he looks good.

Not enough hookers and blow in Pullman to lure him in. Not enough coffee cups o' cash either.

Proven great coach? In his 2 HC gigs the only thing he has proven is that he is anything but great.

Proven great coach.

 

[roses04]

Don't know why but when I see the name Sark, it always reminds me of this

If I had a magic wand it would be Peterson, just to see husky heads explode all across the state.

Why not look at Art Briles, just make sure he has the proper support around him.

Sark is alcoholic booger eater who passes cash under the table - he'd be great in Olympia.

It reminds you of that but not this?

Top quarter talent at UW and never won more than 5 conference games, or 8 total games. HIRE HIM NOW.

 

[roses04]

I played golf with a guy over in the Chelan area a few years back, he was a bartender at a club in the U district. Talked about how Sark and the staff would come in, and shoot Patron shots until the early morning hours and shut the place down . And then he'd see him on the sidelines of the game the next day and wonder how he could be making clear decisions, and I guess he didn't.

Shame on you! This was my old man’s go-to drink. 8-10 scotch and waters a night. Like just about any young boy, I worshiped my old man. And I worship Cutty Sark like the most awesome uncle ....

There was probably a time where that was considered drinking responsibly

I've tried it. Don't get it. Whiskey/ scotch water is just bad tasting water. If you're going to have a drink, have a gd drink!

Now I have to go pour a scotch, dammit. Monkey Shoulder, here I come.

I sorta get it. I do like a good bourbon—on ice, purists be damned—from time to time. What’s Cutty Sark but. Bad bourbon over melted ice?

I suppose in the summer or if you live in a warm climate, a cool drink>>> warm whiskey. And you can drink 10 of them because they are mostly water.

Worked for Dennis Erickson.

Nah, their fans would laugh at us for that hire, and rightly so. Sure, he was "hired away" by USC, but 7-win Steve wasn't widely admired by the fan base and subsequent history has done a great deal to emphasize that, while better than his predecessor, he was terrible given UW's resources.

 

[FnuLnu]

Uncle Dennis 72 years young!

Younger than his two successors at WSU.

Sark made July 6th (7/6) a holiday at UW. He would make April 8th (4/8) famous at WSU.

He can collect some talent, and he can call a good game as an OC sometimes with said talent. That doesn't make him a program manager. Look what Chompers did with Sark's recruits vs his own.
