Glad you brought up Greg Ducre. Another player who has gotten worse the longer he has stayed here. Was a part time starter in 2011 and hardly played this past season.
Trufant really hid our deficiencies I felt. Like you guys pointed out UW got no pass rush but due to Trufant, Shaq and Parker it wasn't as noticeable as you'd expect. Playing a slue of crappy QB's really helped our defense looked better than it actually was.
Beatmychest going off saying shit a lot when the boise state QB ran for a first down against us in the bowl game was an added improvement. More swearing in fan podcasts always help the product.
Our special teams has been the most disappointing thing for me in the Sark era. Offense has shown flashes of greatness and flashes of being terrible. Same with the defense.
As for special teams it has been terrible and at best average. When was the last time UW had a punt return go for a TD? Last kick off return for a TD? Last blocked punt for a TD? Had a great game punting where we nailed every punt?
I honestly can't remember any of those. Like you guys stated special teams to me is a sign if a coach pays attention to the details. Sark obviously doesn't.
