It's really starting to get disgusting in terms of who the Doogs and the local media are willing to throw under the bus to fluff up Sloppy Steve. When the shit started hitting the fan, Gilby did it and his reputation never quite recovered. Willingham's reputation will forever be unsalvageable but he did it too in talking about not enough "bullets".
Well we are now in Year 5 of the Sloppy Steve Regime and all of the "bullets" on the roster are his. So while he hasn't started throwing 18-23 year old amateur players under the bus, Doogs and the media are falling all over themselves to point the finger at anyone but Sarkisian. All of the losses on the road? It's Keith Price's fault! Oh wait, he's having a career season. Shitting pass blocking and an OL often incapable of picking up stunts and blitzes? We don't have an RS-SR on the OL! Oh wait, we returned 4 of 5 starting OL and arguably our best OL is just a RS-Soph.
Our special teams suck? It's totally bad luck and bad timing! Oh wait, Johnny Nantarded has been on the coaching staff this whole time and special teams has mostly sucked the whole time. Well, well, Sarkisian didn't hire and retain Nantarded, Sarkisian was forced to hire him!
Too many penalties that make us play behind the sticks and let other teams play ahead of them? It's the Pac-12 officials' fault, in fact they even apologized for a bad call last week! Besides, as our Dear Leader said, while he is "frustrated", he said penalties don't matter anyway! Oh wait, we are the worst in the country at penalties and other teams have Pac-12 referees calling their games too. Darn it. But still, penalties don't matter! Oh wait, Sarkisian is just 22-21 in conference so maybe they do matter and just maybe penalties only don't matter when you're actually WINNING.
Sarkisian can't win on the road? It's totally unfair that the Pac-12 makes us play teams good teams rather than just Cal and Colorado (2 wins last year but then both programs fired their coaches because they couldn't beat Sloppy Steve at home) on the road! It can't be our messiah's fault, we must petition Larry Scott to change these inequities! Oh wait, other Pac-12 teams have to play good teams on the road too? Oh...well...uh...let's...let's...let's call Larry Scott anyway to hear his voice and talk up Sloppy Steve!
Sarkisian can't even sniff 2nd place in the Pac-12 North? Well, well, Willingham was god awful and Sarkisian is so much better than him! Willingham was the most horrid coach of in all of Husky Football History so even this guy could coach the team now and we'd look better!:
