Sark's time at UW was like an internship... the bottom rung

That's what the Doogs said about giving him more time at Washington too.

Should have fired his ass after he failed the internship in year 2.
 
Wow. So apparently it was not because Sark was a bad coach he could never win more than 5 Pac-12 games at UW but because of some inherent limitation at UW that could never be transcended by any coach. Sark was a woman and UW was male patriarchy with its glass ceiling.

I've yet to see any intern, outside of Sark, go from intern to head of an elite organization in one step. Praise Pat Haden.
 
Better interns than Sark

The college coaching world is tough: You take an 0-12 team, take it to three bowl games in 4 years, and your branded as "not good enough." Washington was program at rock bottom with few prospects for improvement, and Sark did an excellent job turning it around. His big problem was not offense, it was defense; his DC Nick Holt turned out to be pretty pathetic, and the jury is still out on Justin Wilcox, if you ask me. He gave Chris Peterson a much better team than Sark inherited, and look at the great job that genius Peterson - the experienced and highly thought of head coach - did last year.

So all that time he should have been recruiting OL, he was actually getting coffee for Pool Boy and making copies? It all makes sense now.
 
Remember when former Weber State coach Mike Price took WS fucking U to the Rose Bowl?... twice??? Yeah, what Sark inherited was a *lot* worse than that.

Can't expect to win at a school with Don James trophies beaming glare reflecting off the lake in your eyes all the time.
 
ok the comments section was so stupid i had to chime in there

also i wish firecoachsark.com was still up, what a great fact sheet that was. chest if you still have that offline i'll help pay to get it back up to exist in perpetuity .
 
Holy shit - That article was like a trooj copying and compiling any good doog article from the last 10 years.

It was like Baird, Kim, and Brewer got together and their 5 brain cells decided to write an article about Sark but replaced "Washington" with "USC" and "Huskies" with "Trojans".
 
Sarkisian’s time at Washington was like an internship. He took the job at the bottom rung, making photo copies and fetching coffee. Considering the situation the Huskies were in when Sarkisian arrived, he did a pretty good job too. But there was a ceiling to what he could achieve, as with any internship.
