    I was listening to the Fire Tom Herman podcast (since re-branded) and one of the hosts talked about the 12 step program and the impact it might/should have on Sarks life/career.  Apparently the host has worked a little bit in addiction/recovery and at least has a bit of an idea of what hes talking about on this subject.

    The gist of it was that going through and completing the 12 step program requires you to be introspective to take a look at your life and career and goals and how all of that was impacted by your addiction.  You have to strip away all ego and realize that there things you can not control.  Just a really intensive self-therapy.  A type of therapy that goes beyond just beating addiction.

    It requires a kind of self-evaluation that would do wonders for someone like Tom Herman - and likely made a huge impact on Sark as a coach.

    The hope would be that he carries over that kind of critical self-evaluation into all areas of his life - including decisions like coaching staff.  Hopefully he doesn't allow things like ego or a lack of self -confidence steer him into making lesser hires because he's worried he might be over-shadowed or challenged.

    The initial list is full of names with as much or more experience than him, at big time programs, with big time success.  If he can get just a couple of those names his initial staff will be miles ahead of what Strong/Herman walked onto the 40 acres with.

    Off topic note: the name of the show is satire. I know that is taken well here, but boy oh boy do people on twitter not enjoy the name
