I wonder what all this feels like to Sark. Given interviews, he's clearly feeling it. He outright says he is aiming to be on the level of DKR or Mack Brown, i.e. a generational coach at UT. I feel like compared to many other coaches, I've heard more about Sark's very long struggles to get here. I can't imagine what this excitement feels like for him, to see his life's work coming together at the right time, the crescendo looking like it'll line up with one of the most critical periods in school history. What does it feel like to become a legend in real time? To watch a legacy cement and know that people will talk about you even after you are dead. Especially when you're doing it on a legit second chance after you fucked it up the first time. I can't imagine the swing in validation, from the lowest point in your life, to quite literally achieving your life dream. I sincerely hope Sark becomes what he wants to become and takes us to the top with him, I want some good stuff to happen to UT football.
I am a flawed person, I have had bouts with addiction in the past, and everyone feels inadequate sometimes. I love redemption stories, and flawed heroes. I see in Sark a person who isn't perfect but is still striving for greatness. It inspires me and makes me want to be better than I am.
