A players-only meeting would need to be called for and led by the most visible player. The richest player. The player that has received the most hype in, potentially, the history of college football. 

That player can't hit the broad side of a barn, much less lead a players-only meeting. 

At this point, I'm curious how many losses Arch gets. It's not in Sark's DNA to change QBs mid-season. I wonder if and when he will pull the trigger...

Absolutely zero percent chance he pulls Arch no matter what disasters occur on the field.

Could you even imagine?  There would be a media shit storm.  You'd have NFL royalty in Peyton and Eli being asked why their nephew was getting yanked for some no name who wasn't impressive at Troy.  And I guarantee you they wouldn't be putting the blame on Arch.  All eyes would eventually be turning to Sark and how he couldn't get the best out of Ewers and now how he can't get the best out of Arch.  The talking heads would start bringing up his overall W/L record.  They might even bring up his past foibles with the bottle and who knows what else.   

Then what happens if Arch transfers because you benched him?  Your top dollar, big name recruit bails on your team?  Even worse, what happens if he bails, goes to another blue blood, and actually looks legit?  The only way it would be slightly salvageable is if Caldwell balled out and we started winning every game. 

Sark is risk averse in the extreme.  He doesn't have the balls to fire guys who need to be fired.  He doesn't have the balls to bench guys who need to be benched.  And he sure as fuck don't have the balls to cross the Mannings and deal with everything that comes with that decision.

I said going into this season we were likely a 9 win team. 

I didn't expand on that at the time but it was due to seeing if sark could sustain.

Since then I think the main questions are 

1. Can he get his head out of his ass, give up play calling and offensive coordination, and focus on being a head coach ? 

2. Will texas brass give him the time ? 

Everything else going derived from these core questions 

Imo Sark needs to own it quickly and announce he's going to hire a genuine offensive coordinator and act like a head coach. 

He also needs to hit the portal hard on offensive lineman , and then succeed. 

There are multiple programs showing a good off season can recover, but he has to show he's serious about winning or we will see a new coach end of next year

I've always wondered if he was against benching Hurts in the title game, and Saban told to eat shit and change his tampon.

Sark wasn’t even on the Alabama staff during that season. He won the title at Alabama in 2020 during the COVID shortened season, so it’s more like a *championship since that season was not a normal one.

Cubelic said he saw a little of USC defensive culture in Texas defense. He noticed guys doing the fun stuff but unwilling to do the hard stuff like setting the edge against two blockers.
