The only thing that makes sense to me is if he hates dealing with NIL/portal/recruiting/staff turnover & hires. But those are his most successful areas at Texas so far. 

This is what seems fishy to me. Strip out every difference between the college and pro games, and the differences between college and pro HC jobs, and what are you left with? A really mediocre W-L record against teams with comparable talent and a mediocre stint as a NFL OC on a team with some decent pieces.

I know NFL front offices can talk themselves into anything but I just do not even see why a NFL team would be interested in Sark as a HC.

yep tennessee's baseball coach is amazing...  we can't say that about sark 

Amazing in college. Let’s see how that yelling and antics work out with 30 year old men in the mlb.

He’s an offensive genius, you moran!

his players love him a ton. Could have a dan campbell culture effect. Also Fify, that is going to be the fun part

That had the heisman trophy winner on the sidelines for the most important play of the year in 2005

Sark was just a Milwee back then. 
Freshwater was the OC

A couple thoughts catching up.

 

If I was a high profile college coach and my agent wasn’t mentioning my name at nfl meetings I’d fire them. The leak about it was a single line at the end of the article notes.

 

I’m a longtime Falcons fan and when Shanahan left after the Super Bowl and we hired Sark, the decision at the time that was wildly reported is that Sark was going to try and run Shanahan’s playbook. I thought it was dumb at the time and it only lasted a season and a half before the firings happened. He took that playbook to Alabama and with their superior athletes and HC it clicked. Texas hired him off that sequence of events. I mentioned at the time here he sucked in Atlanta but didn’t care enough to harp on it. He’s basically Kyle Shanahan 2.0 now being good but not getting over the hump. I still think it’s their play calling stuborness.

 

The drama around the L’Oréal baby though is peak message board gossip and like flight trackers and coaching searches is the best time here. Oh look Brian Kelly got fired….

You didn’t need to explain your idiotic point. I thought my sarcasm made that clear. I was laying it on pretty thick.

If we can have 4th quarter v Mississippi State Sark every damn game it would be awesome. But does Sark want to be that guy? That’s the main issue. In his play calling. This entire offseason was a clusterfuck. Outside of that I want the guy to succeed. And also there aren’t coaches just hanging from trees 🌲 with amazingness that we can be assured will work out. His personal stuff aside (who doesn’t have personal shit) my primary issue is his hands off quasi-fucked up approach to this entire season AND that he continually reverts back to default Sark mode putting us in game situations we don’t have to be in bc he wants to try other shit that doesn’t work. Outside of those two things and his failure to address a glaring Oline issue in the offseason I like him fine. 

"Other than THAT, how was the play, Mrs Lincoln?"

1. This is the dumbest argument about that game. Reggie Bush was never getting the ball that play because it was short yardage. Lendale White was getting it. Jesus Christ himself lining up in the backfield wouldn't have been a decoy. White had been shoving it down our throats all second half and any other call would have been dumb. Plus Bush was way more likely to get stopped short of the LOS (also more likely to break a big run but that's not what they needed).

2. Steve Sarkisian wasn't the OC and wasn't calling plays, ding dong.

Look at Sean Payton out here putting on a play calling clinic.

The Cowboys' defense this year makes nearly ANY offense look good.

I swear to goodness that Many of you repeatedly pick on me solely cuz I have a pussy rather than picking on guys who act like pussies. Go figure. 

I think you are treated equitably here.  you have strong opinions and strong opinions always get pushback.  I like you as a poster but surely you aren’t under the delusion that other posters aren’t picked on.  if it were up to me we’d all treat each other with respect and dignity but unfortunately there are just too many pieces of shit posting here.

Is the contract structured to where behavioral issues would negate a buyout?

This whole thing sure lends a lot of credibility to all the rumors about Sark’s personal life lately. Hopefully we can fire him for cause.

That’s Gold(en), C-Man! Gold(en)!!

3) Sarkisian is a ticking time bomb. This was all coming to a head sooner or later. He missed 30 days of work after the playoff loss, including the first Junior Day, which was fucking stunning and no commented from the AD/football side. It is probably time to go. A loss today and some people pretty pissed off about how this has all been handled by Sarkisian’s end are going to pull out the long knives with friendly press.

By good for Sark you mean by cheating on him with one of his players, getting pregnant, and then attempting to cover it up?

Fwiw, I heard her affairs go even further back than Golden. I heard last year it was was a former WR in the NFL. When I pressed, my source said it was Worthy. I don't know if she is a serial cheater or what.

wut?

double wut?

and bobby burton says he had the flu, like the kind of flu you get for a convenient 30 days when you're trying to quit using something? I have no idea what the 30 day disappearing act was for but i highly, HIGHLY doubt the University is complicit in hiding that fuck up unless it benefited the program. I'm not sure how we get there unless Sark asked for a quiet 30 days off to get something straight.

but what the fuck do I know I'm just a somebody.

I propagated some of the rumor shit, but more as an explanation of Sark's obvious disconnect between capability and actual execution.

I didn't advocate it as an independent reason to criticize him or demand his firing.

Still don't.  Regret it all.

Man, I am out of loop on the gossip rag stuff lmao.

It is going to be so great when we rip Matt Rhule right out of Pedo State's hands.

People hating the Kiffin idea is wild. Hes on pace for his 7th 10 win season. Sark needs a miracle for his 3rd 10 win season this year. Kiffin has the only two 10 win seasons in FAU history and about 40% of Ole Miss'. He's done way more with less compared to Sark.

Well after watching the beatdown of SECOND year HC Elko bring a team to another level Sark and the people around him need to do some deep soul searching. He cannot be both HC and OC. Aggy OC wiped the floor with what was left of BK’s fraud ass. 

Rhule would indeed be really funny... for OU and aggy. Would be a garbage hire.

Kiffen has a far better resume as a HC than did Sark when he was hired here. I don't know if he'd get Texas over the top but there's every reason to believe he'd maintain a CFP competitive level.

Collin Klien should have gotten a Big 12 championship ring from Texas in 2023 because he playeda huge part in Texas beating K State. And he followed it up with a 0 point outing for A&M in 2024. This does not make the point you want it to.

I'd throw out Jedd Fisch as a Plan C type contingency hire if it gets to that point. He's done good work at Arizona (claening up after Sumlin) and Washington (got them to a bowl game after DeBoer gutted the program and is going to have them at 9-3 this year, and has recruited well). Demond Williams would likely come in tow, which would be huge.

I’m still super curious how Neto went from a starter at LG all Spring & Fall, to not seeing any snaps. Surly there is more to that story.

This is the gossip I really want in on.

I can vouch for futureman, he's an asshole to everyone.
