Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

My alerts got up to 1.8k before my dog clicked a button. I was trying to see how far it would go.

Despite the Strawman argument, Sark was OC at USC for one year with a crazy good roster. Yeah, that was a good team. That was also ten years ago. The other 10 examples since then have all been pretty bad, especially his current job. But hey, let’s just not face reality and pretend he’s great because he’s in the NFL and was at USC when they were a machine.

USC

2006 (Lane Kiffin OC) - 30.5 PPG
2007 (Sarkisian OC) - 32.6 PPG
2008 (Sarkisian OC) - 37.5 PPG

Washington

2008 (Ty Willingham HC) - 13.2 PPG
2009 (Sarkisian HC) - 26.1 PPG
2010 (Sarkisian HC) - 21.8 PPG
2011 (Sarkisian HC) - 33.4 PPG
2012 (Sarkisian HC) - 24.0 PPG
2013 (Sarkisian HC) - 37.9 PPG

USC (again)

2013 (Kiffin HC) - 29.7 PPG
2014 (Sarkisian HC) - 35.8 PPG

This doesn't scream "disaster everywhere he's been" to me. The guy can put up points.

 

[bignewt]

maybe he likes the college game better....

Sure more work and less pay, sounds legit.

 

[Chuckie]

As I guy I work with often says, "boys, it just doesn't get any better than this."

When you hear/read that in the appropriate context, it's pretty depressing.

Washington was 0-11 the year before he got there.

This is the most important hire Pruitt will make. If he gets it right he’ll be here for a while. If he gets it wrong, he could be Muschamp. Hope he gets it right.

If he wants Sarkisian I’ll ride with him

Whoa whoa whoa

Can’t be backing up facts with stats. Do you even VN Bro?

 

[rjd970]

As long as Pruitt gets who he wants and it's his first choice I'm ready to roll with it.

 

[Vols410]

Washington was 0-11 the year before he got there.

Yup. Washington was 12-47 in the five years before Sark, and he went 34-29 over his 5 years there.

 

[IhateGA]

Are Tennessee fans the only ones who stress this much about hiring assistant coaches?

 

[Utk_turtle]

I will root for whoever we hire, but I think Sark would be a train wreck. Freeze would be a media circus. I’ve wanted Enos all along and think he would be the real homerun hire. With so many people in the dark, might we be waiting for an NFL hire?

 

[butchna]

We stress over hiring tennis coaches.

Matthews in on 1045 if anyone cares

 

[amazingGRACE]

People living in banana land thinking Sark isn’t more than qualified for the job.

 

[Big Gucci Sosa]

Matthews in on 1045 if anyone cares

report the cliffs. thanks

 

[roosterjbh]

Is that Weinke?

 

[HankHill]

Is that Weinke?

Friend.

 

[amazingGRACE]

Is that our old pal Jancek in the corner giving the death stare?

 

[Big Gucci Sosa]

Matthews in on 1045 if anyone cares

Did he say the hire is 95% done?

 

[LIvol]

Sure more work and less pay, sounds legit.

Why does Saban prefer the college game?

 

[#JuanVol]

Did he say the hire is 95% done?

Yes

 

[wrangler]

Did he say the hire is 95% done?

So it's like waiting for that last 5% on the Windows progress bar?

 

[Big Gucci Sosa]

Matthews says a lot of the slowness is because PF is out of town. Also says he thinks they have a hire close to being done.

 

[Vols2DaWall]

Atlanta was 8th last year in offense and 10th this year. Not bad for a team with a terrible O line
