LOL.

Unfortunately this means no pressure on UCLA's AD to do anything to improve the team. But then it's not like he responds to pressure or ever attempts to do anything right anyway.

Damn...

Yeah, Sark's gone.

Top two names will be Mora and Wilcox. Don't see Mora leaving UCLA, timing is bad.

Wilcox could probably keep most of our young assistants on staff and keep recruiting from falling apart. Just get him a star OC and I'm happy.

Saban is available.

Thinking about this after joking, Nuss is still in Alabama right? Bring him back!

You guys got into the game too late. All the good HCs that were realistic for the West Coast are already out here.

Saban is available.

We want Bama Saban. He is a Don James disciple! Plus I'm sure Bama fans will run him out of town after the Iron Bowl ;)

Don't be surprised if Chris Petersen and Washington share mutual interest

That's interesting...

Thought Emoji Movie was good. Take that as you will.

That'd be a tremendous upgrade over Sark, imho.

I don't know why you'd fire the worst coach in the Pac-12 just to take the second worst. Stupid move by Haden if true.

Exactly why I expect Haden to go with Sark. Sark said he hasn't interviewed for the job, but he's talked to Haden. Guess they were just chatting about the weather then.

Tedford's available.

We could do worse, honestly. But we'll do better.

I'd be quite intrigued with that.

Sark :-(

I really like what he's done with the Dawgs.

And yet again, Mora gets kinda screwed over.

I appreciate him digging us out of the hole, but no one (including me) is really down in the dumps. If we nail the replacement (not hard, IMO) people will just move right along.

I know everyone wants to talk about Shark (Dubs should hire Wilcox). But lets take a second to appreciate Appalachian State's hot (hot hot) new logo:

Why would Petersen turn down better programs to go to Washington?

He obviously isn't looking for a bigger paycheck or job prestige or he wouldn't have turned down USC. He wants a school/area that fits his personality.

#Sark had a ton of support from ppl close to Pat Haden and getting to 8 wins Friday was big. As was #USC losing to #UCLA.

I joined for Erin Brockovich discussion
@schadjoe: Steve Sarkisian has accepted the USC head coaching position

Sark's on a strange ride, not long ago, he sounded like he was doing good work out there, and then this year, the Washington crew here hate him.

Bama-GAF: Good post on the projected team for next year, from someone who would know.
Coker will have only been at FSU for 3 years. He already is graduating? I know Ponder did it quickly but hadn't heard anything about it with Coker. Can a player use the ol graduate school trick in his 4th year of eligibility anyway? I'd be surprised if Coker could play right away.

Apparently, according to the same source, the players weren't overly upset about it.

Same intern who reported that the players thought Sark was leaving.

This plus local high schools (i.e. Bellevue) apparently not being fans of Sark makes this look better and better.

I didn't hate Sark and I wanted him to succeed here, but the same mistakes kept happening, and it was a worrying pattern that got too much for me.

Him and Sankey are almost assuredly gone to the NFL.

Pot laws obviously.

Of course! I don't know how I forgot that.

I mean, I don't get it, but I've never been a huge Petersen fan, so whatever he thinks is best. Though I do think he's an upgrade from Sarkisian.

:spurrier :spurrier :spurrier

That was the last football game that my (six months pregnant) wife and I will get to for a while, and it couldn't have been any better. Clemson called a pretty great game before falling apart the way Carolina used to do so often in this rivalry.

I love seeing Spurrier troll people, as long as it's not my team. He's so good at it. Plus that "Aw shucks" look that he does kills me every time.

Look on the bright side, Trogans-Age:

The last UW head coach to leave for another school was some guy named Darrell K. Royal, who left for some podunk school in Austin, TX.

Thoughts on Bedlam, squicken?

I haven't really been following the team very close this year. Watch the games, but I've been so annoyed with Landry and Heupel that I just sort checked out.

I'm pretty sure that Heupel is gone, but a loss wouldn't bother me. Wouldn't bother me to see OSU to make a BCS game. Be good way to finish for my boy Chelf!

Wow, I thought for sure they'd go with Franklin. I guess they decided keeping the PC tree alive was the most important thing.

Could've done that with Orgeron, though.

This decision makes no sense at all.

Anyway, the @FireHaden account has been created on Twitter (not by me).
 
Even as a visitor, that gave me goosebumps. Even after having a completely shit season and getting nearly blown-out by your hated rivals, every Gator in the stadium still chanted "It's great to be a Florida Gator!"

In all kinds of weather. Dem feels, man.

It surprised me. No boos the whole game. I thought the students had become whiny spoiled brats. I was wrong.

Sarkisian eh? Someone drive over to ttk's place and make sure he hasn't self-immolated.

edit: bah, should've refreshed.

Only fitting, @FireSark is now out of a job!

All the dirt is coming out now, apparently Sark had a thing for the sorority girls here.

After hearing some things from people I know, I'm not surprised.
