Sark....Ville?

Maybe our OC version of Eddie O? 1st round didn't go so well, but if sober, maybe....?

What I don't understand, is whatever Norvell did can't be as bad as what this guy is accused of doing

Did Bert just have the guy wrong? His timeline is working out so far?*

[Dawgface]

Puke.

[Big4Dawg]

I actually don't mind it. I think I would rather have him over Grantham. Has HC experience. Has been on Saban's staff so hopefully learned some thing.

If so, Moorhead 2.0.

State CANNOT recruit to a pro style offense.

I thought ULL was going to release this first? ***

He's run the spread at Bama, right?

[Dawgbite]

I would actually like this hire. He's probably my number two behind Napier. Been successful at every level, being a recovering alcoholic does not lessen his coaching ability's.

[ShotgunDawg]

I don't like Footballscoop, but they couldn't be more right here. We have absolutely no plan or feel what the best fit for MSU. Just winging it baby!

[KOdawg1]

Looking like it's him. If we can't get Napier, this is who I want.

[DogsofAnarchy]

As long as he understands that we MUST run the spread offense at MSU.... I?m ok with him. We cannot run a Pro Set Offense from the I Formation. We will get steam rolled.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Not a terrible fallback option. Many forget but he was the HC at Washington and brought them from 0-12 to 8-4 by the time he left. Its Napier though so it doesnt matter.

He will probably be a decent recruiter and he can call plays, but I just wonder about him having to do more with less. He had plenty of WR talent at Bama. He would be out of his comfort zone for at least a year or two.

[Spiderman]

He's run the spread at Bama, right?

The spread is a formation, not a philosophy or system.

Any thing with 3 or more receivers out wide in the shotgun formation is "spread"

[ShotgunDawg]

PJ saying it's almost a done deal. Likely happening tomorrow

[Dawgface]

Well we had Bob Boyd from USC in basketball and Howland from UCLA. Might as well pull in another retread from the west coast...this time in football.

[Santiago]

This bodes well for getting QB prospects Ty Keyes and Simpson in the near future

I would rather have Blake Anderson.

[PGHBulldogBG]

Where is Clawson in all this? If Cohen doesn’t hire him it’s strike 2. Should’ve been Neal Brown round 1 and Clawson this round

[Cooterpoot]

Sark is a great coach. Just need a good staff now.

[bobcat91]

Sark sucks. Hell Moorhead is better than this

Is Feld still a possibility with him or was he just coming with Judge?

I know Cowherd is an idiot and what he says needs to be taken with a grain of salt, but watch this. Pay special attention to the 1:10 mark

[HancockCountyDog]

This has to be a smoke screen to make Napier accept.

Great coach? He was 34-29 (24-21) at Washington. Christ Peterson went 55-26 in the six years after him. That’s a great coach.

Sark is slightly above average, and runs a pro style offense.

Alabama probably didnt go under center all year. Nothing wrong with some I anyway. A lot of the plays you see out of the shotgun are just I formation plays anyway.

A QB, Hback and RB in the backfield is essentially the I just bc they are not stacked in a row doesnt mean its not gonna be the same concepts. Power, Iso, zone, counter. Its all I formation stuff. You can just add the RPO game to it bc its just about impossible to run RPOs from under center

Look at Washington's record the years prior to him getting there. The year before he took over they were WINLESS. ZERO WINS. He actually instantly started building it up for a foundation that Peterson took over

Bama boards think it is a ploy to get a raise from Saban. Can't believe he would be stupid enough to come here. Ha.

Yeah, 3 year record before Sark was 9-28. 3 year record before Peterson, 22-16. They took over much different programs at the same school

Man, they were 18-53 the 6 years prior to Sark and hadn?t went to a bowl game for those 6 years prior. That was a tough rebuild. He did really well getting them back in track and setting up Peterson, who still won 8 and 7 games his first 2 years. For reference we were 23-48 the 6 years prior to Mullen. They were 5 games worse than the end of Jackie and Croom years. They were horrid.

He probably would've done even better if he wasn't wasted the whole time too

Why would that be? Because I'm not a koolaid drinker and think hiring a guy who is successful at Bama due to talent wont be able to replicate it here? And no, I dont think he can. If this is the best we can do, then hell yes we should have bitten the bullet and conducted a real search next year instead of this half ass shit show we are seeing.

Pretty dumb statement when you look at their careers

I don’t know if I would say hate but it is his least favorite thing about coaching in college.

Yea but so has dan. Several good, winning coaches have actually. Necessary evil.

He will need to fill the staff with recruiters. What were his wash recruiting classes like?

I don’t disagree with that. And that is all he said and what I’ve stated. But the idea that he is a top recruiter like some have said are looking at the staff results not him. That’s what I said in the other thread, his staff recruited very well.

[Really Clark?]

No, What we need is Football Coaches not pretenders.

I agree with that. Especially the OL coach. Could care less if is a great recruiter. It’s a bonus for sure and he doesn’t have to be an albatross like Hev but it that’s my only choice, give me a great OL coach. DL as well but not quite as extreme. We can recruiters at a couple of other positions but need to be competent coaches as well obviously
