So have a successful college program you don't need a head coach who is particularly good at coaching. You need the slickest, slimiest used car salesman you can find who can SELL the University and the program to the kids. The coordinators and position coaches is where you need to be strong.

@blackout07blue 3 роки тому

Sark personifies a used car salesman. The entire school at Texas does if we are being honest. Their AD and President told all those kids a week before signing day last month that Herman would be back and even had the AD calling kids to promise Herman would be back just so they’d sign with the school before they fired Herman. So yeah, Texas University personifies a used car salesman. And now they’ve got their gimmicky head coach with the nickname “4-loss Sark”.
