Good point, glenn.  Sarkisian\'s  self-promotion coming into Seattle reminds one of Charlie Weis when he arrived at ND.  Everywhere Weis went-- recruiting, gladhanding alums, speaking to students-- he tried to leverage his NFL offensive coordinator cred  by proclaiming that in every game ND would enjoy a "distinct schematic advantage"  over its opponents.  Words that came back to haunt him.
One poster on Dawgman soberly said that Arizona and its long patience with Stoops was the model for UW. Â Definitely a minority among the vocal. Â Gotta wonder what else former USC offensive coordinator Sarkisian could have been selling other than his ability to quickly restore Husky football. Â
The interesting thing is that at both ND and UDub, Â the enthusiasm for the new guy might have been deceptively amped up by the sheer relief of watching Tyrone exiting.
