Fired coaches 2013

[Redux]

USC hiring Sark so that Mora goes to Washington. Thats effing brilliant! Niceky played Trojans. The PAC 12 key party continues.

nevermind - misread a post.

The most interesting part of this hire to me is that it leaves a vacancy at Washington and in the past Mora Jr. has made it well known he wants to coach at his alum school Washington. Mora Jr. turned the tables on the UCLA vs. USC rivalry and now USC may have just pushed a coach they could not beat and was taking over LA out of UCLA if Washington makes a big run at Mora Jr.

Yeah, that's the word. I'd be shocked if it happened though. Mora is riding the crest of a great turnaround. And the Washington job would pay less (I think--wouldn't it?), be much tougher to recruit to, and just isn't as good a gig as it is to coach in Westwood. Then again, stranger things have happened.

Funny how people complain about a guy coming in knowing "XYZ School's way" then when another school hires one of their own it's a "surprise or bad higher"... I think it's smart.. The last "splash or surprise higher" was Kiffin... That hasn't work at OAK, TN, our USC... Sark has proven he is willing to come in and work & Ed O. made the position not look like a lost cause..

If Mora goes to Washington, I think it would be hilarious if UCLA went after Coach O.

Might as well put Mack Brown up there. Go ahead it's ok.

Your not the first one to bring that up I was thinking the same thing, It would be a good move on their part UCLA that is

Mack Brown will be the hottest name out there if he gets fired. Teams like Oak Lawn Retirement community will be so happy to have him.

I heard Purple Pine Golf Course was pushing hard for him.

Their wheel Chair team hasn't won for a decade. They keep forgetting to show up.

Not surprised Peterson took a pass but I was a little surprised they went with Sark. I figured Del Rio or maybe Franklin.

Rumor has it Del Rio was the first choice, but he wouldn't allow an announcement until Denver's season is over. Hayden feared the impact that would have on recruiting and thus took Del Rio out of contention for the job.

Makes sense. This is the same reason I don't think there will be a major coaching change for us this year. Have to do it early, wait to long and you really hurt yourself in the recruiting.

These current two weeks are vital.
