Maybe but not because of Sark. How many teams wouldn't swap HCs/staffs with Texas? tOSU, UGA.... then who? Probably ND and Bama? Aggy? It's like 5 teams.
Who fucking gives a fuck. What does that have to do with any of this?
If Sark wanted to leave Texas for an NFL HC gig I'd be bummed but I'd wish him luck. He'd be leaving the program in great shape and would make it extremely easy for Texas to replace him.
If an NFL team is actually asking him if he would be interested in that then I wouldn't fault him at all for considering it. I don't know if it would be the right decision for him or not and as of now I'd still prefer he stay at Texas.
Those sentiments are all assuming he doesn't quiet-quit on the way out and fuck over Texas somehow but that doesn't seem like his MO. iirc we hired him before he called his last game at Bama and then he put together a masterpiece to win the title. So far this season I think he's fucked a lot up but he appears to be working hard to fix it and keep the season alive.
Counterpoint: I think the difference between playing in Lexington and Starkville vs. DKR makes up for a lot of that. Especially with maybe the best ST unit in the country.
Something I was thinking about last night that I think is a huge issue - MLS has no marketing/advertising on cable/network TV when other sports are going on. There is no MLB/NBA/NFL/college football cross-sport promo while you're watching one of those other sports. There are no playoffs promos. I don't even know when the playoffs start or who is playing who unless I google all of the info myself.
I just don't understand how they plan on attracting more fans or growing the league organically.
I just don't think we can play Ream 8 months from now. The idea that he wouldn't fuck something up and cost us a goal in a huge game seems extremely unlikely to me.
That said - holy shit we don't have a lot of options.
It's the fucking World Series. It's the ultimate test of who wants it more. If you can't score a run in extra innings without a ghost runner then fuck off - you don't deserve to win it all. Maybe lay some bunts down and gap some singles. A lot of the rule changes have been great for the game but it's the World Series. Leave it alone.
