I just don’t see anything in Sarkisian’s resume that makes me think this is an upgrade.
Sark is a far better offensive coach than anyone Herman has had around the program and certainly he is himself.
The list of Sark QBs is tremendous.
Herman was a weird experience at UT coming in as this players coach type who quickly angered players and battled parents.
I honestly think TH would have been a solid coach had he found a better QB. Sam was just good enough to raise expectations and not good enough to meet them.
UT simply has to eventually live up to the recruiting classes.
Sark adding half the Bama coaching staff certainly won't hurt in development or recruiting.
After being a laughingstock for a few days UT rebounded quite well with Sark who wouldn't even entertain jobs at Oregon or Auburn.
