  1. Um, no. USC isn’t going to risk more shake up in their recruiting class by firing Sark. Who else would they hire? Orgeron? I was/am a supporter of O, but that ship has sailed. Everyone has calmed down after the Sark hire and are curious to see what he does to the program.

    • USC recruits itself. This is a real opportunity for us to select among the 8-12 freshly fired NFL coaches next week and pick the next Pete Carroll.

      • Hasn’t looking for the next Pete Carroll gotten you in your past and present situation?

      • Stop with “the next Pete Carroll”. The hiring of Pete Carroll was looked at as a failure. Face the facts, USC got lucky with Pete. They will need to get lucky again. And no NFL coach is going back to college with the success of Pete, Harbaugh and Kelly.

        • Really Dead beat Dad? Why don’t you stick to something you know about like abandoning your kids. The best thing SC can do is bring in a no-nonsense pro-trained coach like Pete or even the ruins Mora instead of a networking suck up like Sarkiffian.

      • If USC recruits itself then why don’t we have a top 10 class right now? Enough with the stupid Wolfisms.

        • We are on our 4th coach in the last 2 months and yet Chris Brown committed to USC in spite of the chaos. If we bring in a seasoned former NFL head coach watch the recruits stampede away from Westwood High to us.

    • Highly unlikely! You could only wish. You are stuck with your crappy, now a cheater, coach assembling the best cheaters money can buy!

      • I love your emotion! So you!

        Hey while you’re steaming any idea when the descendants and other clingon losers from woodies’ loins plan to shake down bel-air tech for more scratch in ucla using ‘woodie’s name?

      • Great job by lose Mora to leverage his position against the Lil gutties and really sock it to ’em!!! NOBODY wanted him !! especially Washington or they would have hired him..SUC_LA was so pathetic bidding against themselves!! Remember the ALAMO!!

        • Let’s lay out what really happened:
          1. USC miffed on a top-drawer hire, settling for Sarkiffian, a .500 level P12 coach who has never won anything.
          2. Sark vacates the Washington job, allowing Mora to leverage a 6-year extension on his contract, and more $$ to pay to his assistants.
          3. Because of the influx of cash, Mora is able to keep his ENTIRE staff, and pUSC whiffs on trying to steal Klemm.
          4. Because Kiffin was threatened by the straight-talking Pola, and fired one of the nation’s best recruiter-coaches, UCLA is able to land him.
          5. Further (oh, it gets EVEN better), now that the Washington job is open, they hire PETERSEN! (Talk about rubbing salt in the wound.)
          6. The topper to all of this is that now Sarkiffian is embroiled in a controversy over recruiting violations.

          Nice try to spin it, though… LOL.

          • Bass and Kettle drums please: SUC is favored at the “Take a Dump” bowl and smart SUC fans are taking the points. LOL.

          • wow do you fUcla trolls take the same class on how not to talk trash??? Wow….I’m just waiting for …..” Well , well ,well you’re just all stupid !!! Leave me alone !!!!”

          • I honestly have to read your posts like 3 times. Sometimes I can understand.

            What did you just say?

          • 7. A Sun Bowl bid excites the few dozen UCLA fans. They call this the victory of victories.
            8. Mora gives thanks for low expectations.

  2. It is if theirs a direct link to Sark … Haden can’t afford to have a guy knowingly allowed his asst to violate the rules… We have the biggest compliance dept in the country … if any shred of “evidence” links Sark… Haden, to save face has no option but to let him go …. Haden had nearly two months to choose a coach , and you can’t tell me he had Sark as his man for two months ….we know he didn’t …. Sark was the only guy open to keeping CEO on the staff in some form … I think Sark was to caught up in the moment at becoming the the HC at USC and missed this “Minor ” Detail … If so , give Sark the Benifit…. Haden and co. should have done a better job of “Vetted ” Sark regardless ….. I see how this is gonna go down… USC will clear Sark of any wrong doing …. UDUB is going to show Sark was aware of the violations to get out of being reprimanded by the NCAA….

    • It is time for the Haden rah rahs to accept the Emporer has no clothes. Of all the issues, one common denominator remains

          • Or was it you? What’s that? You say you can’t breathe? Huh? What? Oh – you were doing each other?

          • No just pointing out the obvious… hiring a head football coach is a big decision… and if ,and I mean IF!!! Sark knew about these payments… than Haden screwed up …. big time… You don’t be a bRuin !!! That’s what us Trojans pride ourselves on … We can deal with reality!!!! fUcla’s bRuins can’t thats what makes them Sad…. don’t go down that road ….

          • 46-30… which means you could reel off two more wins and still trail us by 14 whipping boy !!! SINCE 2000…. 0 CONFERENCE TITLES 0 NC …. WHAT 4 ALL AMERICANS AND TWO WERE KICKERS ????

          • The Disneyland LAMPS around campus are so appropriate…They go well with all those Mythical Championships.
            fit Un!

          • And then a berth to the Sun Bowl and a raise and extension for the coach. This is UCLA at the apex.

      • Aw…look you went private after I pointed out all the sucking up you do to UCLA trolls and soccer blogs. Did they discard you after they were done with you?

        But, really, why are you still here? I have yet to see an intelligent remark. Yawn.

    • Haden had Sark on his mind a lot earlier than you think. I think your point on O is a good one, but there were other reasons to hire Sark. The fact remains: Haden and Garret believe that bringing in a PC assistant will be like bringing back PC.

      If there is a direct link to Sark – which has yet to be proven – I still do not see Haden doing a thing. He will claim the obvious: how was he supposed to know? Should he have vetted every single assistant coach and their activities? USC responded with its investigation once it got the tip, so they are going to say that shows institutional control.

      I do not see Haden going back on Sark. Haden will say it is to ensure stability which is only partially true. Haden wants a legacy and his gut tells him Sark is it.

      • Haden went with Sark cause of recruiting also.. no denying Sark , like Kiffin is a great recruiter….. Sark has a ton of relationships in SoCal HS makeup…Bring in a East Coast guy didn’t make sense for a non-national name like a NFL coach brings…. But at the same time the difference this time around is Prez Nikias is very involved with the Football team … Former Prez Sample wasn’t….I Know for a fact …. A lot of big money Alums and Booster have the Ear of Nikias and doesn’t want any more issues with compliance…reason he went to Haden , and canned Garret for bring in Kiffin and his Baggage…. Garrett had assured him Kiffin was clean at all his programs…. And that the NCAA had nothing with Reggie Bush …
        Nikias will insist on letting go of Sark if he has knowledge …. as Much as Nikias cares about getting USC back on top… he’s not willing to sacrifice the University Integrity…. Keeping a coach who ” if he ” broke the rules will be a black eye regardless of recruits… Going through another year of 9 to 10 wins would be tolerated to get the right coach should they have to get rid of Sark.

  3. Since former USC Coach Ted Tollner was fired almost 30 years ago , does anybody realize that they have not hired a long lasting successful Coach other then Pete Carroll ? Is it really that difficult ? Larry Smith had a few good years until his horrible recruitng caught up with him . Simply Amazing !!!!

    • Freddy….that’s why they call it YESTERDAY U! and…that ONE LONG LASTING COACH got them is the mess they’re currently in!
      Be careful what you wish for,
      fit Un!

      • I guess it’s better than NEVER U across town. No wait, it’s the Sun Bowl this year!

  4. He truly is Sarkiffian, isn’t he? Trailing controversy behind him, just as K1 did when he left Tennessee. Gosh, this is fun to watch as the Bruins gain more and more momentum as the dominant program and pUSC continues to slide ever downward.

    • Speaking of a downward spiral, you’re the one who raises children to get plastered and walk into oncoming traffic. So, how are your children? Still on the Skid Row path?

      My toilets need to be cleaned. I’ll pay them a nickel an hour (which is about five more pennies than they are worth!).

      Lulz.

      • Payback/KARMA are a bitch….Jr. Seau kills himself, a few years ago your place kicker tragically ends his life off a cliff in Palos Verdes….Both tragic events were mourned by most Torgans and Bruins alike (except by you and Nubsie…aka Joe Blow). I’m sure your fellow Torgan bros. are proud to have you as one of their own.
        fit Un!

        • Nah, you guys didn’t mourn. Instead, you mocked us on our site and trolled. I’m trolling you back. my dear. (And I’m calling out the crappy racists you are raising).

          Next time you troll: know there are bigger, better trolls like me that will hurt your little feelings.

          Sniffles.

          • Hi HeySUCs!

            Trust me – my children are not being taught to be racist, obsessive trolls who spend their entire existence on a rival’s blog like you. Better get your children checked! Mental illness runs in families!

            But, really, my house does need to be cleaned (that princess Bucket has not been doing his job) and I’m offering to pay your children five cents an hour which is a bargain at five pennies more than they are worth!

      • you would know the words to that …your team has spent the better part of it’s history at the bottom !!!!

      • Still borrowing the fight song from the main campus? The branches in Riverside, Irvine, and LA aren’t bad safety schools. It’s what a branch campus is for.

  5. Isn’t this question for YOU to report rather than ask all of Bucket’s troll IDs to vote on?

  6. Phaden has learned the hard way and he will not tolerate any nonsense by Cheaty II. The guy is hanging on by a THREAD! Head Coach # 5…please COME ON DOWN!
    fit Un!
