Sark: “There’s no filter or photoshop for energy.” -
One quote Sark lives by is something Sean McVay told him a few years ago: “Are the habits you have today on par with the dreams you have for tomorrow?”
-
Sark: “If I try to be one of those two guys, I’m going to fail.”
-
Sark said he was 33 years old when he got the Washington job, “and I didn’t know what the hell I was doing.”
-
Sark: “You have to fail and you have to learn from your failures.”
-
Sark’s clinic talk is going to be on leadership. He starts talking about how Pete Carroll and Nick Saban are the two biggest influences on his coaching career.
-
And he’s not just talking about kids picking the Longhorns. He said there are too many good FBS programs in Texas for kids to go outside of the state.
-
Sark said it’s going to be better in the long run if Texas kids stay within the state to play college football.
-
Sark was blown away recently when he called the coach of a high-level recruit in the state of Texas who was getting ready to make a decision and the coach didn’t know anything regarding the decision.
-
Sark: “When your kids come play for us, we’re more invested in them than they if they went out of the state.”
-
Sark: "The programs in the state of Texas right now, they're at an all-time high." Sark even said Texas A&M "is in the best hands its been in a long time with Mike Elko."
-
Sark tells the coaches that now isn't the time to throw their hands in the air amid the game's changing landscape. "We can't step away," he said.
-
Sark praises the Texas high school coaches for producing 19 of the 23 draft picks the Longhorns have produced over the last two years.
-
Sark goes back to his opening press conference when he was hired, telling the high school coaches that the Texas program, "is your program."
-
Sark's work at Texas is praised by the THSCA for the Longhorns' "NFL development and top-tier performances on both sides of the ball
-
Austin Vandegrift coach Drew Sanders is introducing Sark. Coach Sanders is a great guy.
-
Just as good, if not better attendance for Sark's address than the FBS coaches panel on Sunday.
-
The CEO of Hudl is speaking right now. A good throwback moment for me to mentioning how the only way to get game film and highlights was to travel the state and get a DVD from the high school staff. I've got a few early 2010s DVDs of Longhorn recruits in a storage bin in my office. I'd dig them out, but I don't have a DVD player.

I'll add that Sark has been proactive in working with the THSCA. While there's a lot of clamoring for Sark to recruit more players from within the state, Sark hasn't been shy about pointing out it's a two-way street, and the THSCA has been receptive to him, from what I've been told.
-
Nick Saban, Kirby Smart and Lincoln Riley are some of the coaches who've given the keynote address in recent years. I like that the THSCA has moved to having an FBS coach from within the state give the keynote address.
-
I think he'd do well there. But whether he wants to make the move or not is another question.

Might've been a different outcome if Quinn had played the whole game.
