Sarkisian Commits Violation
Steve Sarkisian runs afoul of recruiting rules.
SEATTLE (AP) -- Washington has committed a minor recruiting violation and intends to report itself to the Pac-10.
School spokesman Richard Kilwien confirmed Wednesday that the school will report a secondary violation to the Pac-10 after it was determined new coach Steve Sarkisian and his staff violated an NCAA rule regarding game-day simulations while recruits are on campus.
The violation came to light after Desmond Trufant, who has verbally committed to the Huskies, described to Dawgman.com a simulated game-day entrance during his on-campus visit last weekend. An NCAA bylaw prohibits prospects from participating in any type of "game-day simulations" during a visit, but the violation is considered minor.
That rule, like most NCAA rules, sounds retarded.
The stupid part is, UW doesn't use smoke on game day, so it's not simulating anything.
Yeah, a phone call from James Sims just doesn't have much appeal to recruits.
how do you simulate losing every game in a season? Do they just play "boos" over the loudspeakers and have local volunteers throw empty bottles at the recruits in the stadium?
WTF gee I would like to see a list of what a school can and can't do. That really sounds like a dum rule if you ask me, so what about TD jesus at ND.
