In what feels like a long time coming, former Hussy star Reggie Williams was arrested for Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) and possession of marijuana. Williams failed three field sobriety tests and then refused to take a blood and urine test.
Always thoug to be a "Bad Dawg," Williams has had whispers about drug abuse following him for years, since his playing days at the UW. However, it appears that this is the first time he's been arrested. Williams faces up to a year in jail.
So HuskiesSuck.com salutes you, Reggie Willliams! Your name can now be added to the proud list of former UW alumni and players who've been arrested or sanctioned.
Jim Michalczik, Coach Sarkisian's first hire of his coaching staff, has decided that he didn't like what he saw in the UW program, and has decided to leave for a vastly superior place for coaches: the Oakland Raiders.
Think about it. The guy so desperately felt he had to get out that he went to perhaps the single worst place for a football coach to go-- virtually committing career suicide in the process-- just so he wouldn't have his name associated with this pack of clowns and the boy-wonder's grand vision.
All of this points a smoking gun squarly at Sarkheisel. Let's take a look at his accomplishments since becoming UW head coach:
Won Rose Bowl (with USC)
Hired inexperienced DC who had losing history... at Idaho
Committed recruiting violation by simulating game-day experience
Committed douchy recruting practice by simulating game-day experience
Committed recruiting violation by meeting with HS junior off campus
Committed recruiting violoation by allowing media to participate in recruiting visit
Committed douchy recruiting practice by "package bidding" a lesser player in attempt to land his buddy
Signed the Pac-10's worst recruiting class
Alienated his new players, the Pac-10's worst, by calling them "average," and grading them a "C" and going on about how poor he did in recuriting them
Scared off his WR coach two weeks into the job
Scared off his OC and OL coach, after long enough to get a good look at the direction of the program.
Clearly, this program is a total, complete disaster. Coach Sarkhiesel is doing a fine, fine job of continuing the tradition of sucking.
Huskies 2009 Recruiting Class Meets Program's Standards
Wednesday was National Letter of Intent day, and the UW Huskies, fresh off their stunning 0-12 Winless season, today announced a recruiting class of equal standards.
Clocking in at 18 commits (including the Punter), the Huskies swung and missed on just about every guy they were competing on as the clock wound down. With none higher than 3 stars according to Scout.com, the website that blew the whistle on the pups recruiting violations (not to mention banning yours truly from the message boards) has the Huskies ranked last in the Pac-10.
Right at home.
Nationally, Scout has them at 66th, wedged in between SMU and Indiana.
"We were a 'C,' " Sarkisian said. "We were average. We should be better."
Nice. So not only have you alienated your fanbase by pulling in a mediocre recruiting class, you've now alienated your recruiting class by telling the media they're mediocre.
