Last week it was revealed that new Head Coach Steve Sarkisian wasted no time in continuing in the footsteps of Don James and Rick Neuheisel, and committed his first recruiting violation. The violation stipulates that teams may not "engage in any game-day simulations (e.g., running onto the field)...." So what did Sarkisian do for his recruits? "The Huskies made fog with a fog machine and played that damn siren of theirs while football recruits ran out of the tunnel," writes Jim Moore. It should come as no surprise that Sarkisian went this route. Given the choice of those before him, a Husky coach has one of only two options: historic losing (see: Willingham, Gilbertson) or cheating (see James, Neuheisel). At least the cheaters have some fun during their tenure. The whistle blower in this case was a recruit himself, reporting to one of the fat ass "reporters" at dawgman.com. These dumbasses actually posted news of the violation in a recruting story, and then scrambled to cover it up when they were tipped off by a Coug fan named 89Steep that it was a violation. Too late to continue covering it up, the university decided to fess up and take their lumps. And believe it or not, this is not the first time Sarkisian's recruiting has raised eyebrows about its legitimacy. Floating around the same message board are some stories of Sarkisian reportedly visiting high school Junior Jake Heaps in a private in-home visit. In home visits with underclassman may be a violation in itself. In any case, HuskiesSuck.com welcomes coach Sarkisian to the long and storied tradition of cheating at the U, and can't wait for the day we start hearing the phrase "Lack of Instatutional Control" echoing the hallways of Montlake once again.
