It doesn’t seem that long ago that everybody was getting revved up for Steve Sarkisian’s first season at the University of Washington. The new coach opened spring practices and Dawg fans flocked to the stadium to see how the former USC assistant handled things.
Those open practices were a huge hit. The energy that Sarkisian and his staff brought was night and day from Ty Willingham’s methods. Willingham conducted closed practices and rarely opened up in interviews with the media.
Sarkisian was a breath of fresh air and the Huskies, coming off an 0-12, season, nearly made it to a bowl game.
Now, it’s time for Sarkisian’s guys to get things rolling again. Quarterback Jake Locker’s returning for his senior season and expections are high at Montlake. Spring drills open Tuesday, and once again, they’re open to the public. You have to sign if you show up, but you’ll be able to get a first-hand look at this year’s team if you desire.
Here’s the UW link that has all of the spring info, including schedule of practices.
Here’s the roster. Once again, there’s nobody from West Sound on the squad, not even a walkon.
