The Washington Cougars football team that has been awful for several years now is set to hire USC offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian as their head coach according to a report from ESPN.
“I have interviewed with Washington,” Sarkisian said in a release. “They’ve interviewed a lot of people. I’m one of a number of candidates, which I’m honored to be. Nothing is finalized in any way, shape or form. There’s been some communication. Nothing has been put in writing.”
Sarkisian, who was a quarterback at BYU, led the Cougars to a 13-1 finish in 1996. The 34-year-old has been the offensive coordinator at USC for two seasons. He was up for the Raiders head coaching job last year before it went to fellow USC assistant Lane Kiffin, who earlier this week was named head coach at Tennessee.
The announcement of the hiring will likely take place on Monday after USC plays UCLA for the Pac-10 championship.
