Hiring Nussmeier is the greatest possible validation of the Steve Sarkisian era. It means that not only did Woodward not learn anything from his mistake, but he would make it all over again if he had the chance.
if Nuss is a serious candidate Sark really did pull a fast one on Woody, if we already had someone wrapped up ahead of time (ie it's announced in the next 24 hours) then woody did his fucking job
Nussmeier should be a guy we talk to IF we get turned down by about 16 head coaches (which shouldn't happen if we don't go all cheap). Get a proven Head Coach. This is WASHINGTON. Hell, WSU doesn't even hire guys that do not have head coaching experience
First choice is a proven HC. If none available you look to highly regarded coordinators.
Nussmeier seems like a good back up plan.
So Mora and Peterson are the only proven HCs?
Mid major coaches are not proven.
Agreed, but that was the poont. Aubs said first choice is a proven hc, if none available you go coordinator. He also said if no Mora or Peterson go coordinator. So to him, only two proven hcs are Mora and Peterson.

HTH.
Nussmeier seems like a good back up plan.
There are always choices if you have something to offer....UW does.
But yes, I'd take a proven mid major coach over a never been coach.
Your choices are more limited than some of you think.
