UW Coaching Search
But for the permanent job? The University of Washington Husky athletic department has already begun a national search for the next head coach. Cohen was confident that the search would result in finding someone with
"“passion for developing young men on and off the court, a high standard of excellence, and the energy passion and plan to inspire a winning culture.”"
That is a rather ambiguous and pretty stock set of qualifications for a list of prospective head coaches. Is that to say the team hasn’t any names yet? Not at all. In fact, the interviews may already be underway:

But since we are not sitting in the meeting rooms, Let’s see if I can’t list off some possible names as Washington Husky head coach prospects:
