Sark is already following in The Weasel's shoes!

SEATTLE (AP)—Washington has committed a minor recruiting violation and intends to report itself to the Pac-10.

School spokesman Richard Kilwien confirmed Wednesday that the school will report a secondary violation to the Pac-10 after it was determined new coach Steve Sarkisian and his staff violated an NCAA rule regarding game-day simulations while recruits are on campus.

The violation came to light after Desmond Trufant, who has verbally committed to the Huskies, described to Dawgman.com a simulated game-day entrance during his on-campus visit last weekend.

An NCAA bylaw prohibits prospects from participating in any type of “game-day simulations” during a visit, but the violation is considered minor.

As punishment, they should lose the right to the recruitment of Johnson.

And you can be sure that F-U Petey doesn't use that tactic... The fuskies staff came up with this original technique all on their own... Nudge-nudge!

I guess they stop the simulation after the players enter the field...because I don't think anything that happens after that would get people excited about going to UW

Sark had no idea it was a recruiting infraction. Sarcasm ends.
But Petey does it all of the time....
Poor Sark. Man he must have wanted Trufant.

I was soooooooo surprised to hear that there would be a violation from UW.

I hate to feel like a cynic but, I hate to agree that there is no way he didn't know it was against the rules. Also, they seem to be self-reporting after the kid went public with it in some article. Wow, that's really penitent. Since they aren't the USC, I bet they actually get slapped on the wrist. USC doesn't get any slaps.

I don't see this being the last violation up there, in the desperation to win, and do it quickly, I think Sark (who knows all to well how to break rules being from USC) will do some things that will get him into some trouble.
