More on the search committee

Posted at 12:42 pm by John Boyle

I had a brief conversation with UW athletic director Scott Woodward to find out more about this search advisory committee. It turns out that this committee won't be involved in recommending candidates, or commenting on candidates Woodward and university president Mark Emmert come up with, instead the 13-person committee will make suggestions on a more general level about what they're looking for in a coach.

"It’s an advisory committee to give us the qualities and the criteria they want for a head football coach," Woodward said. "They’re not selecting candidates, they’re not vetting candidate, they’re not suggesting candidates. They are just vetting the quality of candidate they want and the quality of coach that they want and the values that the coach has as related to the University of Washington."

Woodward also said the committee won't be aware of specific candidates as the process moves forward.

Woodward said that while work is going on behind the scenes to find the next football coach, fans shouldn't expect news between now and the end of the season.

"There’s a lot of work going on," he said. "I never say never on anything, but I wouldn’t look for anything until immediately after the season or a few weeks after."
