Nick Holt in Seattle

Numerous sources have confirmed that Nick Holt is in Seattle with a two week reservation at the same hotel Steve Sarkisian is staying at.

Molly Yanity's story in the PI earlier this weekend is standing up but Holt still has not agreed to a contract according to Bob Condotta of the Seattle Times.

"We're talking,'' Sarkisian said. "It's not done. Hopefully we'll know one way or the other pretty soon.''

Stay tuned because the assistant coaching ante at Washington is about to dramatically increase. if your are OC Jim Jim Michalczik it means an immediate pay raise two weeks into the job.

This just in from Scott Wolf at Inside USC.

Nick Holt is flying to Seattle tomorrow to decide if he wants to accept the defensive coordinator's job at Washington. And it means he lied Saturday when he said he was not interested in the position.

Wolf who is a USC grad is kind if a hack but provides the best up to date info on what is going on at USC.

WOW!!!

If Sark can steal him from USC I will be greatly impressed. It must be one sweet offer to make a sideways move to an 0-12 team. I’m guessing there is an Assistant Head Coach title included in the potential deal.

Money

 They are really going to have to up the ante to get Holt from USC.

If they do that all the assistant coaches get immediate raises.

Money should be no object...

But since it is…

By my count if a more established coach was going to get 2.5m than we have an extra $700k free to throw at a good staff. If Sark can pull this off, he’ll have (on paper of course) a top two staff in the conference.

Call me stubborn, but if Sarkisian is getting the OK to ratchet up coordinator salaries, I’d still prefer he make a run at Banker. Not that I’d be unhappy with Holt, but I think Banker has been more impressive given what he has to work with.

But I suspect this is all about a comfort level that Sarkisian already has with Holt…

Banker is great/best friends with Reily...

he won’t leave OSU and has no aspirations to be a head coach. But I’m with you Kirk Banker is the best D cordinator – maybe in the country considering the level of talent he starts with.

Banker

Banker won’t be leaving OSU for anything but a head coaching job.

Most folks

by T9ODawg on Jan 5, 2009 7:02 AM PST up reply actions

YES

So it looks like Christmas came a little late this year

A question on salaries

JB, you have put Holt’s money in the $700-750k range, Bob Condotta has him at $500k. Is it all just speculation because USC is private? Are there different factors being considered for each figure? Either way, UW could probably shoot about 15% lower than USC on account of Seattle being a little less expensive than L.A.

Who exactly needs to apologize?

I didn’t see anything posted here that was too harsh about her scoop.

by John Berkowitz on Jan 5, 2009 7:01 AM PST up reply actions  

No it wasn't here but on her blog...

…there were some harsh criticisms of her. Way off base IMO.

by dawgfan22 on Jan 5, 2009 8:57 PM PST up reply actions  

Her blog

There are always idiots on her blog.

For the record I am Chicago Dawg in the PI blogs.

Speculation on salaries

It is speculation because USC is private.

Sark reportedly made $750 as the OC so you would figure that Holt made something in the neighborhood.
