Washington defense set, but offense needs replacement for Nussmeier

With the exciting hire of Tosh Lupoi for the Huskies, comes the story of Washington's offensive coordinator Doug Nussmeier leaving for Alabama. I don't find this as a major loss for the Dawgs seeing as Coach Sark already calls the plays, never the less it is a pretty big loss. Reports are saying that Nussmeier will make around 600,000 a year with the Tide as opposed to 365,000 with the Huskies. Early sources are saying it's possible that a replacement for Nussmeier could be Cal passing game coordinator and receivers coach Eric Kiesau. He has also coached at Colorado and Utah State, and was said to be a key factor in Cal's recruitment of stud WR Jordan Payton. Could the Huskies get yet another Cal coach to add to the already stacked coaching staff? We'll see.
