Fresh off an appearance in the College Football Playoff National Championship Game, the Washington Huskies’ roster has undergone a massive transformation this offseason under new head coach Jedd Fisch.
Fisch took the podium during this week’s Big Ten media days and shared that the Huskies own 46 new scholarship players, an entirely new coaching staff and 21 new starters (h/t Brett McMurphy of The Action Network).
“That has never been done before,” Fisch said Thursday regarding Washington’s rebuilt roster. “It’s a true reboot, but so is college football.”
While the Huskies’ overhaul is certainly significant, Fisch forgot about the even larger reboot that head coach Deion Sanders engineered at Colorado last offseason. Sanders added nearly 70 new scholarship players and also brought in an entirely different coaching staff.
To make Fisch’s comments even more strange, his Arizona Wildcats played (and beat) the new-look Buffs in the Pac-12 last November.
"Never been done before"? I guess he forgot about Colorado in 2023, which had 68 new scholarship players and an entirely new coaching staff https://t.co/s5UDvvKJCg
