— Tosh Lupoi (@CoachLupUW) December 19, 2013 Lupoi first made his name as California’s defensive line coach, where he became known for his recruiting prowess by bringing several high profile players to the Golden Bears. He left for Washington in early 2012 to serve in the same capacity.
It should be noted that this is not the first run-in Lupoi has had with the rules, having committed a “secondary” violation back in spring by publicizing the visit of a potential recruit.
