Cozzetto, the Huskies’ offensive line to Idaho, circa 1982. 4 HUSKIES Gameday Presented by Henry Weinhard’s Orange Cream Washington-Idaho Ties: Obviously, there are numerous ties between the Washington and Idaho foot- ball programs. The top connection is that current Husky head man Keith Gilbertson spent a total of five seasons in Moscow, two (1982 and 1985) as offensive coordinator and three more (1986-88) as head coach. Additionally, Husky defensive coordinator Tim Hundley coached three seasons at Idaho (1977- 79), serving as defensive coordinator in the last of those three years. Husky offensive line coach Dan Cozzetto played at Idaho (1976-78) and then coached there for a total of 11 seasons (1979- 89), a stint that saw him work on staffs with (and under) Gilbertson and over and alongside Idaho head coach Tom Cable. Cable was a senior offensive lineman at Idaho when Gilbertson was offensive coordinator and then served two years under Gilbertson as a graduate assistant in 1987 and 1988. Cable was also the offensive line coach at California when Gilbertson was the Bears’ head coach. Idaho offensive coordinator Bret Ingalls graduated from Snohomish (Wash.) High School, the same school as Gilbertson and where Gilbertson’s father coached. Receivers coach Tarn Sublett is a former UW quar- terback and was a graduate assistant at Washington in 2000, coaching the Husky receivers. Idaho’s preseason roster included 21 players from the state of Washington.
