Sprinkle would replace Mike Hopkins, who was fired by Washington earlier this month with one year remaining on his contract.
Sprinkle, 47, is on the move less than 24 hours after Utah State was eliminated from the NCAA Tournament by top-seeded Purdue.
Sprinkle leaves Utah State after just one season. He went 81-43 in four seasons at his alma mater Montana State before leaving to join the Aggies in April 2023. He has qualified for three consecutive NCAA tournaments, his final two seasons at Montana State and this year.
Hopkins went 118-106 record in his seven seasons at Washington, leading the Huskies to just one NCAA berth.
The Huskies are joining the Big Ten Conference for the 2024-25 season.
Utah State got walloped by Purdue, 106-67 on Sunday. The eighth-seeded Aggies opened with a win over No. 9 TCU on Friday in the first round of the Midwest Region.
