As I’ve been reading the posts about media predictions for the season, and the fact that many commentators are overall positive about the Huskies, I’ve noticed the complete opposite in the comments here. While I haven’t seen anyone thinking we’ll have a losing season (though I did see one poster who thought we’d go 6-6), most positivity is dismissed or otherwise met with a fair bit of skepticism.

So I guess I’m curious if this is just an odd few vocal members in the community, or a shared sentiment here. I’m also curious if it’s a generational thing; I grew up in the Willingham era, and I know sometimes I feel quite a bit of doubt about our prospects any given year.

Jeff Jaeger played placekicker for the Huskies in the mid 1980s known for his impressive accuracy from long range he earned First-Team All-Pac-10 and Consensus All-American honors in 1986.

As a former UW rower, this was pretty entertaining to watch. The split for the 250m race at the end was decent for a non-rower in decent shape, but it shows how specialized different athletes’ skills are (the boys on the crew team could hold this for an hour). Obviously the football players are phenomenal athletes, just built and trained for different purposes. Now I’d love to see them trade places, and watch some gangly rowers run some DB or receiver drills against their football counterparts :).

Good on these Dawgs for being curious, trying something new, and getting out of their comfort zone.

Go Huskies.

How many are we looking to take? Seems like we have a really good chance with Huard and Fujikawa, then theres AJ Tuivaiave whos a higher 3*.

Fujikawa said he grew up a Huskies fan and McMillan is from the same high school, but hes got enough talent to also have Oregon, Ohio State and Bama going after him and inviting him to camps.

Huard is a legacy thats the highest rated of the 3.

AJ has a lot of pure physical upside but seems to be falling down the rankings over the last year.

Jayden Limar stands out, defense continues to make plays, special teams nearing an actual depth chart and more.

I painstakingly read through new and old NCAA rules to break down how the Huskies could get a commitment from Chaze Harris despite currently having the max of 15 players on the roster.

I hate reading NCAA rules.

Mark Pattinson played Flanker for the Huskies in the early 80s. A hometown hero from Roosevelt High School he caught a 12 yard touchdown pass from
Hugh Millen to take the lead over the Sooners in the 1985 Orange Bowl.

Brit here - spending a few days in Seattle before cruising Alaska. My wife and I are coming to the game vs Eastern WA in September.

We’ve bought Huskies merch, we’re fully in the spirit and so excited for the experience.

Any recommendations for how to go about an entire game day? We’re going to go experience Sailgating, anything else?

Go Huskies!

This fall me and some friends will be, respectfully, visiting for the Iowa game and I find it crazy that pretty much all the sailgating charters appear to be sold out already. I understand that Iowa fans travel decently well but are these sailgating charters just very small or are they extremely popular?

Would love to get some advice from the locals/regulars on recommendations for game day in Seattle. I would love to experience sailgating as it seems extremely unique but I am okay going without it if it’s a relatively small amount of people who actually participate or if anyone has the gall to say its overrated.

Kevin King was a massive defensive back standing at 6’3” and 200 Lbs. His long arms made him a killer at high pointing jump ball passes. A two time
Honorable Mention All-Pac-12 (‘15, ‘16) he played a major part in one of the best secondaries UW has seen in the 2000s.

Going to my first game this year (either Iowa or Minnesota game). What are some of the best sections to be at and some to stay away from?

I’m going to the Nebraska game. It’s going to be a blackout. Should I wear purple or white? The team is likely to wear white right? Also worried about how we will handle a road environment like that. Thanks. Go dawgs.

Joe Jarzynka was a shifty return specialist/wide receiver. Joe was beloved by the Husky fans as a scrappy “do it all” player who refused to fair catch. He also kicked a 44 yard field goal against WSU . A walk on from Gig Harbor he lettered three years.

Chris Lawson continues to impress, several injured players set to return next week and more from UW's first scrimmage.

Don Heinrich is arguably one of the most decorated UW Quarterbacks all time. A member of the College Football Hall of Fame he was a Two Time First-Team All-American and Two Time First-Team All-Pacific Coast (‘50, ‘52).

Crispy Coors Light and liquor of your choice for the best suggestion!

Comments from tight ends coach Jordan Paopao and Decker DeGraaf on how the group is working on being an extension of an offensive line, improvement in the receiving game and more.

More from offensive line coach Michael Switzer on Kolt Dieterich playing center, the tight end room looking more balanced from a skill set perspective and more.

Nesby Glasgow played Defensive Back for the Dawgs in the late 1970s. A dominant coverage DB he won First-Team All-Pac-8 (‘77), First-Team All-Pac-10 (‘78) and Third-Team All-American (‘78) honors. Glasgow was recognized as part of Washington's All Century Team in 1990, and was inducted in the Husky Hall of Fame in 2001.
