Dawgman Radio: A Washington Huskies athletics podcast

Now .500 on the season, the Washington Huskies head down I-5 to the Willamette Valley to take on Oregon State, a team that has seen their confidence rise significantly after a 45-27 shallacking of USC last weekend. The contest will be the Dawgs' first conference road game since November 23rd of 2019 when they traveled to Boulder to play Colorado and came out on the wrong end of a 20-14 decision. S...

The Dawgman.com interns -  Jack McCauley and Intern Emeritus Luke Mounger  - break down what they've seen from the Oregon State Beavers so far this season and how they match up against the Washington Huskies going into Saturday night's game at Reser Stadium in Corvallis. What to make of Oregon State? They just came off one of the biggest wins in recent program history, beating USC in Los Angeles f...

Oregon State is coming off one of the biggest wins in recent program history, a 45-27 shellacking of the USC Trojans. The victory was the first for the Beavers in the Coliseum in over 60 years. This is not the OSU program people have gotten used to over the past 20 years. Head coach  Jonathan Smith  has done a good job of installing a new culture at his alma mater, one that has the players believi...

So of course the first question asked to  Jimmy Lake  before he got back to the business of game-planning for UW's next opponent, the Oregon State Beavers, was about the Beavers. Not! It was about the Seattle Mariners! And who doesn't like a good story of perseverance over long odds and providing the city with a great feel-good story at the moment. But Lake also mentioned how the Huskies can look...

Sophomore safety Cameron Williams , freshman defensive lineman Faatui Tuitele , and Assistant Defensive Backs Coach Terrence Brown spoke to the media Wednesday ahead of Washington's travels to Corvallis to take on Oregon State Saturday night.

For the first time since he arrived at Washington, wide receiver  Taj Davis  got the chance to sit down and talk with the media. After sitting out the 2020 season due to concerns over COVID, the third-year wide receiver showed up at spring ball and wowed the media as well as the coaches with his hands and the ability to get open. However, a lackluster start to fall camp saw him meet with receivers...

Washington offensive coordinator John Donovan met with the media on Tuesday and answered a lot of burning questions from the first four weeks of the season. Why have the Huskies not been able to run the ball as well as they had hoped? Has Dylan Morris progressed like he thought he would? Does he hear any of the negativity that comes from the performances of the team thus far? All of those question...

Washington Head Coach  Jimmy Lake  spoke to the media Monday as the Huskies get ready to become Road Dawgs once again and head to Corvallis to take on a surging Oregon State team led by former Washington Offensive Coordinator  Jonathan Smith . Here's what Lake had to say about the Beavers, UW's overtime win over California this past weekend, how some of the injured or unavailable players are doing...

The guys from Dawgman.com -  Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund  - had plenty to pick through when talking about Washington's wild 31-24 overtime win over the California Golden Bears. It was a game of halves, it was a game of momentum, it was a game with some serious mood swings, including UW Head Coach  Jimmy Lake 's blood pressure going through the roof at the end of regulation. We ta...

Washington got their first win of the season last weekend when they blew out Arkansas State 52-3 at Husky Stadium. Today, they kickoff conference play with a game against Cal, a team that has had  their number of the past several seasons . From 2019's "Lightning Game" to  Marshawn Lynch  and his post-game ride on a cart to "God's Play", the Huskies and Golden Bears have had some doosies over the y...

He must have been saving the best for last. New Pac-12 Commissioner  George Kliavkoff  is in town this weekend to take in the California-Washington football game, and also to visit the Huskies as part of his 'getting to know you' tour. The visit is the 11th already for Kliavkoff, who has a history with the area. Kliavkoff spent 10 years from 1995-05 in Seattle working for Real Networks. During tha...

The interns of Dawgman.com -  Jack McCauley and Intern Emeritus Luke Mounger  - go through their weekly breakdown of how they see the game going between the Washington Huskies and that weekend's opponent. And this one is a big one. The Huskies host the California Golden Bears (1-2) on Saturday night at Husky Stadium, and both teams are smarting a bit from their non-conference schedules. Cal lost t...

We are still in information gathering mode, and each week we like to talk to someone who knows Washington's opponent inside and out. This week, the Huskies are playing their first Pac-12 game of the season, so Dawgman.com's Kim Grinolds reached out to Bear Territory's Jackson Moore to find out what makes the California Golden Bears go on both sides of the ball. They start out with the offensive si...

Here's what Washington Head Coach  Jimmy Lake  said about  Emeka Megwa 's decision to leave high school early and enroll at UW early, including a scouting report and recruiting Texas, as well as the running back room and seeing  Sean McGrew  and  Kamari Pleasant  in the backfield last weekend for the first time all season. It was part of Lake's normal Thursday media session, the last one before th...

Defensive Back Alex Cook, Nickel Bookie Radley-Hiles, and Defensive Line Coach Rip Rowan spoke to the media Wednesday ahead of Washington's first Pac-12 game of the season. They host California Saturday night at 6:30 p.m.

In last Saturday's 52-3 win over Arkansas State, Washington's offense took some positive steps, rolling up nearly 600 yards on the Red Wolves. While there were a lot of positives to take from the victory, there is still a lot of work to do. Head coach  Jimmy Lake  said as much on Monday and on Tuesday, two players,  Sean McGrew  and  Henry Bainivalu  concured. McGrew talked about the first two gam...

We are starting to familiarize ourselves with  Jimmy Lake 's lexicon. The Washington Head Coach is fond of calling himself an 'equal opportunity employer' when it comes to assigning starting positions, and win or lose, the Washington Huskies will always be 'bricklayers'. "Whether we're being highly successful and everybody thinks we're great, we need to go back to work and get our team ready to go...

The guys from Dawgman.com - Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund - break down what happened during Saturday's 52-3 demolishment of Arkansas State at the hands of the Washington Huskies. It was a breakout performance for a program sorely in need of one. But how did it happen? And why did it take two weeks for it to happen? The first segment focused solely on the offense, from the improved...

Washington Head Coach Jimmy Lake spoke to the media after Uw's 52-3 win over Arkansas State Saturday at Husky Stadium.

While many Washington fans have already chucked the 2021 season down the garbage disposal, there are still at least 10 more games to be played, and the guys from Dawgman.com -  Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund  - will be here for all of them. After two miserable performances to start the 2021 season, the Washington Huskies find themselves at an unlikely and unwanted reckoning this wee...

Jack McCauley and Luke Mounger give us the lowdown on Washington's third opponent of the 2021 season. 

We are still in information gathering mode, and each week we like to talk to someone who knows Washington's opponent inside and out. This week, the Huskies are playing the Arkansas State Red Wolves, so Dawgman.com's Kim Grinolds reached out to Jeff Reed of AStateNation, the 247Sports site that covers Arkansas State. They started out talking about the Red Wolves' program under first-year head coach...

Washington Head Coach  Jimmy Lake  spoke to the media Thursday ahead of UW's showdown with the Arkansas State Red Wolves Saturday at 1:15 pm PT. The Huskies just finished up their third practice of the week, and he spoke on a number of individual players, as well as some position groups and the continuing struggle to force turnovers.

It's not exactly Air Raid, but Arkansas State is still putting up some monster offensive numbers through two games. They are third in all of FBS in total offense (610 yards per game), and top-20 in scoring offense at 44.5 points per game. In talking with the Washington defensive players Wednesday, they're excited to see the Red Wolves come to town. It's going to be a real clash of the titans becau...
