Dawgman Radio: A Washington Huskies athletics podcast

The Pac-12 hosted the first of four football coach 'webinars' Monday with Stanford Head Coach  David Shaw , USC Head Coach  Clay Helton , and new Washington State Head Coach  Nick Rolovich  taking part in a 30-minute discussion led by Pac-12 Networks' host Yogi Roth. The first half was Yogi asking the coaches questions, and the second was the 100-plus media members in attendance asking questions t...

The guys from Dawgman.com -  Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund  - gathered around their respective microphones (social distancing employed) to catch up on the latest Washington Football, Basketball, and recruiting news. And, despite not having spring football, there's still news being made. They first talk about Michigan forward  Cole Bajema  entering the transfer portal and what that...

If there was a guy in the recruiting business that knows the stories behind the stories, it's  Brandon Huffman . Dawgman.com's  Kim Grinolds  got the 247Sports National Recruiting Editor to open up a little bit about how he got in the recruiting game, as well as a special pact he has with fellow National Recruiting Analyst  Greg Biggins . The two also talk about the recent NFL draft, including the...

If you tried to predict how things would go for the Washington Huskies in the 2020 NFL Draft, that prediction would have gone straight into the garbage can. In many ways, things couldn't have gone much worse for UW, as only two players were drafted for the first time in four years, and no defensive players were drafted for the first time since 2014. But why? With every story, there's usually at le...

On Wednesday, the Washington Football Ohana ('family') received some fantastic news from Hawai'i, as Kamehameha OL/DL  Kuao Peihopa  verbally committed to Washington over scholarship offers from Arizona, Arizona State, California, Colorado, Fresno State, Hawai'i, Nebraska, Nevada, Oregon State, UCLA, Washington State, and Wisconsin. Peihopa is being recruited by Washington as a defensive lineman....

The guys from Dawgman.com -  Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund  - gave their thoughts on Jacob Eason's current draft status a couple of days ago, but decided there needed to be a more complete draft preview - so here it is. They talk about Eason's strengths and weaknesses and how he's being perceived by the NFL brass ahead of the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft, held Thursday in Las...

Sam Huard  wanted to set the record straight: he's not just a steak-eater nowadays. In a wide-ranging interview with Dawgman.com's Kim Grinolds, the Kennedy Catholic quarterback makes it known that he's open to whatever is put on the dinner table. But that's just the peas and carrots. When it comes to the meat of the interview, Grinolds asked Huard about his take on the ratings and rankings that c...

The guys from Dawgman.com -  Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund  - got together at the end of the week to put together a podcast recapping all the UW-related news of the week. They started with the news that  Elijah Hardy  is set to transfer to Portland State from Washington, and the Wednesday news that both  Erik Stevenson  and  Nate Pryor  have joined the Huskies starting the 2020-21...

You've all seen them out there on social media, they're like Bingo cards. In fact, one came out in the last couple of weeks when it came to Washington Men's Basketball. You get $15 as your 'salary cap' and you have to pick your best team, picking one player from each position. Players are rated by dollar amount. Sounds easy, right? Well, we've taken the concept and put it to the test with Washingt...

Dawgman.com's  Chris Fetters  would normally talk to long-time local NFL draft scout  Rob Rang  after Washington's Pro Day to really get a sense of how the UW pro-bound prospects were doing and where they could land - either as drafted players or priority free agents. But there was no Pro Day this year, which obviously added an undesired wrench into the whole pre-draft operation. Not only did it d...

Washington has the chance to bring in one of the best classes in program history in 2021, but they are facing a lot of competition for their top targets. That's nothing new for the Dawgs, but two of the top players on their board, regardless of position are local players who some think are no longer even looking at the Huskies. Dawgman was able to sit down with 247's Brandon Huffman to get his tho...

The guys from Dawgman.com - Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund - rack their memory banks in this latest DawgmanRadio to talk about the passing of a Husky legend,  Jim Lambright . Lambright, the former UW player, defensive coordinator, and head coach, died Sunday at age 77. The man affectionately known as 'Lambo', Lambright was part of a footballing golden age in Snohomish County that pr...

The guys from Dawgman.com - Chris Fetters and Head of Hoops Aaron Beach - catch up and hash out the Wednesday news that former Wichita State guard  Erik Stevenson  would transfer to Washington.

With  Quade Green ,  Nahziah Carter , ...

The guys from Dawgman.com - Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund - may all be taking their social distancing responsibilities seriously, but technology is a wonderful thing.

Today, on St. Patrick's Day of all days, the guys break down a ton of UW-related news, both on the football field, the basketball court,...

The guys from Dawgman.com - Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund - got together Friday morning for a podcast to update how the coronavirus has affected UW Athletics and what the outlook is moving forward. Grinolds has been traveling and is now back from the Pac-12 Men's Basketball Tournament, which was subsequently canceled, so we felt it was a good time to not only update everyone on the...

Seemingly dead in the water a week ago, the Washington Huskies are back on top of the wave again, ready to pull off the shocker of all shockers; win four games in four days to take the Pac-12 Tournament. Oregon did it last year, so why not UW right now? The Huskies play Arizona Wednesday at 2:30 pm on the Pac-12 Network, an ironic matchup considering UW just beat the Wildcats 69-63 Saturday night...

He's seen it first hand. Whether it was Oregon last year going on a run to win the Pac-12 Tournament, or even going as far back as 2006,  Mike Hopkins  witnessed Gerry McNamara's heroics as Syracuse became the first Big East team to win four games in the Big East Tournament to earn a ticket to the Big Dance. With McNamara, it was a running one-handed three-pointer to beat Cincinnati at the buzzer,...

Nahziah Carter , Jaden McDaniels , and Mike Hopkins spoke to the media after Washington's 78-74 loss to Washington State Friday night at Alaska Airlines Arena. The loss took the Huskies to 3-13 in Pac-12 play and 13-16 overall.

Sam Timmins  wasn't going to wait that much longer, because he doesn't have that much longer to go. In fact, the senior from Dunedin, New Zealand, is set to start his 61st, and final home game for the Washington Huskies (13-15, 3-12) Friday night against cross-state rivals Washington State (14-14, 5-10). So needless to say, he's happy that the Huskies finally broke their 9-game losing streak with...

Isaiah Stewart , Nahziah Carter , and Mike Hopkins spoke post-game after Washington's 87-52 demolishment of Cal Saturday afternoon at Alaska Airlines Arena, snapping UW's 9-game losing streak.

Sam Timmins , Nahziah Carter , and Mike Hopkins spoke to the media Thursday night after Washington blew a halftime lead, eventually losing to Stanford 72-64 in Seattle. It was the ninth-straight defeat for the Huskies, who are now 2-12 in Pac-12 Conference play.

Dawgman.com's Kim Grinolds spoke Friday morning with 247Sports' National Recruiting Editor  Brandon Huffman , who also happens to live in the greater Seattle area, to break down the new 2021 recruiting re-rankings, how the re-rankings are done, and why this particular set of re-rankings is very important. A prospect's junior season is their moving year. It's the time where they really get on the r...

Mike Hopkins  said it best; you have the answers to the test. That's the way it is when you're playing in your conference, and the Washington Huskies are now in the middle of playing against league foes the second time around. It just so happens that their current eight-game slide started in Palo Alto, shortly after the Huskies learned their point guard,  Quade Green , would be ineligible for the...

The guys from Dawgman were at the Starfire Training Facility on Friday to watch several former Huskies as they went through the paces in a "Mock Combine". They talked about what each of them saw as well as what each heard during their interviews with all six of the Dawgs on hand -- Trey Adams,  Benning Potoa'e ,  Jared Hilbers ,  Salvon Ahmed ,  Hunter Bryant  and  Chico McClatcher  -- as well as...
