    DawgmanRadio: Spring Ball Day Two Goes to the Defense

    The Washington Huskies were 21st in total defense and 15th in scoring defense last season. Could they be even better in 2026? There sure seems to be a lot of reasons to think so, starting right at the top with defensive coordinator Ryan Walters. The guys from Dawgman.com - Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund - got together after day two of UW's spring football campaign, held Thursday afternoon in mixed conditions on the east field next to Husky Stadium, and hashed out all the good, bad, and ugly that they saw during the 150-minute practice. And the intermittent, spitting wind and rain didn't help things for the offense.  The good on that side of the ball came mostly from the receivers and tight ends, led by Rashid Williams, Chris Lawson, and Decker DeGraaf. It was a mixed day for quarterback Demond Williams and a less than stellar day for the centers, as Jake Flores and Parker Cross were deputized during the final team period due to the Hatchett brothers being unavailable at that time. But most of the talk was about the defense. From the big, stout defensive front to the experienced linebacking crew and a defensive backs room filled with youth and athleticism, there was a lot to talk about. It all started with a conversation about Walters, who spoke with the media after Thursday's practice. He talked about his level of comfort being at UW and in Seattle, how it has worked out tremendously for his family. And as he said, when you're comfortable, you can maximize your potential.

    DawgmanRadio: Observations from Day One of Spring Practice

    The guys from Dawgman.com - Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund - got together after Washington's first practice of spring and gave their off-the-cuff initial impressions of what they saw during the 150-minute practice Tuesday afternoon on the east field next to Husky Stadium. The first day of spring is always a kind of 'get to know you' practice, especially for the first-year guys and new transfers. It can also be that way for new coaches, like new offensive assistant coach Matt Cavanaugh. The guys went through basically every position group to give their general thoughts, as well as more specific commentary on those players that physically stood out. One thing that rang true after seeing the team on the hoof: Jedd Fisch is realizing his vision of getting bigger, especially along the lines.  It was hard not to be impressed with the overall group of true freshmen that were on hand to practice, starting with OL Kodi Greene and DL Derek Colman-Brusa. Even some of the receivers, like Jordan Clay, and the defensive backs like Jeron Jones and Elijah Durr, were hard to ignore. The guys also talked about the format of practice, how it was geared more to get the guys going with their fundamentals and position-specific drills.

    DawgmanRadio: Our Pre-Spring Mailbag!

    Due to positive feedback, the guys from Dawgman.com - Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund - decided to do another audio mailbag, and this one mostly dealt with what we expect to see during spring football. But it started with bigger picture questions, like donor fatigue in the NIL age, Pat Chun's relationships with Jedd Fisch and Danny Sprinkle, as well as Fisch's long-term prospects as Washington's head coach compared to moving on. After a quick break, the talk turned more into the players and coaches we are excited to see as Spring Football is set to begin this coming Tuesday. Who are our choices for breakout stars? Which freshmen do we think stand the best chance at making an impact in 2026?  Hopefully more questions will be answered as we work through next week and see the team in person.  Oh, and we were also asked about Washington's chances at making the College Football Playoff this coming fall.

    DawgmanRadio: Analyzing the craziness that is the transfer portal

    The guys from Dawgman.com - Chris Fetters and Scott Eklund - broke down Washington's portal business now that the end day to enter the transfer portal has come and gone (January 16). Scott did a fantastic job of breaking down how Washington approached this portal cycle, their process, positions of need identified, and how well they achieved balance in those positions in his latest recruiting blog. To start, Scott added some context to his blog thoughts and they talked about any UW players entering the portal Scott was surprised about. And there were a few. After a quick break, the guys talk about any other portal entries that may have seen the 'writing on the wall' and used that as their rationale for entering the portal. To finish out, the guys talk about the 9 portal signings that Jedd Fisch already spoke on this past week, and how well they addressed need. And could the Huskies actually sign more high school players for the 2026 recruiting class? The start date for the regular 2026 prep signing window starts on Wednesday, February 4.
