    DawgmanRadio: Portalpalooza, the Sequel
    Dec 20 2024
    The guys from Dawgman.com - Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund - are back heading into the last recruiting weekend before the dead period hits for the holidays, so that means another chat about the transfer portal, the players that are coming and going, and who the Huskies have targeted to get in the boat now so they can enroll in time for winter quarter, which starts in early January. They start with the positive news, which is the transfer players that have committed to play for Washington next season, including a local player in former Lynden Christian star TE Kade Eldridge, who left USC for the portal and just announced his verbal commitment to the Huskies right before the start of our broadcast. Talk then moves to the UW players that have recently moved into the portal, with specific talk about Elijah Jackson and Khmori House. Were the guys surprised by those moves, and specifically with House - how much of his portal entry was dictated by the idea of Steve Belichick leaving UW to reconnect with his Dad Bill at North Carolina. Or does it also assume his position coach, Robert Bala, is also out the door? And then there's a little side detour with regards to former juco star Thaddeus Dixon, who may end up with more eligibility if the recent Diego Pavia decision means former juco players can get those junior college years back. It's certainly not a sure thing. After a quick break the guys come back to talk about recent visitors and those the Huskies are targeting now ahead of the dead period, which starts Monday, December 23 and goes through Sunday, January 5. And could there be a straggler or two that make decisions at that time but won't be able to enroll until spring? Scott talks about that. Also don't forget the fact that now players who play in college football playoff games get five days from after their last game to enter their names in the portal too, which they couldn't last season. Will that potentially mean UW holds back a spot or two if they've targeted players from those playoff teams? Kim also spoke this week with some UW players, who gave some candid thoughts on their own experiences with the portal, getting recruited behind the scenes, and how they've dealt with the attention. Jonah Coleman, Denzel Boston, and Demond Williams certainly had thoughts about it all. After that, Kim and Chris delve into Washington's 89-73 win over cross-state rival Washington State (is a basketball game between UW and WSU an Apple Cup game? The debate rages on...). And before final thoughts from the three, Kim brought up a somewhat humorous encounter he had pre-game with notorious Cougar-backer Jim Moore. It's worth listening to the end to get the whole story.

    DawgmanRadio: It's Portalpalooza time!
    Dec 13 2024
    The guys from Dawgman.com - Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund - have been very busy since the end of the regular season for football, because that's when the mid-year signing period for high school players and the beginning of the transfer portal for current college players happens. Chris and Scott already talked at length in the previous podcast about the 29-player high school recruiting class that Washington signed back on December 4, but they haven't talked about the transfer portal yet - until today. As of today (Friday 12/13), nine current UW players on scholarship have entered their names into the transfer portal (OL Kahlee Tafai, DB Curley Reed, OL Gaard Memmelaar, RB Cameron Davis, DB Tristan Dunn, RB Sam Adams, EDGE Maurice Heims, EDGE Lance Holtzclaw, and LB Bryun Parham). And also as of today, Washington has two portal commits (Oklahoma OL Geirean Hatchett, and Kansas State OL Carver Willis). There's seven portal visitors expected on campus this weekend, as well as a visitor Scott alluded to in the podcast that has since become known via his social network accounts, and we posted that information HERE. After nearly 40 minutes of portal talk, the chat turned to the other big college football story of the week, former New England Patriots Head Coach Bill Belichick taking over as the new head coach at North Carolina. This new has obvious connections to Washington, as Bill's son Steve is the Huskies' current defensive coordinator. Is it a done deal that Steve is going to join his Dad in Chapel Hill? At the very least it seems like $1.2 million things need to happen before January 1st if Steve plans on joining his Dad. That's the number of his buyout if he left Montlake now before the end of the year. But is that the only thing holding him back? And then before offering up our final thoughts on the beginning of an eventful post-regular season for UW Football, Kim and Chris had to offer some thoughts on what's going on with men's hoops, especially with the Washington State game coming up next Wednesday. What's working well for UW, what needs improvement, and just how much are they missing Franck Kepnang?

    DawgmanRadio: The Hoops Podcast is back!
    Dec 6 2024
    The Guys from the Husky Hoops Pod on DawgmanRadio, Jack McCauley, Noah Dickerson, and Jason Crandall are back with another episode, and this time there's a ton of things to talk about ahead of Washington's first ever B1G home game versus USC. To start, they talk about the Huskies currently having the No. 1 recruiting class in the Big Ten for 2025, having signed four players - JJ Mandaquit, Courtland Muldrew, Niko Bundalo, and Mady Traore. Noah adds an anecdote about his own recruitment and how he visited Washington and immediately committed to another school! Next, the guys recap the Acrisure Invitational Championship, where Washington beat Colorado State on Thanksgiving and then Santa Clara the following day to bring the hardware home to Montlake. They talked about the things they saw that went well, what needs improvement, and overall how hopeful they are of success from this group of Hoop Dawgs moving forward. After a quick break the guys talk about Washington first-ever Big Ten road game at UCLA, where they lost by 11. What did they see from that game? And what is it going to take in order for the Huskies to break through? The guys also talk about certain key themes to the season so far that have started to forge the identity of the team, like the lack of offense, how the offense revolves around Great Osobor, free throw shooting (Noah has a revelation on this topic!), and more. UW Head Coach Danny Sprinkle has comped Noah and Great, so Noah offers his thoughts (Jason too) on Great's game and where improvement is going to come over the course of the year. The Huskies are now back in Seattle after the UCLA game and they next play USC Saturday afternoon. What about the Trojans? They react to St. Mary's holding the Trojans to 36 points and they just lost to Oregon in LA too. What are the guys expecting from Saturday's game, and more specifically how can the Huskies add to the Trojans' woes and at the same time maintain their 100 percent home winning record? Jason offers up some insight into a factor you might not think about when it comes to having a home-court advantage. And both Noah and Jason have strong connections to former UW Coaches Will Conroy and Quincy Pondexter, who are both now at USC. Are they having mixed emotions about seeing the former Dawgs on the other side of the court? Here's a hint; for guys outside the area, it didn't matter as much, but for the local guys? It's everything. Jack jumps ahead and asks Noah and Jason about the upcoming Washington State game, one where the Huskies will be hosting former UW player Nate Calmese. And how do they think Sprinkle will deal with his first game against WSU as Washington's head coach? Sprinkle was born in Pullman! To wrap up this most recent hoops pod, Jack asks Noah and Jason; what aspects need to improve in these next handful of games before Big Ten play ramps up in earnest in January?
