This is a two (2) part interview with the Husky AD. The first one deals specifically with both Woodward's and Sark's thought process behind the coaching changes after the Alamo Bowl, and also how UW was able to make some of its hires quickly, Check the comments section for a link to part 2 There are some pretty interesting details about how Sark and Woodward work together.
This is just a quick summary of what happened last week. Softball The women's softball team had a pre-season tournament in Tempe over the weekend, and came out with the trophy. Against Nebraska,...

This is a great interview with the new "recruit" Tosh Lupoi. No, Cal fans, he didn't get a boat!
Get this! Walterfootball.com has Desmond Trufant going 5th overall, to the Cleveland Browns, in the 2013 draft. I find this shocking, considering how UW's secondary played as a whole last year. But hey, you only need one team to like you I guess.
According to a release by Wazzu, linebacker C.J. Mizell is not going to be retained. The talented, starting sophomore was arrested for 4th degree assault and criminal trespass. Apparently, he wanted to get into a frat party, and when he was denied entry, Mizell punched the guy several times before fleeing the scene. This is a BIG statement by Mike Leach. I'd wager a whole lot of Wazzu fans are hoping the rest of the team get the message, or next year is going to be a long one.
Looks like four (4) lucky Dawgs are going to the combine this year: Jermaine Kearse Seneo Kelemete Chris Polk Alameda Ta'amu. Not bad seeing that the Dawgs had three (3) last year in Mason Foster, J...
I'm not going to lie, Mr. Leaf has no business calling anybody an idiot, except for maybe himself ... which he is. Ted Miller has a great take on Leaf's soundbite. When will this guy's sideshow end? For the record, Mike Riley is most definitely not an Idiot.
Here's an interview that was posted earlier this morning regarding none other than Max Browne. Thought you'd enjoy getting pumped about next year's class.
Lakes High Offensive Lineman, Zack Banner, chooses USC over UW, where he will play football and basketball. Mason Kelley Tweet
Here's the latest from Tony Pauline. He mentioned Polk, Ta'amu and Kelemete. "QB Russell Wilson of Wisconsin has shown he's able to make plays based on his athleticism. Wilson looked like he was going to be sacked in scrimmage for a big loss, but was able to escape the rush and defenders to make a nice completion to Chris Polk." "DT Alameda Ta'amu of Washington is still showing tremendous power and has been tough to stop. On the last play he drove Ohio State center Mike Brewster into the backfield, three yards behind the line of scrimmage." "OL Senio Kelemete of Washington was pushed inside to guard today and was effective. He's a solid athlete and his ability to block with sound fundamentals (knee bend, hand placement) is impressive." For the record, don't let Ta'amu near my children.
Tony Pauline is giving an update on the senior bowl practices, he does it every half hour or so, at least until the morning practice finished. He mentioned Chris Polk, among other things. "RB Chris Polk of Washington display terrific straigh ahead speed and power yet shows little in the way of creativity or the ability to elude defenders." Some good stuff here.
Wulff was 9-40 in his four seasons at Washington State, including a 4-8 record this season that doubled the Cougars' win total from 2010, but failed to quiet critics.
Shout out to lear, this plane is called a "Beaver." Could this foreshadow awesome events to come on Saturday??? I think so.

The press box itself in those days was populated by a "males-only" crew, and not just the working newspaper guys and photographers. There was a notable absence of even feminine ushers or other assistants, thanks to a "no-women-allowed-in-the-press-box" edict pushed by old-line sports scribes of that day. Their justification for the rule was that women might be offended by the "rough language" tossed about the confined area by the hard-bitten writing fraternity.
Defensive coordinator Tom Bradley, who was appointed Penn State interim coach in the wake of a shakeup that has claimed the jobs of Joe Paterno and other university leaders, said Thursday it will be a "game-time decision" whether McQueary will coach from the sideline or the press box against No. 19 Nebraska.
Joe Paterno has decided to retire at age of 84, at the end of his 46th season with the Nittany Lions. He won 409 games, a record for major college football, but now, the grandfatherly coach known as "Joe Pa," who had painstakingly burnished a reputation for winning "the right way," leaves the only school he's ever coached in disgrace.
First off, just let me say this, I think the D did a presentable job against Oregon, regardless of how many points Oregon did or did not choose to put up on the board. However, I agree with a lot...

"The board voted 7-1 Thursday to give university president Bob Kustra the authority to move Boise State's football program out of the Mountain West Conference and into the Big East for the 2013 season." My question: what about the Mountain West?
With all the chatter going around a certain football game to be played, against a team of "They-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named," I realized that the UW was opening its basketball season tonight against SPU. ...
The best one-liner from this piece??? "They are Voldemort’s Voldemort, an entire Population-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named."

The Pac 12 released this for its media day last week. It's not bad ... definitely enough to get somebody pumped up about the basketball season. IT's last second shot to beat AZ for the Pac 10 tourney championship is included.
I have been debating for the past several days whether or not to put a post up that mentions Nick Holt anywhere for fear of a fierce debate, with the same points used on both sides, as to whether...
"Excuses are great, and the Wildcats very well could be overrated at No. 16. But losing an exhibition team to a roster of Washington State ballers? Eesh, that probably is not going over well in the locker room. The Sean Miller press conference should be interesting."
