There's a lot of (purple) smoke that Washington could tab Cal's Justin Wilcox as the next head coach, though that's not the move that has Husky fans rabid. But then again, could U-Dub even get Dave Aranda? Therein lies Washington's dilemma.

EMERGENCY PODCAST: Jimmy Lake fired as Washington's head coach; what does it mean going forward? Nov 14, 2021

Show notes

It's emergency podcast time! Again. It's become a regular feature the last week ever since Washington Head Coach Jimmy Lake was suspended for his actions during an 'interaction' with UW player Ruperake Fuavai in the Huskies' loss to Oregon.

It's a week later, and things couldn't be more off the rails. Lake has been fired without cause, Bob Gregory will be Washington's head coach the rest of the season, and AD Jen Cohen will conduct a search for Lake's replacement, starting immediately.

Where did it all go wrong? Who could have seen Lake getting blown out only 13 games into his head coaching career? Well, the Dawgman guys - Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund - give their initial reactions to the news and also go into the why's and how's of the situation to give their opinions as to when they could sense the beginning of the end for Lake. Was it the hiring of offensive coordinator John Donovan? Was it when he wore the 'Run the Damn Ball' hat? Was it the loss to Montana?

And to finish the podcast, each is asked to not just pick who they would like to see take over, but the important criteria Cohen will have to consider as she goes through the vetting process.

Trent McDuffie, Jaxson Kirkland, Bob Gregory talk after 35-30 loss to Arizona State Nov 14, 2021

DawgmanRadio: A tale of two halves as new-look Dawgs play like old Huskies in loss Nov 14, 2021

Show notes

The guys from Dawgman.com - Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund - sorted through the wreckage of Washington's 35-30 loss to Arizona State Saturday night at Husky Stadium, and there was plenty to talk about.

They start with the first half, what went right for the offense under new playcaller Junior Adams, how they did not resemble themselves at all as they stormed out to a quick 14-0 lead, only to fall into old habits in the second half.

They opened things up, they tried both Dylan Morris and Sam Huard, and they had a 24-14 lead going into the fourth quarter. But in crunch time, the Huskies relied on their defense to stop ASU's run game, and that didn't happen.

What went wrong? What broke down? And why did the Huskies, who started the game like a house on fire, eventually submit like the team we've seen all season long?

To finish the podcast, the Dawgman guys talk about what is expected to be a very busy Sunday. It's when Jimmy Lake's suspension is lifted. And when that happens, will the Huskies give Lake the final two games to re-evaluate Lake's status as Washington's head coach? Or will the school decide to part ways with the embattled Lake?

DawgmanRadio: Arizona State Pre-Game Nov 13, 2021

Show notes

After a tumultuous week on Montlake, the Huskies are heading into their game against Arizona State with a 4-5 record while their head coach is currently on suspension. There's been speculation Jimmy Lake could be let go, but before that plays out, Washington will take the field to face off with the Sun Devils this afternoon.

In place of fired offensive coordinator John Donovan, wide receivers coach Junior Adams will call the offensive plays for the Huskies and defensive coordinator Bob Gregory will be on the sidelines in Lake's place.

With Adams in charge, will he have a short leash on quarterback Dylan Morris who has struggled all season long? Waiting in the wings is freshman signal-call Sam Huard and there are rumors that the two split reps during the week. Could Dawg fans get a much longer look at Huard this week?

The guys from Dawgman touch on those subjects and give their keys to Washington getting a win in today's game.

They also discuss the Huskies basketball game on Thursday and how all of this coaching turmoil will impact recruiting over the next four weeks as they get closer to the early signing period which begins on December 15th this year.

DawgmanRadio: The interns preview the Arizona State game Nov 12, 2021

Show notes

The Dawgman.com interns - Jack McCauley and Intern Emeritus Luke Mounger - post their thoughts on Washington's upcoming game with Arizona State, but they first start out with the fallout from Washington's 26-16 loss to No. 4 Oregon.

The loss was tough enough to swallow, but UW Head Coach Jimmy Lake was suspended for a week after a sideline altercation with linebacker Ruperake Fuavai after a kickoff. Lake's suspension came on the heels of Lake firing offensive coordinator John Donovan after the game.

Do the guys think Lake will get one more chance to coach, or are his days on Montlake numbered? And who would have seen this kind of a program meltdown at UW from the 2019 Rose Bowl on?

Moving to the ASU game, Jack asks what seems to be the most relevant question for Washington's defense going in: if Travis Dye went for over 200 yards against UW, and ASU's Rachaad White ran for over 200 yards in his last game, why would the Sun Devils ever pass?

And if Jayden Daniels does decide to step back and heave it, who should UW target to get past on ASU's offensive line? And who do they need to be aware of as far as the Sun Devil receivers? Jack breaks it all down for you.

Moving to the other side of the ball, Luke talks about ASU's experience on defense, as well as their depth. They are wedded to their 4-3 front, and have been incredibly successful using it. But it's their linebackers that are really their heart and soul.

But are they vulnerable? Are there places where a Washington offense led by the new play-calling of Junior Adams can take advantage? And how does UW's offensive line match up at the line of scrimmage? Luke and Jack give their thoughts on this, and you're going to want to listen all the way until the end for this!
