Speaker 3 (00:35):
All right, here we go, Husky Hanks on a busy Tuesday,
right here on ninety three to three KJRFM, brought to
you in part by our friends at Frost Freud cors Light,
Choose Chill. And before we get to Greg Lewis, Mario Bailey,
and some thoughts on that absolute train wreck that we
saw Saturday afternoon in Madison, Wisconsin, look ahead to Purdue's
(00:58):
let's make somebody happy, Jackson. Let's put a smile on
somebody's face. Because our final we fly you by contest
with Delta Airlines and venue Kings dot Com. They're gonna

time ever to see you dub play UCLA in a

Speaker 1 (01:21):
Excuse me in Pasadena.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
The final winner for the year in the Delta Airlines
We Fly You By contest is Todd Lewiseel.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Congratulations, Todd. You're going to LA.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
We're gonna get your airfair courtesy a Delta game tickets
courtesy Venue Kings dot Com, and you'll get to see
the Dogs play the Bruins and the Rose Bowl next Saturday.
But now we've got that out of the way, let's
get to Saturday in Wisconsin, thirteen ten loss to the Badgers.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Guys, what in the hell happened?
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Why are we sitting here talking about a six and
three team, Greg Lewis, I'm not a seven to two team,
which we all thought we'd be talking about today.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
But we're not.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
Well, I you know, the game is almost inexplicable, Softie.
I'll say this. It was one of the worst road
trips ever. Our flight was delayed several hours. We couldn't
find a place to eat when we got there. It
was cold as I don't know what. The Huskies lost
to one of the worst offensive teams in the history
of college football, and I got sick, so for me,
(02:22):
the trip was just completely bad. No, I this team
is like jackal and Hyde. It is a different team
on the road, especially offensively, than they are at home.
On the road, seems like Demand Williams can't really get
on track. It seems like the offensive line certainly had struggled,
and even the play calling has been you know, not
(02:43):
as creative, doesn't look as good, doesn't look as certain
as it does at home. And I think just purely
on the offensive side of the football, we have not
figured out how to prepare, how to get ready, and
how to execute a really good football game. Because at
home this team looks like they can score almost every drive,
and on the road this week, if not for a
(03:03):
block punt, we would not have.
Speaker 5 (03:05):
Scored a touchdown the entire game.
Speaker 6 (03:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
Miserable, Absolutely miserable.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
I mean, Mario, it kind of feels like you gave
Wisconsin everything they got with the short fields and the
mistakes made by the football team. But you know, here
we go and the road was just continue for this
football team. I mean, you saw the same game we
saw on Saturday. How do you explain what happened in
Madison Saturday afternoon.
Speaker 6 (03:30):
Man, Well, first of all, sorry I missed the trip
with you guys.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
I'm sure you are.
Speaker 6 (03:37):
Yeah, you missed.
Speaker 5 (03:38):
You missed a great trip. Real Yeah.
Speaker 7 (03:40):
Really I must be a good luck cho on him
or something, though, because that was just totally disgusting. I
think I heard Greg on the radio say putred like
our offense, Like, I'm not sure about our offense. You
talk about it being on the road, but the three
games we lost we had ten, seven and six points.
The play calling and it's horrible. We talk about our defense.
(04:02):
I'm always talking about our defense isn't that great? But
in actuality, our defense is okay. Our defense keeps us
in some games, they don't cause enough turnovers, But offensively
we just look horrible. Demon Williams if they ever have
a spy, looked like Wisconsin had a spy on an
entire game. Once Jonah went out, the game was pretty
(04:23):
much over. Like Greg said, if it wasn't for the
block punp we don't even score a touchdown this game.
I don't understand what's going on or why the coaches
can't get these guys motivated when we get on the road.
We're not getting a fast start, but we're not finishing either.
The only time we ever finished was against Maryland and
maybe Wazoo, but those aren't competitive teams. Wisconsin, that was
(04:44):
the worst offense I've ever seen. If you're leading the
passing yards with twenty four yards and it's the punter,
they don't you lose a game?
Speaker 6 (04:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (04:52):
I mean, Greg, if you were to told somebody before
the game that Wisconsin's leading passer would be their putter,
you would have said, where do I sign?
Speaker 7 (04:59):
Right?
Speaker 3 (05:00):
This is again another opportunity for the Huskies to kind
of shake that road monkey, and they haven't been able
to do it. As a matter of fact, you look
at Demon Williams in the three games they played in
the Big Ten on the road this year, Maryland, Michigan
and Wisconsin. He's not even averaging six yards of throw.
He's got three touchdowns and five picks. So, I mean,
(05:21):
you tell me what's going on with us offense on
the road.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Is it the schedule?
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Is that nerves? What is the difference you mentioned jekyln Hyde.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
Why, Well, there's a few things that I know they're
not doing well, and I can't necessarily explain why.
Speaker 5 (05:36):
But let me point some of those things out.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
One, if you have never committed to the run game
and making sure that regardless of opponent plays and all
of that, that you can run the ball effectively and
with a commitment, it hurts you, especially on the road
in bad weather conditions in the conference like the Big Ten.
We have never made that commitment, and we talked about it,
(06:01):
all three of us, that this team is not committed
to turning around and handing the ball off to the
running back twenty five times. And in a game like this,
you know our pass game was. I mean from the
very first play, I believe Demon Williams missed Denzel Bosson
out in the flat by about four yards. I mean
the ball was underground, way out in front of him.
(06:23):
And so in games like this, you just got to
slog it out and you got to turn around and
hand the ball to your running back, and your offensive
line has got to get you three and a half
four yards. And it's a ball control and it's a
field position game. And in a field position game, you
got to be committed to the run, and your punter
has got to flip the field for you and give
you good field position. Our punting game was atrocious. I
(06:46):
mean there were twenty yard punts, thirty yard punts, and
so we never could win the field position battle to
have shorter fields in order to slog it out, and
they'll use your run game. So our non commitment to
the run, our punter being a frocious and our quarterback
just not playing well on the road, and our offensive
line seems to always have a key injury when we
(07:08):
go on the road or play in one of these
slug fests, slog it out type of games. Drew as
a party who's probably been our most consistent offensive lignement
went down early in the game, and then your running
back goes down. And no disrespect to Adam Muhammett, but
he's not as dynamic and a big play caliber type
guy that Jonah Coleman is if you continue to give
(07:28):
Jonah the ball play off to play. So we got
to have a commitment to the run game in order
to be successful on the road in bad weather conditions.
Our punters got to punt the ball forty five yards
and flip the field, and we just have to have
that commitment to running the game behind that offensive line
that can get you three and a half four yards.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
Well, we'll talk about the playing game in a second.
Special teams in a lot of ways is why you
lost the game. It's also in a lot of ways, Mario,
the only reason why you were in the game right
with the block by Anthony Ward that set up the
one yard touchdown drive. That was a one yard pass
to Denzel Boston after Jonah could not get in on
first and goal from the one yard line. But let's
go back to the run game, because I feel like
(08:08):
a broken record. Guys, Mario, we can start with you
that here we are and you've played nine games and
Jonah Coleman is eighteenth and the Big Ten and Big
Ten games only in rushing.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
He's eighth in attempts.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
UCLA's quarterback has more rushing yards in Big Ten games
than Jonah Coleman does, which is obviously not where anybody
thought or hoped U Dubb's running game would be. You know,
we thought Jonah Coleman when the year began on lestided, Mario,
was it all American, not just Big Ten, but all
American type running back for you, Dub.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
And that's not happening. So is it lack of carries?
Speaker 3 (08:41):
This Greg's been pointing out, is it the offensive line
just being way too dinged up over the course of
the year.
Speaker 6 (08:47):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (08:47):
Is it scheme?
Speaker 5 (08:48):
Is it him?
Speaker 1 (08:49):
The hell's going on with this running game?
Speaker 6 (08:51):
Mario?
Speaker 7 (08:52):
I think it's the collective. And if you look at
the last six games been big Big ten games. She
started out with three fifty he now has maybe six fifties,
so he has three hundred yards in the last six games.
He's averaging fifty yards a game. I know he didn't
play that much this pass game, but we're not getting
in the carries. The line is hurt.
Speaker 6 (09:12):
And we don't have a great scheme.
Speaker 7 (09:13):
And I said it after those three games that they're
gonna key on him because he was the guy that
had the engine rolling. But now and last year, same thing.
In the Big ten, he's not averaging maybe fifty yards
a game.
Speaker 6 (09:28):
I don't know what coach needs to do.
Speaker 7 (09:30):
We talked about it earlier in the season that coach
I used to say he likes the sexy thing and
he likes to.
Speaker 6 (09:35):
Throw the ball.
Speaker 7 (09:36):
We're not being intentional about running the ball, and we're
not giving him twenty carries a game. He's only had
twenty carries maybe once or twice. I don't know what
to do because it's a collective effort.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
Yeah, I mean, greg as Mario said, we got a
guy here in Jonah Coleman, who's I mean, it's just
it's it's painful to hear you say it, but it's true.
He's not even averaging fifty yards a game and six
big Big ten games three points seve ven yards per carry.
I mean, I don't know. Do you think there's any
part of him that regrets coming back. I mean, this
is not what he came back for. He's getting paid
a bunch of money, I know that, but this has
(10:09):
been again. I'm not saying it's his fault, per se,
but nothing's short of a disaster for him in his
last year.
Speaker 4 (10:16):
Well, I doubt if he has regrets for coming back
because Jonah Coleman is a husky and when I talked
to him, when I've had conversations with him, he loves
being at the University of Washington. He loves his teammates,
he loves Jed Fish, and that's the main reason why
he came back. Coach Spiez is somebody that he left
the University of Arizona for and came here and you know,
(10:36):
it certainly hasn't gone as he's hope, but he is
on the flip side of that, one of the leaning
touchdown scores in the country.
Speaker 5 (10:44):
He's had a lot of success.
Speaker 4 (10:45):
People know what Jonah Coman can do, and he's not doing.
Speaker 5 (10:49):
It for free.
Speaker 4 (10:50):
You know, those of us who played in our era,
we did it for free, and whether we were getting
fifty yards or two hundred and fifty yards, there was nothing,
you know, compensation that was coming. So Jonah Coleman will
still have an opportunity to play at the next level.
It will come down to his abilities, his talent and
all of that, because he will get a shot in
the NFL. But he's played, he made a decision come
(11:13):
back play this year, hadn't done as he's wanted to.
But I can tell you he's a team guy. He
loves his teammates, he loves his coach, and he ain't
doing it for nothing. So yeah, I'm sure Jonah Coleman's
all right.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
Yeah, I don't have any desire or any debate about
all that, Greg, And I guess I just meant, you know,
just more of the frustration from him, and you know,
you mentioned the touchdowns, which are great, right, but Mario,
he had nine of them in the first three games
of the year against let's face it, nobody, and then
when the big ten starts, he's got, you know, four
touchdowns in the last six games, and again not even
(11:44):
averaging fifty yards of carry. And I think you're exactly right.
I think it is the collective. And and now that
Landon hatchets banged up, and now that as a party's
banged up, you know, we may see pockey fee.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Now switch over to right tackle.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
How do you make sure, guys, Mario, that this thing
doesn't spiral? How do you make sure that you don't
get beat twice by Wisconsin? And take this into the
Purdue game on Saturday.
Speaker 7 (12:07):
I think we go into this Purdue game as we
win in those first three games, and we go back
to Jonah and we go back to running the ball.
If you look at the last game, we I think
Demand threw it thirty two times, but only for one
hundred and fifty yards. We need Jonah. We need to
go back to that recipe that we had those first
three games. And I'm hoping Coach Fish, Purdue is not
(12:27):
a great team offensively, defensively, special teams that we go
back to those first three games and we pound the
ball and give it to him twenty times. So maybe
this is the ingredient that we needed to get him
back on track. I don't know how he finishes, because
we play Oregon in Ucla, but at least salvage the
season a little bit for this man and for our
team and go back to running the ball.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
Yeah, and Greg, we'll see if Jonahs even healthy, right,
I mean, you know, Jed didn't really commit to him
playing this weekend against Purdue, so we'll see.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
It's a knee problem.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
You remember at halftime of the Wisconsin Jed said that
he thought he'd be good to go, and he wasn't.
I mean, you've been in that situation before. They put
a brace on him and he just couldn't do it.
Speaker 5 (13:08):
Yeah, he certainly has.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
You know, for Jonah Coleman to come out, there has
to be something that is at least somewhat serious, because
you know, he's not a you know, a guy who
would stand on the sideline if he knew he could
play at all. So I would have some concern there.
But you know, Mario, all what you said sounds good,
but coach Fish is who he is. He is not
going to change and all of a sudden becomes someone different.
Speaker 5 (13:33):
So uh and and this team they played great at home.
Speaker 4 (13:37):
When they get in Husky Stadium and they get against
teams you know that don't have great all American type
of guys on their defense, they do what they do
and they look almost unstoppable. I don't expect anything to
be different this Saturday against Purdue. You know what the
real test will be is when they go down to UCLA.
Speaker 5 (13:55):
And I don't want to.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
Skip ahead a bunch, but when they go to another
road game against a team who they should beat and
see what they do there, because that's where this team
really looks like they struggle. And so for me, this
per new game, we'll probably see an offense that looks
similar to how it has been.
Speaker 5 (14:13):
We're gonna see.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
Roebuck, We're gonna see Vines Bright, We're gonna see Denzel
Boston catching passes.
Speaker 5 (14:18):
Our running backs will make plays, whether.
Speaker 4 (14:20):
It's Adam Mohammad or Jonah, but they're gonna get the
ball somewhere between fifteen and eighteen times unless we get
up thirty five points going into the fourth quarter, then
we might run the clock out, getting those guys extra carrieres.
But in the meat of the game, this is just
the type of coach.
Speaker 5 (14:36):
That Fish is. He loves to mix things up.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
You know, be somewhat, you know, multiple, But we do
throw the ball in first down sometimes, so I don't
expect it to look a lot different than it has
than it did against the Illinois or something like that.
Speaker 6 (14:52):
Well, what did you think it looked like last week?
Speaker 7 (14:54):
Because we threw the ball thirty two times, we only
had one hundred and thirty four yards.
Speaker 6 (14:58):
I don't see this happening down threat.
Speaker 7 (15:00):
And I started season saying Demond was accurate, but I
don't think he's accurate down the field.
Speaker 6 (15:06):
I think we always throw short.
Speaker 7 (15:08):
I think he's kind of accurate when he's out of
the pocket, when he's when they're putting him out of.
Speaker 6 (15:12):
The pocket to throw the ball. But we don't have
a deep threat.
Speaker 7 (15:16):
So I understand coach Fish wants to throw the ball,
but we don't have real playmakers like that.
Speaker 4 (15:22):
Yeah, I think I would say not just short, but
they throw the ball well in the intermediate part of
the field, so you know that ten to fifteen yards
I wouldn't disagree with you that he may not be
as accurate down the field. I haven't, you know, run
the data to see, you know, necessarily what that looks like.
But yeah, there haven't been a lot of sixty and
(15:42):
seventy yard touchdowns. There's been a few over the top.
I'm not saying that they shouldn't real I'm just saying
the reality is, we've seen what we're to the last
three games of the year. This's went by fast, but
what we've seen, to me isn't going to change. And
I think that's who what feels comfortable calling that intermediate
passing game.
Speaker 5 (16:03):
And they're going to stick with that.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
They'll run the ball, you know, as much as they
need to in his mind. But what it doesn't do
is bote well when you.
Speaker 5 (16:12):
Go on the road.
Speaker 4 (16:13):
It is tougher on the road, especially in the Big Ten,
in these physical games and in these bad weather games.
You gotta have a running back that's ready to tote them.
I mean, when's the last time. I don't think it's
ever happened since Fish has been here that the running
back has gotten twenty five plus carries and the guys
saw me who averaged one hundred yards a game. Believe me,
they are games where they got twenty five to thirty
(16:35):
yards a carry, because that's just how the numbers work out.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
Yeah, Jonah had twenty three against USC a year ago
in the twenty six to twenty one win over the Trojans,
and he had twenty four earlier this year against CSU.
He has not had a nineteen gary carry game since.
As a matter of fact, Jonah Coleman has gone nine
straight Big Ten games now without one hundred yard day,
(16:58):
at nine in a row, going back to USC a
year ago in November. But you know, just Mario Seton
Gregg said, they're kind of insinuating a little bit right
that Jed's being a little stubborn with the play calling
him in third and twelve. Mid third, you're up ten
to three, and instead of just playing for the punt
and just giving the ball back to a putrid Wisconsin
offense with the lead, he decides to drop back and
(17:20):
Demon Williams fumbles the football. So people on that play
thought that maybe he should have been even more conservative.
What did you think that on that decision? And how
much of that do you put on the quarterback for
dropping the rock? And how much do you put on
the coach for the play call there?
Speaker 7 (17:35):
I thought it was a horrible decision, but I said
it all last season. I think coach Fish likes the
sas he likes to throw the ball, and I think
right now you're going on recruits and he's trying to
get demand the ball to keep him for next year.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
Yeah, well, let's do this. We'll get a break.
Speaker 3 (17:52):
We'll come back and talk about Jet's future, which he
addressed rather sternly, I think at the press conference this
week just yesterday.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
Want to get your thoughts on that. Coming up next,
we continue Husky Hanks.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
Huskies lose to Wisconsin, Now get Purdue on Saturday, twelve
o'clock pre game four o'clock kickoff. Coming up right here
on ninety three three KJRFM.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Out back to the Coors Life Husky Hanks on Tuesdays.
Greg Lewis, Mario Bailey and Dave Suffie Muller on your
home for the Husky Sports Radio ninety three point three
kjr FM.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
All right, Husky Hawks are back right here on a
Tuesday afternoon. Big thanks to you a local thirty two
the Plumbers, pipe Fitters and HVAC Refrigeration Union serving Seattle
for over one hundred and thirty five years. K two
vision RL, no readers, no glasses, no contexts plus never
develop a cataract. And our friends at Bow and scoff
a scar forward in can't puget sounds Ford experts for
(18:45):
over sixty five years. So, guys, as you know, there's
a lot of chatter, a lot of open jobs around
college football. Craig, we talked last week about, hey, do
you want to think about giving Jennet extension? And then boom,
the whole thing falls apart against Wisconsin. So I assume
that we can just forget those conversations for now. But
Jedfish did address his name being attached to all these
(19:09):
job openings and also people that believe he doesn't want
to be here because his family lives in Tucson. Take
and listen to this clip and then we'll react to it.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
On the other end, what.
Speaker 8 (19:19):
Would your message be to fans who see certain jobs
open and see your name attached to him and showing
up on lists, and you know, see the young talent
you guys have and want to be really excited about
the future, but are are concerned about what it would mean,
if you know if things went that way.
Speaker 9 (19:37):
Yeah, I would say those lists are made by people
that have no idea what's going on. Honestly, they don't
know what's happening in our program. They have no idea
how excited I am about the youth in our program.
They have no idea how excited I am about the
fact that we're playing six or seven true freshmen. No
idea how excited I am about the fact that we're
(19:57):
that demon Williams I believe has a chance over the
next year or two years after this, to be one
of the all time best quarterbacks.
Speaker 5 (20:04):
That have come through this area.
Speaker 9 (20:07):
I don't think that they would know how I enjoy
coaching here, that we've spent a ton of money into
building this program the way we want to build it,
that I had a great hand in all the facilities.
I was a big part of making the decisions on
how we wanted to recreate this space, to give our
players an unbelievable opportunity to have a recovery room that
(20:28):
they never had, working on making sure that they have
the best nutrition they could possibly have, give them great
new meeting rooms, new office spaces for our coaches. I
think Unfortunately, what happens is they just want to tie
coaches to lists, and then we have to sit there
and defend it, rather than just be able to just
tell our fans, like our players, our coaching staff, myself,
my family, we love coaching at the University of Washington.
(20:50):
And the ridiculousness of people that want to claim that
because my wife and daughters are living in Arizona, because
I have a sixteen year old who's been in five
different school was in the last eight years to finish
your high school, has anything to do with my decision
or the ridiculousness of just putting my name on a
list just to do it. Only that does effect recruiting.
(21:11):
It affects our team, it affects our staff, and my
hope is that our players, our coaches, our families understand
how much we love it at Washington.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
All right, well, guys, there you go, and Mario will
start with you. Jed trying to diffuse any idea that
he doesn't want to be here with that clip right
there that was from yesterday's press conference, are you buying
what he's selling their pal?
Speaker 7 (21:35):
I thought coach sounded great. I thought it was a
great answer, But no, I'm not buying it. And you know,
where there's smoke, there's fire. And we've all thought since
Coach Fish got here that he had one foot in
and one foot out the door. I'm sure everybody watched
is still watching the floorida job. And we've all heard
the rumors about his family not wanting to be here.
(21:57):
You have to say what you have to say. But
we've heard coaches say that and then be gone the
next day. I understand it completely. It's about business. It's
about doing what you want to do. I really loved
his answers and all the things that he's brought to
this program. But the bottom line is this where coach
this wants to be. Is this where he can see
himself being for ten years? I don't believe that's the case.
(22:19):
I still wish him good luck no matter what, and
hope that he stays, but I'm not sure.
Speaker 4 (22:25):
Yeah, Greg, well, he has to say what he said.
You know, you can't come out and say, yeah, I'm
interested in other jobs and I'm looking at it and
I'm listening. He has to announce that he is committed
to the University of Washington because the kids are watching
and they're listening. And if he does end up at Washington,
no one offers him a job or offers him the
(22:48):
right job or the right amount of money.
Speaker 5 (22:49):
And he comes back. You know, he can't have folks.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
Thinking that he might leave and that impact recruiting and
that sort of stuff. But having said all that, I
think he means what he's saying. Think right now, that's
where he's at, and that's where his mindset is. I
think that there's always a job and an amount of
money that could change your mind. And that's when you
know you need to ask him. When the end of
(23:14):
the season comes and a team like a Florida comes
and says we want to offer you, you know, ten
fifteen million a year, will you come, That's when the
rebel will meet the row. But I think what he
said he means right now, he's invested a lot in
this program, not just as he said x's and o's,
but the facilities and who we recruit and how we recruit,
(23:34):
and what the program looks like.
Speaker 5 (23:36):
He's invested in that.
Speaker 4 (23:38):
I think his family will understand whether this is the
best place for him as his coaching career progresses, or
somewhere else's they'll adapt. That's the life that you sign
up for when you're married to a football coach. So
I don't think the family impact will have as much
on it as some people think. So I think he
means what he says right now. We'll see if that
rings true when the right job for the right amount
(24:01):
of money is offered.
Speaker 6 (24:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
I mean, guys, look, we've seen coaches that while they're here,
they're not invested, right. I think we saw that with
the guy that came over from Notre Dame obviously whose
name will not be mentioned on this radio show, but
at Ryan's with Tyrone Willingham.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
We've seen coaches that are not invested while they're here.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
I don't have any doubt that Jed Fish is one
hundred percent invested and working his ass off today to
make Washington better. I'm just with Mario that I just
really questioned his desire to be here long term, and
I think that's absolutely more than fair. You know, again,
going back to the game though, with with Wisconsin, for
(24:42):
him to leave and take another job, I mean, guys,
he's got to be desirable to another program, right, And
you would think if he's gonna leave, he's gonna leave
for either a A job like UCLA for family reasons, right,
or a more desirable, higher profile gig like a Penn
State of Florida potentially.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
I don't know if he's that desirable right now.
Speaker 3 (25:03):
I mean, if you're looking for a coach and you're
out there like UCLA, Penn State, Mario, Florida, are you
looking at Jeed Fish as a guy that's high on
your list.
Speaker 6 (25:13):
I'm not.
Speaker 7 (25:14):
And that's why I said when we had the show
last week or two weeks ago, that I wasn't trying
to give him extension. I don't know what his record
is at Washington, but it's almost five hundred.
Speaker 6 (25:24):
I haven't seen any great victories.
Speaker 7 (25:26):
I think we talked about the Illinois game being his
greatest victory as a Washington head coach. So I don't
see that, and I don't see somebody offering him big money.
But I also don't see coaches somebody that Washington is
his dream job either.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
Yeah, he's twelve and ten, twelve and ten overall.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
I mean, again, it is not kind of part of
this equation, Greg that you kind of might be stuck
in a no man's land where he may not want
to be here long term. But how does he suppose
how does he leave unless somebody gives him the job
he's looking for.
Speaker 4 (25:55):
Well, I'll say this, as long as he's committed and
doing what he needs to do to make our program
as successful as it can be, and he's all in
and he's committed, then I'm not worried about, you know,
that other stuff. I'm more concerned about him figuring out
how to get this team to play better on the road,
because they're a great football team at home, and on
the road they seem to have struggles. So I'm more
(26:17):
concerned with him figuring that out. I don't you know,
we're saying he doesn't want to be here long term,
but where what has he said that's made everyone say
that we're reading the tea leaves, And I'm telling you,
I don't believe in soothsaying.
Speaker 5 (26:30):
I don't believe in fortune telling.
Speaker 4 (26:31):
I don't believe in none of that reading the tea
leaves or the card stuff. Unless he doesn't look like
he's as committed or has said something that makes it
makes me know that his family doesn't want him here
and he doesn't want to be here, then I'm not
buying into all that kind of stuff. That's just not
how I operate. I don't read Tea leaves.
Speaker 9 (26:49):
Bro.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
Yeah, well I get that.
Speaker 6 (26:51):
I get that.
Speaker 3 (26:51):
I mean, look, and Greg, you might be right, you
might be one hundred percent right that Jetfish ends up
being and I could.
Speaker 4 (26:57):
Be wrong, but I'm just not going to try to
speculate less he says something does something.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
Well, I think there's I mean, to me, there's two things.
And again, this is all just this is just been.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
We're fans, right, Mario, we all talk, we all speculate
about all this stuff. And I think number one, his
resume and just the fact that he's moved around as
much as he has is clearly a little bit of
a white flag. And then number two, the fact that
up until yesterday, that was the farthest he's gone when
it comes to him talking about Washington. And I still
don't even think it was far enough. I mean, you know,
(27:27):
I hate to give Dan Lanning credit for anything, but
Dan Lanning a couple of weeks ago was pretty freakin
adamant when he came out and said there is zero
chance I'm leaving Oregon.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
Zero And I would have loved to have heard something
like that.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
Mario from Jetfish months ago and we're still waiting for it.
Speaker 7 (27:44):
Yeah, and I don't think we're gonna hear. And Greg,
you are absolutely right. I don't know about all your
tea leaves or whatever, but you can't say coach hasn't
been given it his all and he's doing everything possible
and we haven't heard him say anything different. But he
did not give us again he like Landing did in Oregon,
and we're never gonna get that because I just honestly believe,
(28:06):
and it's my gut. And nothing against coach Fish if
you want what you want, I have no nothing against
Coach de boor as well for leaving, like if you
want to read leave, but I just feel like he
doesn't give us a sense that this is his dream
job and he'll be here for the next five to
ten years.
Speaker 6 (28:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (28:21):
Hey, hey, guys, I bet you if Dan Lanning got
offered by Georgia for fifteen million dollars a year, he'd go,
I bet you.
Speaker 6 (28:28):
Yeah, I mean, Georgia would be the only place.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Yeah, but Greg, you're probably right.
Speaker 3 (28:33):
But the difference is there's nobody in Eugene talking about
Dan Lanning taking off because of the way he's handled
it and Mario is exactly correct. These guys are full
of it. They lie all the time, right, So how
about you do this? How about just lie to us, man,
just light to us.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
And make us feel like there's a chance I think
it might.
Speaker 3 (28:48):
Be here long term. We're gonna break, come back and
wrap it up. A few more thoughts on the Wisconsin disaster.

Speaker 5 (29:52):
Remind me? I, you know, I can't.
Speaker 4 (29:54):
We didn't even pick one. I think we were so
disgusted we didn't pick up. But I would nominate the
linebacker is a fifty seven that blocked the punt, blocked
the field goal? Yeah, Anthony Ward, Anthony Ward. I would
nominate Anthony Ward. He made a couple tackles and he
gave us our only seven points. So I'm nominating Anthony Ward.
Speaker 6 (30:14):
All right.
Speaker 3 (30:14):
Well, by the way, we did do the Player of
the Game. You just don't remember it on the show
on Saturday because you were just got tired, all right.
Speaker 6 (30:21):
So yeah, we we.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
Just we just we actually did it on the show
on Saturday.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
Guys.
Speaker 3 (30:29):
I'm just going back to the Wisconsin game, and the
frustrating thing, Mario is just how much they just completely gave.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
The game away. I mean, you mentioned the first segment.
Speaker 3 (30:37):
If your opponent's leading passer is the punter, not a
game that you should lose. Come on, first scoring drive
for Wisconsin, you're facing a fourth and five from your
own ten.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
You live line, drive a punt.
Speaker 3 (30:49):
They get the ball at you're forty three, go fourteen
yards for a field goal.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
Second scoring drive.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
They get the ball at the seven after Demon's fumble
for an easy touchdown. Third scoring drive, you're at your
minus seven, get punt to the thirty six for a
net of twenty nine.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
They get a field goal and easy field goal.
Speaker 3 (31:08):
I mean, how much do you look at Luke Dunn,
your punter, and just say, dude, get it together or
we're gonna find somebody else to kick the ball.
Speaker 7 (31:17):
I mean, when you look at done, he averaged like
thirty six a punt. But it just didn't seem great
that day. But it's just an overall team effort. I
can't I understand what Greg is saying. We never got
to play the short field, but the entire effort, Like defensively,
if you hold them to thirteen points and fifty yards passing,
(31:41):
you have to win. Like we talk about this dynamic
offense we have. We have three dynamic players in Boston,
Demand Williams and Jonah yet we cannot score when we
play some of these Big ten teams. I'm gonna keep
laying it on the offense and our head coaches are
offensive coordinator.
Speaker 6 (31:59):
I'm laying it right, dude.
Speaker 1 (32:00):
Yeah, Greg, how about you.
Speaker 4 (32:02):
Yeah, there's some games throughout the season, and Mario, you
know this, even when winning seasons where you just got
to just swing it out, slog it out in the
bog and the mud and the mush, where you just
gotta run play field position, punt the ball when you
get the fourth down, and then you got to run
the ball and try to you know, keep drives alive.
You gotta take field goals when you get in field
(32:24):
goal range, and you got to get off the field
on third downs.
Speaker 5 (32:27):
And we didn't do any of those things.
Speaker 4 (32:29):
Well, I think the biggest part of it is fundamentally,
we don't run the ball enough. We don't run it
well enough. We don't flip the field position with our
kicking game, our punter. You know, I'm gonna channel my
entertick Bear. The kicking game really was one third of
this loss where we couldn't get flip the field and
(32:50):
make them happen because they're in a challenged offense. The
worst thing you can do is give them the short field.
So the turnovers and the short punts were like kryptonite,
and we just could not get out of our own way.
I'm sure we outgained them in yard is because you know,
from the thirty to the thirty, you know, we got
some yards on probably about three drives there. But because
we couldn't run the ball efficiently and couldn't flip the field,
(33:14):
you know, we end up losing to a team like
Wisconsin on the road. Because it was one of those
games I could Purdue when I was a.
Speaker 5 (33:21):
Senior that we just had to slog it out.
Speaker 4 (33:23):
I think it ended up with one hundred and one yards,
you know, just enough to you know, win the field
position battle. And I'm sure that USC game or that
Cow game, Mario, the National Championship year, you guys had
to pull some things out. So we're not equipped to
win those types of games. And that's a problem.
Speaker 1 (33:38):
Well here comes Purdue. Guys.
Speaker 3 (33:40):
They've lost sixteen consecutive games in the Big Ten. They're
ow and nine this year, sorry to seven this year,
they were oh to nine a year ago. They're two
and twenty one, and their last twenty three Big Ten games.
They are terrible, all right, Greg, you used the word
putrid earlier in the show to describe the hut Skis
on Saturday. Purdue has been putrid and everything they do,
(34:04):
so I guess my question is this Washington comes out,
they look great, they put up five hundred yards fifty points.
De Mine Williams goes nuts. How much is that gonna
actually make you feel.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
Better, Mario? If they demolish this Purdue team on.
Speaker 7 (34:17):
Saturday, Actually, Softie is not gonna make you through a
better at all. I just feel like those first three
games where we were running.
Speaker 6 (34:26):
Our offense looked great.
Speaker 7 (34:27):
We're scoring ten times in a row and nobody can
stop us, and Demon's playing good, Boston's playing good, Jonas
playing good. I think we just need to get back
on track for this Purdue game, But those last two
games are What's important to me is going out to
UCLA and maybe sneaking a win against Oregon.
Speaker 3 (34:45):
Greg, how about you, how much can you take, honestly
from this game on Saturday with Purdue.
Speaker 4 (34:50):
Nothing, Because we are going to look good. We're going
to look like we have at home against the Illinois
against who was it the Rutgers and the three out
of the four quarters.
Speaker 5 (35:00):
We're gonna look like that, and.
Speaker 4 (35:02):
There's nothing that I can think of in front of
me that says we're not. Even if Jonah Coleman doesn't play,
even if Drew as a Party don't play, I think
we're still gonna score thirty five points minimum and probably
win by at least fourteen.
Speaker 5 (35:17):
So I don't think that means a lot to me.
Speaker 4 (35:20):
Going down to UCLA and finding a way to win
there will be the thing that makes me feel better.
And then we'll talk about Oregon when we get there.
You know how I feel about them, so I'll save
comments about them until that week arrives.
Speaker 3 (35:32):
Well, I would just say you're exactly right, and I'll
say it for you that I think all of Huskination
is going to be sitting around for this game on Saturday,
and probably even the UCLA game in some ways and
just thinking, you know what, nothing really matters until the
Oregon game. You want to lose to Wisconsin whatever, Okay, great,
but then make it up to me by knocking off
the Ducks in Seattle in a couple of weeks from now.
Speaker 1 (35:53):
So I'm with you.
Speaker 3 (35:54):
I know we're doing a terrible job of selling tickets
for the game on Saturday. I guess Purdue, But I
just don't know what we can see that would make
us feel.
Speaker 1 (36:02):
Like, Okay, now we're back.
Speaker 3 (36:04):
Now we're back on track because the balloon's been popped. Guys,
at least for the CFP, that is over all right.

let's make somebody happy, Jackson. Let's put a smile on
somebody's face. Because our final we fly you by contest

Speaker 3 (01:33):
We're gonna get your airfair courtesy a Delta game tickets
courtesy Venue Kings dot Com, and you'll get to see
the Dogs play the Bruins and the Rose Bowl next Saturday.
But now we've got that out of the way, let's
get to Saturday in Wisconsin, thirteen ten loss to the Badgers.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Guys, what in the hell happened?
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Why are we sitting here talking about a six and
three team, Greg Lewis, I'm not a seven to two team,
which we all thought we'd be talking about today.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
But we're not.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
Well, I you know, the game is almost inexplicable, Softie.
I'll say this. It was one of the worst road
trips ever. Our flight was delayed several hours. We couldn't
find a place to eat when we got there. It
was cold as I don't know what. The Huskies lost
to one of the worst offensive teams in the history
of college football, and I got sick, so for me,
(02:22):
the trip was just completely bad. No, I this team
is like jackal and Hyde. It is a different team
on the road, especially offensively, than they are at home.
On the road, seems like Demand Williams can't really get
on track. It seems like the offensive line certainly had struggled,
and even the play calling has been you know, not
(02:43):
as creative, doesn't look as good, doesn't look as certain
as it does at home. And I think just purely
on the offensive side of the football, we have not
figured out how to prepare, how to get ready, and
how to execute a really good football game. Because at
home this team looks like they can score almost every drive,
and on the road this week, if not for a
(03:03):
block punt, we would not have.
Speaker 5 (03:05):
Scored a touchdown the entire game.
Speaker 6 (03:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
Miserable, Absolutely miserable.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
I mean, Mario, it kind of feels like you gave
Wisconsin everything they got with the short fields and the
mistakes made by the football team. But you know, here
we go and the road was just continue for this
football team. I mean, you saw the same game we
saw on Saturday. How do you explain what happened in
Madison Saturday afternoon.
Speaker 6 (03:30):
Man, Well, first of all, sorry I missed the trip
with you guys.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
I'm sure you are.
Speaker 6 (03:37):
Yeah, you missed.
Speaker 5 (03:38):
You missed a great trip. Real Yeah.
Speaker 7 (03:40):
Really I must be a good luck cho on him
or something, though, because that was just totally disgusting. I
think I heard Greg on the radio say putred like
our offense, Like, I'm not sure about our offense. You
talk about it being on the road, but the three
games we lost we had ten, seven and six points.
The play calling and it's horrible. We talk about our defense.
(04:02):
I'm always talking about our defense isn't that great? But
in actuality, our defense is okay. Our defense keeps us
in some games, they don't cause enough turnovers, But offensively
we just look horrible. Demon Williams if they ever have
a spy, looked like Wisconsin had a spy on an
entire game. Once Jonah went out, the game was pretty
(04:23):
much over. Like Greg said, if it wasn't for the
block punp we don't even score a touchdown this game.
I don't understand what's going on or why the coaches
can't get these guys motivated when we get on the road.
We're not getting a fast start, but we're not finishing either.
The only time we ever finished was against Maryland and
maybe Wazoo, but those aren't competitive teams. Wisconsin, that was
(04:44):
the worst offense I've ever seen. If you're leading the
passing yards with twenty four yards and it's the punter,
they don't you lose a game?
Speaker 6 (04:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (04:52):
I mean, Greg, if you were to told somebody before
the game that Wisconsin's leading passer would be their putter,
you would have said, where do I sign?
Speaker 7 (04:59):
Right?
Speaker 3 (05:00):
This is again another opportunity for the Huskies to kind
of shake that road monkey, and they haven't been able
to do it. As a matter of fact, you look
at Demon Williams in the three games they played in
the Big Ten on the road this year, Maryland, Michigan
and Wisconsin. He's not even averaging six yards of throw.
He's got three touchdowns and five picks. So, I mean,
(05:21):
you tell me what's going on with us offense on
the road.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Is it the schedule?
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Is that nerves? What is the difference you mentioned jekyln Hyde.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
Why, Well, there's a few things that I know they're
not doing well, and I can't necessarily explain why.
Speaker 5 (05:36):
But let me point some of those things out.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
One, if you have never committed to the run game
and making sure that regardless of opponent plays and all
of that, that you can run the ball effectively and
with a commitment, it hurts you, especially on the road
in bad weather conditions in the conference like the Big Ten.
We have never made that commitment, and we talked about it,
(06:01):
all three of us, that this team is not committed
to turning around and handing the ball off to the
running back twenty five times. And in a game like this,
you know our pass game was. I mean from the
very first play, I believe Demon Williams missed Denzel Bosson
out in the flat by about four yards. I mean
the ball was underground, way out in front of him.
(06:23):
And so in games like this, you just got to
slog it out and you got to turn around and
hand the ball to your running back, and your offensive
line has got to get you three and a half
four yards. And it's a ball control and it's a
field position game. And in a field position game, you
got to be committed to the run, and your punter
has got to flip the field for you and give
you good field position. Our punting game was atrocious. I
(06:46):
mean there were twenty yard punts, thirty yard punts, and
so we never could win the field position battle to
have shorter fields in order to slog it out, and
they'll use your run game. So our non commitment to
the run, our punter being a frocious and our quarterback
just not playing well on the road, and our offensive
line seems to always have a key injury when we
(07:08):
go on the road or play in one of these
slug fests, slog it out type of games. Drew as
a party who's probably been our most consistent offensive lignement
went down early in the game, and then your running
back goes down. And no disrespect to Adam Muhammett, but
he's not as dynamic and a big play caliber type
guy that Jonah Coleman is if you continue to give
(07:28):
Jonah the ball play off to play. So we got
to have a commitment to the run game in order
to be successful on the road in bad weather conditions.
Our punters got to punt the ball forty five yards
and flip the field, and we just have to have
that commitment to running the game behind that offensive line
that can get you three and a half four yards.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
Well, we'll talk about the playing game in a second.
Special teams in a lot of ways is why you
lost the game. It's also in a lot of ways, Mario,
the only reason why you were in the game right
with the block by Anthony Ward that set up the
one yard touchdown drive. That was a one yard pass
to Denzel Boston after Jonah could not get in on
first and goal from the one yard line. But let's
go back to the run game, because I feel like
(08:08):
a broken record. Guys, Mario, we can start with you
that here we are and you've played nine games and
Jonah Coleman is eighteenth and the Big Ten and Big
Ten games only in rushing.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
He's eighth in attempts.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
UCLA's quarterback has more rushing yards in Big Ten games
than Jonah Coleman does, which is obviously not where anybody
thought or hoped U Dubb's running game would be. You know,
we thought Jonah Coleman when the year began on lestided, Mario,
was it all American, not just Big Ten, but all
American type running back for you, Dub.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
And that's not happening. So is it lack of carries?
Speaker 3 (08:41):
This Greg's been pointing out, is it the offensive line
just being way too dinged up over the course of
the year.
Speaker 6 (08:47):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (08:47):
Is it scheme?
Speaker 5 (08:48):
Is it him?
Speaker 1 (08:49):
The hell's going on with this running game?
Speaker 6 (08:51):
Mario?
Speaker 7 (08:52):
I think it's the collective. And if you look at
the last six games been big Big ten games. She
started out with three fifty he now has maybe six fifties,
so he has three hundred yards in the last six games.
He's averaging fifty yards a game. I know he didn't
play that much this pass game, but we're not getting
in the carries. The line is hurt.
Speaker 6 (09:12):
And we don't have a great scheme.
Speaker 7 (09:13):
And I said it after those three games that they're
gonna key on him because he was the guy that
had the engine rolling. But now and last year, same thing.
In the Big ten, he's not averaging maybe fifty yards
a game.
Speaker 6 (09:28):
I don't know what coach needs to do.
Speaker 7 (09:30):
We talked about it earlier in the season that coach
I used to say he likes the sexy thing and
he likes to.
Speaker 6 (09:35):
Throw the ball.
Speaker 7 (09:36):
We're not being intentional about running the ball, and we're
not giving him twenty carries a game. He's only had
twenty carries maybe once or twice. I don't know what
to do because it's a collective effort.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
Yeah, I mean, greg as Mario said, we got a
guy here in Jonah Coleman, who's I mean, it's just
it's it's painful to hear you say it, but it's true.
He's not even averaging fifty yards a game and six
big Big ten games three points seve ven yards per carry.
I mean, I don't know. Do you think there's any
part of him that regrets coming back. I mean, this
is not what he came back for. He's getting paid
a bunch of money, I know that, but this has
(10:09):
been again. I'm not saying it's his fault, per se,
but nothing's short of a disaster for him in his
last year.
Speaker 4 (10:16):
Well, I doubt if he has regrets for coming back
because Jonah Coleman is a husky and when I talked
to him, when I've had conversations with him, he loves
being at the University of Washington. He loves his teammates,
he loves Jed Fish, and that's the main reason why
he came back. Coach Spiez is somebody that he left
the University of Arizona for and came here and you know,
(10:36):
it certainly hasn't gone as he's hope, but he is
on the flip side of that, one of the leaning
touchdown scores in the country.
Speaker 5 (10:44):
He's had a lot of success.
Speaker 4 (10:45):
People know what Jonah Coman can do, and he's not doing.
Speaker 5 (10:49):
It for free.
Speaker 4 (10:50):
You know, those of us who played in our era,
we did it for free, and whether we were getting
fifty yards or two hundred and fifty yards, there was nothing,
you know, compensation that was coming. So Jonah Coleman will
still have an opportunity to play at the next level.
It will come down to his abilities, his talent and
all of that, because he will get a shot in
the NFL. But he's played, he made a decision come
(11:13):
back play this year, hadn't done as he's wanted to.
But I can tell you he's a team guy. He
loves his teammates, he loves his coach, and he ain't
doing it for nothing. So yeah, I'm sure Jonah Coleman's
all right.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
Yeah, I don't have any desire or any debate about
all that, Greg, And I guess I just meant, you know,
just more of the frustration from him, and you know,
you mentioned the touchdowns, which are great, right, but Mario,
he had nine of them in the first three games
of the year against let's face it, nobody, and then
when the big ten starts, he's got, you know, four
touchdowns in the last six games, and again not even
(11:44):
averaging fifty yards of carry. And I think you're exactly right.
I think it is the collective. And and now that
Landon hatchets banged up, and now that as a party's
banged up, you know, we may see pockey fee.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Now switch over to right tackle.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
How do you make sure, guys, Mario, that this thing
doesn't spiral? How do you make sure that you don't
get beat twice by Wisconsin? And take this into the
Purdue game on Saturday.
Speaker 7 (12:07):
I think we go into this Purdue game as we
win in those first three games, and we go back
to Jonah and we go back to running the ball.
If you look at the last game, we I think
Demand threw it thirty two times, but only for one
hundred and fifty yards. We need Jonah. We need to
go back to that recipe that we had those first
three games. And I'm hoping Coach Fish, Purdue is not
(12:27):
a great team offensively, defensively, special teams that we go
back to those first three games and we pound the
ball and give it to him twenty times. So maybe
this is the ingredient that we needed to get him
back on track. I don't know how he finishes, because
we play Oregon in Ucla, but at least salvage the
season a little bit for this man and for our
team and go back to running the ball.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
Yeah, and Greg, we'll see if Jonahs even healthy, right,
I mean, you know, Jed didn't really commit to him
playing this weekend against Purdue, so we'll see.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
It's a knee problem.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
You remember at halftime of the Wisconsin Jed said that
he thought he'd be good to go, and he wasn't.
I mean, you've been in that situation before. They put
a brace on him and he just couldn't do it.
Speaker 5 (13:08):
Yeah, he certainly has.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
You know, for Jonah Coleman to come out, there has
to be something that is at least somewhat serious, because
you know, he's not a you know, a guy who
would stand on the sideline if he knew he could
play at all. So I would have some concern there.
But you know, Mario, all what you said sounds good,
but coach Fish is who he is. He is not
going to change and all of a sudden becomes someone different.
Speaker 5 (13:33):
So uh and and this team they played great at home.
Speaker 4 (13:37):
When they get in Husky Stadium and they get against
teams you know that don't have great all American type
of guys on their defense, they do what they do
and they look almost unstoppable. I don't expect anything to
be different this Saturday against Purdue. You know what the
real test will be is when they go down to UCLA.
Speaker 5 (13:55):
And I don't want to.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
Skip ahead a bunch, but when they go to another
road game against a team who they should beat and
see what they do there, because that's where this team
really looks like they struggle. And so for me, this
per new game, we'll probably see an offense that looks
similar to how it has been.
Speaker 5 (14:13):
We're gonna see.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
Roebuck, We're gonna see Vines Bright, We're gonna see Denzel
Boston catching passes.
Speaker 5 (14:18):
Our running backs will make plays, whether.
Speaker 4 (14:20):
It's Adam Mohammad or Jonah, but they're gonna get the
ball somewhere between fifteen and eighteen times unless we get
up thirty five points going into the fourth quarter, then
we might run the clock out, getting those guys extra carrieres.
But in the meat of the game, this is just
the type of coach.
Speaker 5 (14:36):
That Fish is. He loves to mix things up.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
You know, be somewhat, you know, multiple, But we do
throw the ball in first down sometimes, so I don't
expect it to look a lot different than it has
than it did against the Illinois or something like that.
Speaker 6 (14:52):
Well, what did you think it looked like last week?
Speaker 7 (14:54):
Because we threw the ball thirty two times, we only
had one hundred and thirty four yards.
Speaker 6 (14:58):
I don't see this happening down threat.
Speaker 7 (15:00):
And I started season saying Demond was accurate, but I
don't think he's accurate down the field.
Speaker 6 (15:06):
I think we always throw short.
Speaker 7 (15:08):
I think he's kind of accurate when he's out of
the pocket, when he's when they're putting him out of.
Speaker 6 (15:12):
The pocket to throw the ball. But we don't have
a deep threat.
Speaker 7 (15:16):
So I understand coach Fish wants to throw the ball,
but we don't have real playmakers like that.
Speaker 4 (15:22):
Yeah, I think I would say not just short, but
they throw the ball well in the intermediate part of
the field, so you know that ten to fifteen yards
I wouldn't disagree with you that he may not be
as accurate down the field. I haven't, you know, run
the data to see, you know, necessarily what that looks like.
But yeah, there haven't been a lot of sixty and
(15:42):
seventy yard touchdowns. There's been a few over the top.
I'm not saying that they shouldn't real I'm just saying
the reality is, we've seen what we're to the last
three games of the year. This's went by fast, but
what we've seen, to me isn't going to change. And
I think that's who what feels comfortable calling that intermediate
passing game.
Speaker 5 (16:03):
And they're going to stick with that.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
They'll run the ball, you know, as much as they
need to in his mind. But what it doesn't do
is bote well when you.
Speaker 5 (16:12):
Go on the road.
Speaker 4 (16:13):
It is tougher on the road, especially in the Big Ten,
in these physical games and in these bad weather games.
You gotta have a running back that's ready to tote them.
I mean, when's the last time. I don't think it's
ever happened since Fish has been here that the running
back has gotten twenty five plus carries and the guys
saw me who averaged one hundred yards a game. Believe me,
they are games where they got twenty five to thirty
(16:35):
yards a carry, because that's just how the numbers work out.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
Yeah, Jonah had twenty three against USC a year ago
in the twenty six to twenty one win over the Trojans,
and he had twenty four earlier this year against CSU.
He has not had a nineteen gary carry game since.
As a matter of fact, Jonah Coleman has gone nine
straight Big Ten games now without one hundred yard day,
(16:58):
at nine in a row, going back to USC a
year ago in November. But you know, just Mario Seton
Gregg said, they're kind of insinuating a little bit right
that Jed's being a little stubborn with the play calling
him in third and twelve. Mid third, you're up ten
to three, and instead of just playing for the punt
and just giving the ball back to a putrid Wisconsin
offense with the lead, he decides to drop back and
(17:20):
Demon Williams fumbles the football. So people on that play
thought that maybe he should have been even more conservative.
What did you think that on that decision? And how
much of that do you put on the quarterback for
dropping the rock? And how much do you put on
the coach for the play call there?
Speaker 7 (17:35):
I thought it was a horrible decision, but I said
it all last season. I think coach Fish likes the
sas he likes to throw the ball, and I think
right now you're going on recruits and he's trying to
get demand the ball to keep him for next year.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
Yeah, well, let's do this. We'll get a break.
Speaker 3 (17:52):
We'll come back and talk about Jet's future, which he
addressed rather sternly, I think at the press conference this
week just yesterday.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
Want to get your thoughts on that. Coming up next,
we continue Husky Hanks.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
Huskies lose to Wisconsin, Now get Purdue on Saturday, twelve

Greg Lewis, Mario Bailey and Dave Suffie Muller on your
home for the Husky Sports Radio ninety three point three
kjr FM.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
All right, Husky Hawks are back right here on a
Tuesday afternoon. Big thanks to you a local thirty two

for over one hundred and thirty five years. K two
vision RL, no readers, no glasses, no contexts plus never

a scar forward in can't puget sounds Ford experts for
(18:45):
over sixty five years. So, guys, as you know, there's
a lot of chatter, a lot of open jobs around
college football. Craig, we talked last week about, hey, do
you want to think about giving Jennet extension? And then boom,
the whole thing falls apart against Wisconsin. So I assume
that we can just forget those conversations for now. But
Jedfish did address his name being attached to all these
(19:09):
job openings and also people that believe he doesn't want
to be here because his family lives in Tucson. Take
and listen to this clip and then we'll react to it.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
On the other end, what.
Speaker 8 (19:19):
Would your message be to fans who see certain jobs
open and see your name attached to him and showing
up on lists, and you know, see the young talent
you guys have and want to be really excited about
the future, but are are concerned about what it would mean,
if you know if things went that way.
Speaker 9 (19:37):
Yeah, I would say those lists are made by people
that have no idea what's going on. Honestly, they don't
know what's happening in our program. They have no idea
how excited I am about the youth in our program.
They have no idea how excited I am about the
fact that we're playing six or seven true freshmen. No
idea how excited I am about the fact that we're
(19:57):
that demon Williams I believe has a chance over the
next year or two years after this, to be one
of the all time best quarterbacks.
Speaker 5 (20:04):
That have come through this area.
Speaker 9 (20:07):
I don't think that they would know how I enjoy
coaching here, that we've spent a ton of money into
building this program the way we want to build it,
that I had a great hand in all the facilities.
I was a big part of making the decisions on
how we wanted to recreate this space, to give our
players an unbelievable opportunity to have a recovery room that
(20:28):
they never had, working on making sure that they have
the best nutrition they could possibly have, give them great
new meeting rooms, new office spaces for our coaches. I
think Unfortunately, what happens is they just want to tie
coaches to lists, and then we have to sit there
and defend it, rather than just be able to just
tell our fans, like our players, our coaching staff, myself,
my family, we love coaching at the University of Washington.
(20:50):
And the ridiculousness of people that want to claim that
because my wife and daughters are living in Arizona, because
I have a sixteen year old who's been in five
different school was in the last eight years to finish
your high school, has anything to do with my decision
or the ridiculousness of just putting my name on a
list just to do it. Only that does effect recruiting.
(21:11):
It affects our team, it affects our staff, and my
hope is that our players, our coaches, our families understand
how much we love it at Washington.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
All right, well, guys, there you go, and Mario will
start with you. Jed trying to diffuse any idea that
he doesn't want to be here with that clip right
there that was from yesterday's press conference, are you buying
what he's selling their pal?
Speaker 7 (21:35):
I thought coach sounded great. I thought it was a
great answer, But no, I'm not buying it. And you know,
where there's smoke, there's fire. And we've all thought since
Coach Fish got here that he had one foot in
and one foot out the door. I'm sure everybody watched
is still watching the floorida job. And we've all heard
the rumors about his family not wanting to be here.
(21:57):
You have to say what you have to say. But
we've heard coaches say that and then be gone the
next day. I understand it completely. It's about business. It's
about doing what you want to do. I really loved
his answers and all the things that he's brought to
this program. But the bottom line is this where coach
this wants to be. Is this where he can see
himself being for ten years? I don't believe that's the case.
(22:19):
I still wish him good luck no matter what, and
hope that he stays, but I'm not sure.
Speaker 4 (22:25):
Yeah, Greg, well, he has to say what he said.
You know, you can't come out and say, yeah, I'm
interested in other jobs and I'm looking at it and
I'm listening. He has to announce that he is committed
to the University of Washington because the kids are watching
and they're listening. And if he does end up at Washington,
no one offers him a job or offers him the
(22:48):
right job or the right amount of money.
Speaker 5 (22:49):
And he comes back. You know, he can't have folks.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
Thinking that he might leave and that impact recruiting and
that sort of stuff. But having said all that, I
think he means what he's saying. Think right now, that's
where he's at, and that's where his mindset is. I
think that there's always a job and an amount of
money that could change your mind. And that's when you
know you need to ask him. When the end of
(23:14):
the season comes and a team like a Florida comes
and says we want to offer you, you know, ten
fifteen million a year, will you come, That's when the
rebel will meet the row. But I think what he
said he means right now, he's invested a lot in
this program, not just as he said x's and o's,
but the facilities and who we recruit and how we recruit,
(23:34):
and what the program looks like.
Speaker 5 (23:36):
He's invested in that.
Speaker 4 (23:38):
I think his family will understand whether this is the
best place for him as his coaching career progresses, or
somewhere else's they'll adapt. That's the life that you sign
up for when you're married to a football coach. So
I don't think the family impact will have as much
on it as some people think. So I think he
means what he says right now. We'll see if that
rings true when the right job for the right amount
(24:01):
of money is offered.
Speaker 6 (24:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
I mean, guys, look, we've seen coaches that while they're here,
they're not invested, right. I think we saw that with
the guy that came over from Notre Dame obviously whose
name will not be mentioned on this radio show, but
at Ryan's with Tyrone Willingham.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
We've seen coaches that are not invested while they're here.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
I don't have any doubt that Jed Fish is one
hundred percent invested and working his ass off today to
make Washington better. I'm just with Mario that I just
really questioned his desire to be here long term, and
I think that's absolutely more than fair. You know, again,
going back to the game though, with with Wisconsin, for
(24:42):
him to leave and take another job, I mean, guys,
he's got to be desirable to another program, right, And
you would think if he's gonna leave, he's gonna leave
for either a A job like UCLA for family reasons, right,
or a more desirable, higher profile gig like a Penn
State of Florida potentially.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
I don't know if he's that desirable right now.
Speaker 3 (25:03):
I mean, if you're looking for a coach and you're
out there like UCLA, Penn State, Mario, Florida, are you
looking at Jeed Fish as a guy that's high on
your list.
Speaker 6 (25:13):
I'm not.
Speaker 7 (25:14):
And that's why I said when we had the show
last week or two weeks ago, that I wasn't trying
to give him extension. I don't know what his record
is at Washington, but it's almost five hundred.
Speaker 6 (25:24):
I haven't seen any great victories.
Speaker 7 (25:26):
I think we talked about the Illinois game being his
greatest victory as a Washington head coach. So I don't
see that, and I don't see somebody offering him big money.
But I also don't see coaches somebody that Washington is
his dream job either.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
Yeah, he's twelve and ten, twelve and ten overall.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
I mean, again, it is not kind of part of
this equation, Greg that you kind of might be stuck
in a no man's land where he may not want
to be here long term. But how does he suppose
how does he leave unless somebody gives him the job
he's looking for.
Speaker 4 (25:55):
Well, I'll say this, as long as he's committed and
doing what he needs to do to make our program
as successful as it can be, and he's all in
and he's committed, then I'm not worried about, you know,
that other stuff. I'm more concerned about him figuring out
how to get this team to play better on the road,
because they're a great football team at home, and on
the road they seem to have struggles. So I'm more
(26:17):
concerned with him figuring that out. I don't you know,
we're saying he doesn't want to be here long term,
but where what has he said that's made everyone say
that we're reading the tea leaves, And I'm telling you,
I don't believe in soothsaying.
Speaker 5 (26:30):
I don't believe in fortune telling.
Speaker 4 (26:31):
I don't believe in none of that reading the tea
leaves or the card stuff. Unless he doesn't look like
he's as committed or has said something that makes it
makes me know that his family doesn't want him here
and he doesn't want to be here, then I'm not
buying into all that kind of stuff. That's just not
how I operate. I don't read Tea leaves.
Speaker 9 (26:49):
Bro.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
Yeah, well I get that.
Speaker 6 (26:51):
I get that.
Speaker 3 (26:51):
I mean, look, and Greg, you might be right, you
might be one hundred percent right that Jetfish ends up
being and I could.
Speaker 4 (26:57):
Be wrong, but I'm just not going to try to
speculate less he says something does something.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
Well, I think there's I mean, to me, there's two things.
And again, this is all just this is just been.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
We're fans, right, Mario, we all talk, we all speculate
about all this stuff. And I think number one, his
resume and just the fact that he's moved around as
much as he has is clearly a little bit of
a white flag. And then number two, the fact that
up until yesterday, that was the farthest he's gone when
it comes to him talking about Washington. And I still
don't even think it was far enough. I mean, you know,
(27:27):
I hate to give Dan Lanning credit for anything, but
Dan Lanning a couple of weeks ago was pretty freakin
adamant when he came out and said there is zero
chance I'm leaving Oregon.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
Zero And I would have loved to have heard something
like that.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
Mario from Jetfish months ago and we're still waiting for it.
Speaker 7 (27:44):
Yeah, and I don't think we're gonna hear. And Greg,
you are absolutely right. I don't know about all your
tea leaves or whatever, but you can't say coach hasn't
been given it his all and he's doing everything possible
and we haven't heard him say anything different. But he
did not give us again he like Landing did in Oregon,
and we're never gonna get that because I just honestly believe,
(28:06):
and it's my gut. And nothing against coach Fish if
you want what you want, I have no nothing against
Coach de boor as well for leaving, like if you
want to read leave, but I just feel like he
doesn't give us a sense that this is his dream
job and he'll be here for the next five to
ten years.
Speaker 6 (28:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (28:21):
Hey, hey, guys, I bet you if Dan Lanning got
offered by Georgia for fifteen million dollars a year, he'd go,
I bet you.
Speaker 6 (28:28):
Yeah, I mean, Georgia would be the only place.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Yeah, but Greg, you're probably right.
Speaker 3 (28:33):
But the difference is there's nobody in Eugene talking about
Dan Lanning taking off because of the way he's handled
it and Mario is exactly correct. These guys are full
of it. They lie all the time, right, So how
about you do this? How about just lie to us, man,
just light to us.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
And make us feel like there's a chance I think
it might.
Speaker 3 (28:48):
Be here long term. We're gonna break, come back and
wrap it up. A few more thoughts on the Wisconsin disaster.

nominate Anthony Ward. He made a couple tackles and he
gave us our only seven points. So I'm nominating Anthony Ward.
Speaker 6 (30:14):
All right.
Speaker 3 (30:14):
Well, by the way, we did do the Player of
the Game. You just don't remember it on the show
on Saturday because you were just got tired, all right.
Speaker 6 (30:21):
So yeah, we we.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
Just we just we actually did it on the show
on Saturday.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
Guys.
Speaker 3 (30:29):
I'm just going back to the Wisconsin game, and the
frustrating thing, Mario is just how much they just completely gave.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
The game away. I mean, you mentioned the first segment.
Speaker 3 (30:37):
If your opponent's leading passer is the punter, not a
game that you should lose. Come on, first scoring drive
for Wisconsin, you're facing a fourth and five from your
own ten.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
You live line, drive a punt.
Speaker 3 (30:49):
They get the ball at you're forty three, go fourteen
yards for a field goal.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
Second scoring drive.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
They get the ball at the seven after Demon's fumble
for an easy touchdown. Third scoring drive, you're at your
minus seven, get punt to the thirty six for a
net of twenty nine.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
They get a field goal and easy field goal.
Speaker 3 (31:08):
I mean, how much do you look at Luke Dunn,
your punter, and just say, dude, get it together or
we're gonna find somebody else to kick the ball.
Speaker 7 (31:17):
I mean, when you look at done, he averaged like
thirty six a punt. But it just didn't seem great
that day. But it's just an overall team effort. I
can't I understand what Greg is saying. We never got
to play the short field, but the entire effort, Like defensively,
if you hold them to thirteen points and fifty yards passing,
(31:41):
you have to win. Like we talk about this dynamic
offense we have. We have three dynamic players in Boston,
Demand Williams and Jonah yet we cannot score when we
play some of these Big ten teams. I'm gonna keep
laying it on the offense and our head coaches are
offensive coordinator.
Speaker 6 (31:59):
I'm laying it right, dude.
Speaker 1 (32:00):
Yeah, Greg, how about you.
Speaker 4 (32:02):
Yeah, there's some games throughout the season, and Mario, you
know this, even when winning seasons where you just got
to just swing it out, slog it out in the
bog and the mud and the mush, where you just
gotta run play field position, punt the ball when you
get the fourth down, and then you got to run
the ball and try to you know, keep drives alive.
You gotta take field goals when you get in field
(32:24):
goal range, and you got to get off the field
on third downs.
Speaker 5 (32:27):
And we didn't do any of those things.
Speaker 4 (32:29):
Well, I think the biggest part of it is fundamentally,
we don't run the ball enough. We don't run it
well enough. We don't flip the field position with our
kicking game, our punter. You know, I'm gonna channel my
entertick Bear. The kicking game really was one third of
this loss where we couldn't get flip the field and
(32:50):
make them happen because they're in a challenged offense. The
worst thing you can do is give them the short field.
So the turnovers and the short punts were like kryptonite,
and we just could not get out of our own way.
I'm sure we outgained them in yard is because you know,
from the thirty to the thirty, you know, we got
some yards on probably about three drives there. But because
we couldn't run the ball efficiently and couldn't flip the field,
(33:14):
you know, we end up losing to a team like
Wisconsin on the road. Because it was one of those
games I could Purdue when I was a.
Speaker 5 (33:21):
Senior that we just had to slog it out.
Speaker 4 (33:23):
I think it ended up with one hundred and one yards,
you know, just enough to you know, win the field
position battle. And I'm sure that USC game or that
Cow game, Mario, the National Championship year, you guys had
to pull some things out. So we're not equipped to
win those types of games. And that's a problem.
Speaker 1 (33:38):
Well here comes Purdue. Guys.
Speaker 3 (33:40):
They've lost sixteen consecutive games in the Big Ten. They're
ow and nine this year, sorry to seven this year,
they were oh to nine a year ago. They're two
and twenty one, and their last twenty three Big Ten games.
They are terrible, all right, Greg, you used the word
putrid earlier in the show to describe the hut Skis
on Saturday. Purdue has been putrid and everything they do,
(34:04):
so I guess my question is this Washington comes out,
they look great, they put up five hundred yards fifty points.
De Mine Williams goes nuts. How much is that gonna
actually make you feel.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
Better, Mario? If they demolish this Purdue team on.
Speaker 7 (34:17):
Saturday, Actually, Softie is not gonna make you through a
better at all. I just feel like those first three
games where we were running.
Speaker 6 (34:26):
Our offense looked great.
Speaker 7 (34:27):
We're scoring ten times in a row and nobody can
stop us, and Demon's playing good, Boston's playing good, Jonas
playing good. I think we just need to get back
on track for this Purdue game, But those last two
games are What's important to me is going out to
UCLA and maybe sneaking a win against Oregon.
Speaker 3 (34:45):
Greg, how about you, how much can you take, honestly
from this game on Saturday with Purdue.
Speaker 4 (34:50):
Nothing, Because we are going to look good. We're going
to look like we have at home against the Illinois
against who was it the Rutgers and the three out
of the four quarters.
Speaker 5 (35:00):
We're gonna look like that, and.
Speaker 4 (35:02):
There's nothing that I can think of in front of
me that says we're not. Even if Jonah Coleman doesn't play,
even if Drew as a Party don't play, I think
we're still gonna score thirty five points minimum and probably
win by at least fourteen.
Speaker 5 (35:17):
So I don't think that means a lot to me.
Speaker 4 (35:20):
Going down to UCLA and finding a way to win
there will be the thing that makes me feel better.
And then we'll talk about Oregon when we get there.
You know how I feel about them, so I'll save
comments about them until that week arrives.
Speaker 3 (35:32):
Well, I would just say you're exactly right, and I'll
say it for you that I think all of Huskination
is going to be sitting around for this game on Saturday,
and probably even the UCLA game in some ways and
just thinking, you know what, nothing really matters until the
Oregon game. You want to lose to Wisconsin whatever, Okay, great,
but then make it up to me by knocking off
the Ducks in Seattle in a couple of weeks from now.
Speaker 1 (35:53):
So I'm with you.
Speaker 3 (35:54):
I know we're doing a terrible job of selling tickets
for the game on Saturday. I guess Purdue, But I
just don't know what we can see that would make
us feel.
Speaker 1 (36:02):
Like, Okay, now we're back.
Speaker 3 (36:04):
Now we're back on track because the balloon's been popped. Guys,
at least for the CFP, that is over all right.
That's it for the Husky Hawks. Big thanks too, are
in our foundation specialists serving Western Washington for over twenty
years in Delta Airlines, and Todd Loisel, who won the
trip to UCLA next Saturday courtesy ADULTA.
Speaker 1 (36:25):
We're Gonna break.
Speaker 3 (36:25):
John Wilner joins next on ninety three to three KJRFM.
Speaker 6 (36:28):
God hold, I'll get him out of here.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
