Husky D didn't look too bad...

Dr. Lou
Lou Holtz is doing a corny segment called Dr. Lou, he gives advice to college coaches. I think he was talking to Arkansas, but it really applies to the UW
“Take your defensive line and move them to the offensive line. They are great at making big holes!”
Redshirts
I completely disagree with the decision to play Terrance Dailey in the this game, but dang the other two backs just don’t look that good. Willie Griffin would be fine if he holds on to the ball, so why not let him go in there and hold onto the ball instead of burning Dailey’s eligibility to get a handful of carries the rest of the season? Ugh.
On a positive note, we’ve been hearing about how Cody Bruns and Anthony Boyles might play, but even with D’Andre Goodwin out, they’re going with Tony Chidiac and Charles Hawkins instead.
And now that Dailey is eligible, he’d better get at least 7-8 more touches tonight.
Tyrone Willingham is burning Redshirt Bridge
on his way out of town.
Red & orange shirts?
Is he burning redshirts on purpose to trash this program as much as possible before he’s gone? There is absolutely no reason you put both of those guys into this game, they stood no chance at helping us win. Five years from now we could be really really bad at this rate. With the problems in recruiting right now and all the redshirts being wasted this is the worst case scenario.
Terrance Dailey got 1 touch in the 2nd half
And Cody Bruns got zero. Normally there is at least some kind of slim explanation for things, even if I don’t agree with it. Here, the only possible explanation for burning redshirts is that the coaches know they’re gone and they’re just screwing with us. Seriously, there is literally no other reason. I guess one of the first jobs that the next coach gets is to decide which of his sophomores to redshirt… unbelievable.
I’m going to keep griping about the roster situation because what I just watched on the field is too ugly for discussion.
I meant two touches
But the point still stands.
Although I just counted, and Washington ran a whopping 20 plays in the entire second half. How many times did they fail to pick up 2nd-and-1 or 3rd-and-1? Isn’t this like Luke Kravitz’s one and only job? And yet they’re running toss sweep plays to Terrance Dailey?
