If you want to keep up-to-date with news concerning the football program all in one easy-to-digest format, feel free to follow me on Twitter and to subscribe to my lists of UW's beat reporters, Washington athletes, Washington coaches, and Washington football prospects. To the Dots!
Football Dots
- Jen Cohen, longtime senior associate athletic director at Washington as well as deputy to former AD Scott Woodward, has been named the university's interim athletic director. At this point, she should probably be considered the odds-on favorite to land the gig full-time.
- Scott Eklund and Chris Fetters over at Dawgman give a helpful primer on where UW stands in the recruitment of some of the top remaining uncommitted prospects in the 2016 class.
- Recruiting is beginning to hit its fever pitch, and the news and developments are coming in fast and furious. Adam Jude writes that Washington's 2016 class should be short on quantity, but long on quality.
