Dawgman has a preview of the rising stars camp taking place later today at Husky Stadium. Read about the defensive prospects here and the young offensive talent here.

Great story on Jake Browning and his dad in a the first of series leading up to Father's Day called #DAWGFATHERS.

4-star safety Brandon McKinney is being recruited hard by Washington and is planning a number of summer visits to big-name schools. He says not only Jimmy Lake and Chris Petersen are after him, but a 2017 Husky commit is trying to persuade him as well.

ESPN's David Lombardi looks at the quarterback challenges facing the majority of teams in the Pac-12.

Lombardi also analyzes how Arizona State plans to replace their starting QB and top two WRs from last season. UW hosts ASU November 19. He also discusses how Stanford will rebuild on defense. The Cardinal visit Husky Stadium September 30.

ICYMI, Nate Robinson had a tryout with the Seahawks. Pete Carroll was impressed but it doesn't sound like the 32-year-old will have a chance to make the team.
