- Greg Biggins has more on the latest Husky commit, safety Cameron Williams, who says he was sold on Chris Petersen’s “Built for Life” program.
- Adam Jude features former UW offensive coordinator Jonathan Smith. Now the coach at Oregon State, Smith is tasked with taking a 1-11 Beaver team to Columbus for a Week One matchup with Ohio State.
- Dennis Dodd covered Media Day for CBS Sports, and while Chris Petersen downplayed the Auburn game, Dodd says it’s huge for the conference.
He almost smiled a few times:
