    Jake Locker Is Steve Sarkisian's Spencer Hawes

    ​As P-I columnist Art Thiel noted after the Huskies' disgusting 56-21 home loss to Nebraska, you have to go back over 30 years to find a prominent local athlete who failed so miserably on a national stage as UW quarterback Jake Locker did Saturday. Completing just four of 20 passes en route to ... More >>

    In-N-Out or Dick's? No Contest, Says Jon Brockman

    To the showers? No--straight to Dick's.​Former Husky hoop star Jon Brockman visited the Seattle Times' offices on the occasion of his having signed a three-year contract with the Milwaukee Bucks on the heels of a solid rookie season in Sacramento with the NBA's Kings.

    Is Seattle U Good Enough to Make a Game of It at Hec Ed Tuesday? Romar Thinks So

    "So, coach, what was like to dance with Baryshnikov in White Nights?"​Last year, the Seattle University men's basketball team visited Hec Ed for the inaugural rekindling of a citywide rivalry that was snuffed out 29 years prior, when the Jesuit school with a proud hoops tradition (Elgin Baylor ...

    Two Large Men the Huskies Really Miss Are in Heavy Rotation in Sacramento

    Not this year, not the way it looks now. But at least Ryan "Peekaboo" Appleby has a Twitter page.​After falling out of the national Top 25 by way of a couple lopsided road losses to the Arizona colleges this past weekend, the overhyped Huskies now find themselves at the bottom of the Pac-10 st ...

    Lucky Dawgs' Inflated Ranking a Direct Reflection of Abdul Gaddy's Inflated Ranking

    Shoot, man, it sure wasn't this hard at Bellarmine Prep.​After witnessing UW's way-harder-than-it-should-have-been 63-59 victory over Montana--Montana!--last night at Hec Ed, I've come to the conclusion that the Huskies' sky-high national ranking (#14) is directly linked to the stratospheric e ...

    Could Nate Robinson Be the Next Sacramento Husky?

    Back in April, SW ran a profile of former Husky Nate Robinson. An excellent piece by Rafe Bartholomew's, it was entitled "Nate Robinson, Little King." A prescient title that may prove. Former Husky hoop stars Jon Brockman and Spencer Hawes have reunited as members of the NBA's Sacramento Kings, and ... More >>

    Brockman Drafted by Blazers, But Reportedly Heading to Kings

    Jon Brockman's selection by Portland moments ago in the second round of the NBA draft almost gave former Sonic fans yet another reason to root for their former rivals down south. What with Nate McMillan coaching the Blazers and former schoolboy stars Brandon Roy and Martell Webster on the roster, Br ... More >>

    Jon Brockman Headed for the Promised Land?

    GoHuskies.comHusky fans may remember Jon Brockman (shown here dunking on the Cougars), last year's MVP and the men's team's all-time leading rebounder. It's been long debated whether he has the stuff to make the NBA, what with his crocodile arms and questionable ball skills. Well, it appears that Br ... More >>

    Could These Mariners Actually Be Good?

    They can actually play defense now. Jose Vidro is no longer the designated hitter. Erik Bedard is healthy. Jarrod Washburn has an awesome new pitch that may actually warrant the obligatory "he's got an awesome new pitch" articles. And seven games into the season, they just tied their longest winni ...

    13 Seattleites Who Should Try Out for The Real World Tomorrow

    Any Huskies Feeling a Draft?

    As we noted in December, for the second straight year, it seems unlikely that a Husky will hear his name called on NBA Draft Day. Nevertheless, there are a couple who have a chance. Jon Brockman may be better suited to the NFL, but his dominance over the last two years means he'll at least get a l ... More >>

    A YouTube Glimpse at Next Year's Huskies

    Saturday's loss to Purdue was a bummer, though for all their heart, this year's Dawgs didn't quite have the talent to run with the nation's elite. Next year may be different, however. The talented Quincy Pondexter has regained his confidence and improved his game to the point where an NBA career o ... More >>

    Huskies Get Their Propers

    Now that the regular season's done and they're champs of the Pac-10, the Dawgs are finally getting some love. The writers have them ranked 13th, the coaches 10th, and the computers 13th and 14th.

    Nate Robinson and Brandon Roy never won regular season Pac-10 titles, but Jon Brockman and Justin Dentmon look like they will.

    Jon Brockman's Bad Night: It Was the Jock of the Day Jinx

    Last night, Husky hoop star Jon Brockman played horribly, going 0-8 from the field. While some might attribute this to the diversified scoring of the Husky offense, or to the long-limbed defense of Taj Gibson, we offer a different explanation: it was the Jock of the Day jinx.
