Troy Fautanu, Pittsburgh’s first-round draft pick, was such a fan of the team growing up that he sported a Steelers license plate on his car. Every Christmas and birthday, Fautanu’s family gave him Steelers gear. His favorite NFL player was Troy Polamalu, the former Steelers great. So Fautanu wore No. 43 early in his football career until he literally grew out of it. After all, offensive tackles need much bigger numbers. So the swag Fautanu received when Pittsburgh selected him with the 20th pick meant more. A simple Steelers t-shirt now represented both his childhood and a significant moment ...

In previous seasons Washington‘s spring game simply served as a final spring practice and scrimmage within the program. But not this year, as the Huskies launched their brand new ‘Dawgs After Dark’ spring game last Friday in an event open to the public. Drawing in 18,448 fans in Husky Stadium ahead of the team’s first season under new head coach Jedd Fisch. “It’s important to me, I love it. I love a chance for our fans to experience what our kids get to do every day. Why play in an empty stadium if you can play in not an empty one?” Fisch asked following the game. Dawgs After Dark was free for...

Washington has stolen a player from within the conference after landing a transfer commitment from former Ohio State offensive lineman Enokk Vimahi. Vimahi’s NIL management group announced the pledge on their Instagram page, writing the following caption: “Congratulations Enokk Vimahi on committing to the University of Washington Huskies.

Washington linebacker Jordan Whitney has entered the NCAA transfer porta, On3 has learned. Whitney spent just one year with the Huskies, making very little impact. He did not see any game action in 2023, redshirting in the process. So he’ll have plenty of remaining eligibility wherever he ends up. And someone will assuredly take a chance on the former three-star prospect. Prior to enrolling at Washington and later entering the NCAA transfer portal, Jordan Whitney was ranked as a three-star recruit and the No. 1,123 overall prospect in the 2023 recruiting class, according to the On3 Industry Ra...

A job like the head football one at Alabama doesn’t come around for just anyone every day. It didn’t faze Kalen DeBoer during the hiring process, though, because of his circumstances and the approach he took to it all. DeBoer spoke about any nerves he had from taking the job with the Tide on ‘Bussin’ With The Boys’. He said that he wasn’t tense about any of it because a return to his program at Washington was there for him too. “No. Not at all because I had a great place where I was at,” DeBoer said this week. “In all honesty? No because I was at a great place. So, you know, it was just a matt...

ESPN NFL analyst Booger McFarland did not hold back on his thoughts on the Atlanta Falcons drafting Michael Penix Jr. While appearing on NFL Live Wednesday, McFarland explained why the Falcons made a mistake drafting the former Washington Huskies quarterback at No. 8 overall in the draft last week. “It’s tough to have your cake and eat it too,” McFarland began. “It’s tough to try to win now, which is why they signed Kirk Cousins to go with all those offensive weapons and try to prepare for the future, which is why they drafted Michael Penix Jr. To me, you got to do one or the other. “Both of t...

The Washington Huskies football program just acquired another big body out of the NCAA transfer portal. According to On3’s Pete Nakos, Old Dominion offensive lineman transfer Chris Adams has committed to playing for Washington and head coach Jedd Fisch in 2024. Adams, a sophomore, has a frame built to dominate in the trenches and possibly develop into an ideal offensive tackle. Standing at six feet six inches and weighing 286 lbs, the former Monarchs offensive lineman from Hagerstown, MD, could easily be a top-end lineman with the proper guidance and direction. Look for Fisch and Washington of...

Michael Penix Jr. wasn’t what anyone expected and not necessarily what many wanted when it came to the No. 8 pick by the Atlanta Falcons. Still, now that he’s there, Joel Klatt just hopes that it goes as well as it possibly can for the players and for the franchise. Klatt spoke about the pick of Penix in the 2024 NFL Draft during an episode of his show on Monday. For everyone’s concerns about the situation in The ATL, he is just praying that the best case scenario happens for Penix, for Kirk Cousins, and for the Falcons’ franchise “That all being said? And I want everybody to make sure that yo...

FOX Sports analyst Joel Klatt was as shocked as anyone to see former Washington quarterback Michael Penix Jr. selected No. 8 overall by the Atlanta Falcons in the 2024 NFL Draft. Atlanta, fresh off giving veteran signal caller Kirk Cousins a four-year, $180 million deal this offseason, had other pressing needs such as outside linebacker but decided to grab a quarterback for the future. Klatt, breaking down the biggest happenings of draft weekend, emphasized that while he does believe Penix was worthy of his draft slot, the Falcons being the team to pull the trigger on him is a “case of an orga...
