Without USC and (to a lesser extent) UCLA, the Pac-12 is losing key brands on the football field and needs teams to fill the void.
After Kalen DeBoer’s 11-2 opening season in Seattle, the Huskies show the potential of being just that.
On today’s episode of Locked On Pac-12, I am joined by Roman Tomashoff, who covers Washington for Fan Nation at Sports Illustrated.
He discusses Washington’s recent recruiting success after a slow start on the trail this summer, and whether or not it will continue.
Oregon and Washington represent the most important remaining TV products in the Pac-12 when it comes to football.
Keeping them interested in joining the league may be aided in the impending expansion to a 12-team playoff.
I also lay out why—and why if I had my way—Fresno State would be added in addition to Boise State amidst a 4-school expansion.
