This episode, we first basked in the glory of Washington-Oregon and then did our darnedest to jinx this Saturday’s Colorado game. We also discussed:
Peyton Henry’s improvement over his career
Kalen DeBoer’s potential (keyword there, we have no way of knowing for sure) 4D chess of anticipating Lanning’s tactical aggressiveness and planning their own philosophy around it
Or like, DeBoer didn’t do that and we’re reading too much into things
Just general tactical philosophies et al and how those played into Saturday
The mental #excellence that makes Michael Penix so good
The defense being not super great for most of the game and then stepping up when it mattered
Tackling: Important part of football? Or importantest part of football?
How can we convince ourselves to be scared of Colorado?

That’s right, you know it: For the first time in Vegas Golden Knights UW Dawg Pound history, all three of Andrew, Gabey, and Coach are on the same episode of All We Hear is Purple. Surely, you will tell your grandchildren of this day. On this episode, we talk about:
That very silly wind
Washington’s secondary making both Coach and Gabey clench their butts multiple times Saturday
The pre-snap motion that made us go full LeoDiCaprioPointing.jpeg “They’re throwing it to him and he’s gonna convert”
Comparables for Michael Penix’s ability to bounce back after the pick six, and Kalen DeBoer’s faith in him
Potential for the Dawgs’ running backs in the passing game against Oregon
How can Washington bring back Bad Bo that the world got to know at Auburn, and why have we mostly seen Good Bo at Oregon?

Welcome to this week’s edition of All We Hear is Purple. The Beavers are coming to town for a Friday night showdown, so Coach B joins the podcast for a discussion of Jonathan Smith’s project in Corvallis. Andrew and Coach B talk about the Beavers’ proclivity to keep the ball on the ground despite a balanced group of skill-position players from all over the map. They also discuss how OSU will try to slow down the Husky offense and whether Cal’s game plan is a useful template or the product of a series of unlucky coin flips. From there, they move on to the state of the Pac-12. The Dawgs have a tall mountain to climb to get into the Pac-12 Title Game. Oregon has the inside track, but USC, UCLA, and Utah all have a good chance to stay in the mix. Who is going to finish strong to make the title game? Finally, Andrew and Coach B turn their eyes away from Husky Stadium to talk about local HS football, UW soccer, and Filipino food. Make sure you listen to the end to see if Cody Pickett shows up.

Welcome to this week's edition of All We Hear is Purple. Gabey and Coach B are on an important diplomatic mission this week, so UWDP Editor and guru Max Vrooman has entered the chat. Max and Andrew start with a recap of the Cal game. The talk about the illusion of defensive superiority, a running back rabble, and a group of Cal players who sound like villains from the movie Trading Places. Next, they take advantage of the bye week to hand out some midseason awards- MVPs, breakout players, disappointments, and the best moment of the season. Before wrapping up, they make sure to talk about Noel Fielding and the Great British Baking Show yet again, plus the impenetrable accents of Derry Girls and whether we’re more likely to die from bioweapons or getting swallowed by the sun. You know, the usual fare. Go Dawgs!! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Good day fine fellow people, today the crew returns after being unable to record last week, for which we deeply apologize. Just kidding, we never apologize. Apologizing is for nerds! Anyways, this week we talked about a number of the most exciting topics you could ever imagine, like:
Gabey’s two-week mental vacation-ish from Washington
Rome Odunze and Michael Penix being fun as heck even when other stuff isn’t
Jayden de Laura
Apologizing that we’re really not providing much insight into the actual on-field product because we’re wasting so much time on philosophy
USC-based schadenfreude and not being too surprised about their Utah loss
The unbearable weirdness of Cal
No seriously, how did Cal lose to Colorado?
And yet because Cal is extremely silly we will presumably lose to Cal...
Brian Kelly: Bad person, or the worst person?
The history of regional pro wrestling and why aren’t more people watching Frayed, dangit??

The kick-ass start to the Kalen DeBoer era ran into something of a reality check last Friday night against UCLA. Coach B joins Andrew to examine all aspects of last Fridays loss at the Rose Bowl, and to look ahead to the scorching afternoon coming up vs the Sun Devils, including:
How good is UCLA really?
Will there be an Oversized Thermometer sighting next Saturday? (Spoiler: Likely, yes)
The Dawgs recent history in the desert is Area-51 strange and disappointing - will it continue?
What will UW face in this 2022 incarnation of the Sun Devils?
Roll around the Pac-12 with: Who’s top of the Pac - Utah or USC? and.. Just how hopeless has the Colorado program become?

Hello and welcome to episode whateverth of AWHiP. Gabey is back in the correct time zone finally and if you listen carefully, you just might be able to hear a cat purring in her microphone for around .5 seconds. Probably not though. The gang — can two people be a gang? — unfortunately did not discuss any drone-related theories, but did discuss such fascinating topics as:
The poor human Tanner McKee and how everything about everything was a perfect storm for him to have a very bad night
Wayne Taulapapa having a pretty dang good night
Having a gazillion super awesome receivers
Ways that UCLA will be a pain in the butt to play against
Ways that UCLA will potentially be very much not a pain in the butt to play against

Today we have for you an astonishing podcast, by which we mean that somehow astonishingly we managed to finagle Gabey into “actually doing her” job and being on this episode because she finally used up all 1,642 excuses for why she can’t record. Anyways, a couple weeks into fall camp and the gang went for a position-by-position vibe check.
How wonderfully bizarre it feels to finally be able to say “the receivers whip ass”
Learning curves and the anti-linear nature of progress
Scott Huff...?
A cross-sport analogy for the defensive interior versus the edge
Scheme changes and how that eases the linebackers’ job
Scheme changes and how that eases the running backs’ job

This week our esteemed football guru Coach B joins Andrew to discuss the big wave of recent recruiting commitments and the looming specter of conference realignment (5 stages of grief... ever hear of it?). Gabey couldn’t make the session and was sorely missed, but she sent in this communique from an undisclosed location:
“ahem Fox Sports & the telecomms corporations & those underachieving cretins that are USC & UCLA can go choke on a foghorn”
“I hope the San Andreas fault collapses, transporting southern California into an unprecedented tectonic rift eastwards so that LA can achieve its dream of being closer to Bloomington, Indiana”
And lastly: “Larry Scott is the absolute worst”
Oh wait actually not lastly cuz I have to add “@UCLA: up yours you Los Angeles talent wasting-ass bitc**s”

Hello and welcome to one of All We Hear is Purple’s bi-annual better-than-normal episodes. That’s because today we’re joined by a certified cool person. What makes their coolness certifiable? Well when you’re a former All-Pac-10 infielder, the all-time winningest UW coach across all sports, a national champion, the head coach for Team USA, and a general Redmond #icon (go Mustangs amiright?), that’s certifiably kickass. It’s basically science. If you hadn’t figured it out by now, we’re talking about Washington Softball Head Coach Heather Tarr. We talk about:
The human component of managing a program
Husky Softball Stadium concession stand hot dogs
Team America (and Seattle U) and coaching against former players and assistants
Chris Petersen being a wise, Gandalf-like figure
The evolution of recruiting the last 15 years
The evolution of batting the last 15 years
The psychology of going from high school depth player to college star
What do Gabbie Plain and Danielle Lawrie have in common in their ass-kickingness despite them being, from the outside looking in, complete opposites?
Differences offensively between ‘22 Washington and ‘21 Washington
Becoming a head coach before turning 30
Andrew’s favorite author of late
Ozark. Also Clueless.
Plus, a cameo from Cat Tarr — the tragedy of this episode being that podcasting is sadly an auditory medium and thus none of you get to see him. So you’ll have to just trust us, he was a great cat right there. Enjoy! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
This podcast brought to you by Managing Editor Max going “Hey you guys gonna do a podcast on account of it’s spring practice and you haven’t done sh*t in two months?” to which Andrew and Gabey responded “lol oh yeah that exists.” Anyway, today we talked about spring practice stuff, such as:
Offensive line fun times
Running back fun times
Quarterback fun times
Defensive line fun times
Kalen DeBoer knowing what we want to hear, and then saying it
Like “haha what idiot would just run the inside zone all day?”
Wanting more than anything for the former-boxing-champion-slash-offensive-lineman-MJ Ale-to-defensive line transition to work out
All those new S&C player weights, complete with everyone’s favorite new coaching staff cliché, “guys are working harder than ever” and “the new staff just have a new energy”
Chuck Klosterman’s book, The 90s
The joy of letting your brain forget stuff that doesn’t matter, like sports and any franchise Disney has blown to smithereens the last five years
Rhys Darby, who is maybe perfect? Maybe?
Rhys Darby as a pirate, which is awesome.
Oh and taking it seriously when Cade Otton says Mishael Powell is good
The absurd frequency with which Gabey’s stomach revolts and chunders everywhere

This week you guys are lucky because instead of listening to just Andrew and Gabey’s voices (ew gross) and opinions (dry heaving noise) you get to hear the one and only wonderful Husky, Deontae Cooper (awesome and cool). Not only is Deontae a delightful person, but he has some great insight into all sorts of aspects of the game, both as a player and now a coach. This episode, we talked to him about:
Taking over as the head coach at Highline High School and leading them Disney movie-style to their first KingCo 2A title since the Eisenhower administration
The difference in recruiting when he was in high school versus now, and how he tries to aid his players in the process
The mental and physical aspect of going through — and overcoming — so many injuries
How strength and conditioning has changed from the 20th century to his time to now
What makes a good coach, and what he learned from the three different head coaches in his college career
What went into his decision to transfer after so long at Washington, and how that set the stage for him returning to the Puget Sound after college
Dawgs he’s looking forward to watching next season
Who worked him so hard during a conditioning session that he took the 3:10 express train to vom city

Andrew and Gabey talk about — who would’ve guessed — the things that have happened since the last episode. In other words, not that much, except:
Now the coaching staff is complete, we are contractually obligated to have opinions on them
Gabey being an idiot who’s German-ass brain takes over when deciding the pronunciation of “Inge”
Early signing day, in which the Dawgs have a class small enough that they could be a normal-sized boy band
Remaining potential targets for 2022, headlined of course by Josh Conerly
The addition of Michael Penix Jr.
The state of Oregon State, for some reason?
Some implications from the Fresno bowl game
Potatoes
Jesse Plemons and fictional universities in the Friday Night Lights canon

This week, Gabey and Andrew discuss all the things we know and the things that are rumored about how head coach Kalen DeBoer’s coaching staff is rounding out, including:
Analysis and wild guesses about who the offensive coaches will be and what that might mean for next year’s UW offense.
More of the same on the defensive side, which led to a tangent on how little they both know about the CFL.
The ideal balance between specialized roles and balanced contributors on a coaching staff.
Where things stand in the transfer portal, from Cooper McDonald’s departure to Jake Haener’s non-arrival.

This week Gabey and Andrew discuss the official hiring of new Husky head coach Kalen DeBoer, specifically:
Could DeBoer have nailed the press conference any better?
Could DeBoer and former head coach Jimmy Lake be any more opposite? (And the answer is “None. None more opposite.”)
Are Husky fans ready for the impending changing of the guard on defense? Was it time for a reset anyways?
What the potential return of Jake Haener could mean to the quarterback room, and other transfer possibilities.
How much better could Husky receivers look in the new offense?

Good morning and/or afternoon, depending on when you’re reading this, and welcome to this week’s edition of the official podcast of The Cody Pickett Fan Club. After trying half-successfully to not crap our pants over a scrimmage score being nine (9) to six (6) — a score which would make the Cheez-It Bowl itself proud — we got to talking. About what, you ask? Well, about books n’ such, of course. Just kidding, of course — I can’t read! We did however talk about the following very important topics:
The slight-to-moderate terror of seeing a final scrimmage score of “9 to 6,” how much we should take that as gospel, and how close that was to being a very “nice” score
How different scenarios change our view of which quarterback would probably be the right call to start between Thomson, Sirmon, and Morris
The trio of Cam Davis, Richard Newton, and Sean McGrew and what we’re excited about from each of them
A little bit o’ ’dunze
Inside linebacker groupings and Danny Hammer
Secondary shenanigans, focusing on Kyler Gordon
Wisconsin. Like, as a concept. (It should be noted we recorded this after their redshirt freshman star quarterback Graham Mertz tested positive for COVID but before they announced their game this weekend would be cancelled.)
How my worst personality trait is finding Quebecois accents — easily the greasiest, gnarliest, just most reprehensible accents in the world — kinda attractive... actually, that might’ve not made the final cut...

Hello and good afternoon, Gabey here. While waiting for news on the football season, the Pac-12 players’ negotiations with the conference, recruiting updates, and a certain former USC player who is maybe coming up to Washington (and who I name about five lines down), Andrew, Rob, and I decided we were just bored enough, and had just enough thoughts on current things to put together an episode. We discuss:
The Pac12Unity movement and implications moving forward
We thought Nick Rolovich was cool but maybe he’s not but also maybe he’s not irredeemable but also his apology doesn’t give me confidence in his ability to hold himself accountable? (Still better than Leach, though, if we’re being honest...)
Tight ends! Specifically Brock Bowers, who’s a freak athlete but for whom I’m not getting my hopes up, and the bizarre saga of Jack Yary, who’s twice all but confirmed he’s coming to Washington. Also, how different of prospects they are and how either would fit with the Dawgs’ offense.
Schedule shenanigans
Pickleball
What even is a Dardanelle, anyway? (It turns out I knew the answer to this while Andrew just thought he knew the answer)

Given it’s been a minute (month) or two since our last episode, we have a bit to catch up on in this one, including lots of recruiting talk as well as the recent transfer of QB Kevin Thompson into the program. As always, stick around until the end for recommendations from Andrew and Gabey as well as some Idaho potato trash talk. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Hello! Welcome back to the 24th-ish (there was an episode 18.5... that was probably a bad idea) episode of the All We Hear Is Purple podcast. Seeing as how they had nothing better to do while in quarantine, Gabey and Andrew reluctantly agreed to contract extensions earlier this week. The negotiations were fierce, which is why this week’s episode was delayed AN ENTIRE DAY and is now being released on Thursday instead of Wednesday as normal. Blame it on the talent! Anyway, back to the matter at hand, this week’s episode features Gabey and Andrew’s takes on the NFL Draft from a Husky fan’s perspective, as well as some recruiting notes from the recent string of commitments made by recruits. There are highs, there are lows, and you can even expect some “good tears” in this one. Enjoy! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Oh hello, Gabey here. If you’re reading this, I hope you’re healthy and doing as well as the world’s circumstances allow. Anyhoo, it turns out the impending NFL Draft gives Andrew, Rob, and me an excuse to blather on about football things for just long enough to make a podcast episode about it. Listen on if you want to hear:
What we think on the potential trajectory for Jacob Eason’s career (and for some reason Justin Herbert’s, as well)
Our thoughts on Nick Harris, Trey Adams, and Jared Hilbers’ varying floors and ceilings in le NFL and their potential draft spots
Hunter Bryant’s not great speed-showing at the combine versus his quite great speed showing at UW: Wtf m8?
Myles Bryant’s limitations as a lil’ short guy next to his skill value in the late rounds
Plus:
With 2020 and beyond in flux, what the ever-loving crap does the future hold for college football, the Pac-12, and UW? (Answer: We have no clue.)
And a recommendation for a new humor-and-more blog founded by a mega-funny UW grad, in case you guys want some chuckle-inducing content during the insanity of 2020.

Don’t worry, the Gabey and Andrew super tandem team up once again to entertain your college football brain for 45 minutes in this week’s episode.
