Episode Details

Jedd Fisch is on the verge of building a stable, successful program with the Washington Huskies, but will he leave for the Michigan Wolverines? Locked On Husies host Roman Tomashoff breaks down why Fisch’s commitment is critical to the team’s rise, as he eyes stability, program culture, and long-term success in Seattle.

Key discussion points include the futures of star assistants like Ryan Walters, John Richardson, and Taylor Mays, plus the impact of key returners such as John Mills, Demond Williams Jr., Dezmen Roebuck, Adam Mohammed, Zaydrius Rainey-Sale, Rylon Dillard-Allen, and Dylan Robinson. Transfer portal developments, potential roster shake-ups at offensive line and secondary, and the importance of keeping top recruiters like Marcus Griffin round out a loaded agenda. How will the Huskies leverage elite recruiting, donor support, and continuity to reach college football's upper echelon? 

Don’t miss this authoritative look at Washington’s off-season strategy and what it means for their Big Ten ambitions.
