Episode Details

Washington Huskies’ roster overhaul accelerates as top defensive line prospects, including Miami's Donta Simpson and Ball State's Darin Conley, emerge as must-get transfer portal targets for Jedd Fisch's team. Can Washington rebuild the trenches and take their defense to the next level in the Big Ten?

Locked On Huskies host Roman Tomashoff spotlights key transfer moves, breaks down Bryce Butler’s impact departure to Texas Tech, and assesses the Huskies’ heightened urgency at running back and cornerback with major production gaps to fill. Hot topics include Hunter Green’s arrival at punter to compete with Luke Dunne, competition among young playmakers like running backs Jordan Washington and Brian Bonner and cornerbacks Dylan Robinson and Rahsjon Duncan, and whether Washington’s faith in raw talent can pay off amid a surge of portal activity. With big questions looming over pass protection, secondary depth, and defensive line rotation, strategy and leadership will decide if the Huskies stay competitive this fall.
