Coach Jake Dickert joined Jason “Puck” Puckett on the latest Coug’s Corner….They recapped Boise State nightmare. Ashton Jeanty, best performance Coach Dickert has seen in person.  Tackling continues to be an issue for the team, is it fixable? It’s a bye week for the coaches, but not really a bye week because they are busier than ever. What are there plans for recruiting?  Jake says he has 10 more years coaching before he hangs it up. What does he plan on doing after he’s done coaching?  And, will he spend the next 10 years at WSU?Jake joes about midwest traditions…brats, brandy at Christmas, hot dish, ice in your beer. Lastly, the impact of NIL and the commitment of today’s athlete. 

On this week’s ‘Old Crimson Podcast, Jason “Puck” Puckett is joined by former All-American safety Paul Sorensen, Jim Moore and we get a quick report from Jamey Vinnick from Cougfan.com at the start of the show with the breaking news that Gonzaga is joining the Pac-12.  What’s next for the conference since they need to add one more school for football.  Puck and Jim would like to circle back to UNLV, but Paul likes Memphis. Tackling continues to be the issue for the Cougars and there defense was overpowered for the second straight week by a Mountain West school.  That raises a huge red flag! Bye week is critical for the health of the football team, in particular the health of QB John Mateer, who is taking an absolute beating the last few games. If it keeps up he won’t last the season Despite the loss, the Cougars still have a great opportunity to run the rest of their schedule, but in order to do so, some major changes need to take place with their defense. 

Bill Krueger, Root Sports, puts the finishing touches on the season for the Mariners. What led to them missing the playoffs again. If ownership won’t pay for players how will they improve?   Core of young pitchers will stay together, but about Luis Castillo.  Lastly, should Mariners fans feel good about their team moving forward?

How do the Cougs avoid a letdown after Boise loss.  Will Oregon overlook Michigan State in anticipation for their game against Ohio State?

Jason “Puck” Puckett jumps right into various topics the Seahawks loss to Detroit loss with the latest edition of “HawksNest” with Tim Booth and Curtis Crabtree.   What led to the loss?  All agree they feel much better about the team despite the loss to the Lions.  Geno Smith was excellent Defense was poor, but expected with all the losses on the defensive line.

Jim Duquette, MLB Network Radio stops by for his final visit of the season.  They dive right into the Mariners failures this season and dissected what went wrong and how they could possibly fix it. Jim didn’t like the decision for Jerry Dipoto not to do an official end of the year press conference and agreed that John Stanton, the owner should have been present to answer specific questions like why he decided to bring Dipoto and general manager Justin Hollander back for another season. Despite Dipoto saying his outfield is set, Puck and Duquette wonder if they will still try and move Randy Arozarena in the offseason.  Duquette is convinced that they will shot Luis Castillo.  The move would free up $72 million and bring some young talent back. Dipoto claims that they will not have any financial restraints, but they owe a lot of money in arbitration to a number of players and that won’t leave them a lot once they are finished with those players.
