Re: A Hardcore Husky O.G. sells the couch
@El_K and
The first Hardcore Husky get together I went to at the Pizza Coop in Woodinville. Had a blast, Pawz was a great guy and had fun talking 9mm’s with him for a few minutes along with all of the Dooging we did. A Circle Jerk to remember. Wish I would have slowed down on the Pilsners to remember more but gimmicks are hard to put away. Doog in Heaven my friend

Re: Husky Jacks open thread [2025]
This is right where I'm at with Judd. I think the infrastructure build out and his ability to get the admin to invest in his idea of a top flight program has been really encouraging. I think the roster building has been really solid as well. McLaughlin, Al Uquda, Alexander and Willis were good portal pickups at positions of need. The staffs ability to identify single last name and hyphenated HS talent appears to be pretty legit. Mills, Robinson, RDA, Roebuck, RVB, ZRS and Lawson all true freshman and all playing a lot, seem to have very bright futures at UW. The players that play for Fish all seem to really enjoy the experience. When you are a program that has a pretty decent, not massive NIL budget, that can come in handy with retention of talented players. Judd seems like a guy that needs a talent advantage for his schemes to really work though. He has a ceiling. He's not a Jeff Brohm that will rise up and beat a team clearly above his station. If the trajectory of the roster continues on this path though then UW should eventually have enough talent in the B10 for Fish to go 9-3 to 10-2 every year he's here. This year, somehow, if he beats the three bad teams remaining on this schedule they could be one of the least fun to watch 9-3 teams in the country with a shot at 10-2. Are you kidding me? I'll take that, cobble it together any way you can. For a team that had 40 players on the roster when he got here 20 months ago I'd chalk that up as a good sign for the future. If Cigarette hadn't lit the world on fire Judds work at UW might look a little better. Ifs, buts, candy, nuts, you and I both know the drill.

I'm very sorry to hear this. @pawz was, as Derek said, an OG and we've been trading barbs and observations for years.
A few things to say about pawz:
- Consistently reasonable and never treated anybody here badly. A gentlemen with his own opinions.
- He always backed me when I got out over my skis and was getting pounded by the mob.
- He was intellectually curious, humble and secure enough in himself to learn from other people and not pretend he knew everything. No posing with pawz.
- Politically represented the just to the right of center, center. We need more of this. Pawz had his views, but if something were being discussed he didn't run it through his party filter first to tell him how to conclude about it. IOW, a man with the requisite intellect to be discerning and not some dip shit political sloganeer. An increasingly rare commodity today. I really respected him for this trait.
- One of the dudes I would have liked to have met and hung out with were it not for my standing policy.
Rest in peace Pawz. I'm very sorry you had to go so young and in that way. You really were an OG, a gentlemen, and a real Husky. Also the owner of my favorite jif signature of all tim.
Fair winds and following seas my internet Husky friend.
