Canada is close enough to importStLouisDawg said:This is where the lack of good looking women on campus hurts us. Hopefully he has a steady girl and not looking for strange.

Loved Tuputala the 2nd half of the season last yearm
Loved Johnson this year.
DeBoer killing it with portal RBs.
Regardless of whether Johnson comes back or not, Cam Davis is solid.

You should call in your concerns during the next radio Kalen DeBoer ShowStLouisDawg said:This is where the lack of good looking women on campus hurts us. Hopefully he has a steady girl and not looking for strange.

DJ is Chris Polk on a good team. I mean that in the best way possible.
MMFG still ranks higher for me, for now. -
Not that it has anything to do with his performance (which is great), but he let anyone that wanted take a pic with him after the oregon game in Seattle. Little Atomic and I flew in for that Game and it was his first experience at husky stadium. Got a photo with him and made a husky fan for life. (No I didn't get a pic with him as I'm a grown man ffs).DerekJohnson said:
With Napoleon it was a 4-year love affair. With Dillon, it has been a hot fling of a couple months.gmo said:Massive mancrush for me too... this team loses at least 2 games this year if he hadn't transferred IMO.
For sure one of my all time favorites now, and that sure happened quickly.
But it's also seeing his humility with teammates in addition to his mega-determination in running the football and his fully giving himself up bodily to protect Penix
Super humble kid and has shown up in the biggest moments. He was dragging his amputated leg on and off the field all night in the p12 ccg. Absolute warrior. -
My RB rankings, done by the seat of my pants this very moment:
Chris Polk
Bishop Sankey
MMfG
Kaufman
Dillon
Beno
Greg Lewis
Sheehee
Louis Rankin
These are all just from my adult life and college football really started for me in 1990.
1-4 are really 1-1c. Polk is my guy though. If Johnson comes back he could easily slot in ahead of Dillon, otherwise he might land behind him.
I stayed a Rankin fan because he was pretty exciting to watch when he did find a hole. Fast dude with crazy legs. -
He's Chris Polk as a runner on an elite playoff team. He's much better in the pass game. What a fucking player he is. Great evaluation by the staff.

Pretty sure he’s a third-day draft pick at best. Unless you are seen as an elite talent, RBs are a dime a dozen in the NFL. They’re pretty disposable. I think he’d make more money at UW next year and potentially be a higher draft pick in ‘25.DoogerMcFarland said:
Dude showed the fuck up when it mattered, more than I think any of us could have expected.DerekJohnson said:After careful reflection, I have determined that he ranks #1 in my heart tied with Myles Gaskin and Napoleon Kaufman for favorite running back ever. He's also in my top 10 of favorite Huskies ever.
I selfishly want him to come back, but he has a kid and RB shelf life is short. If he gets any sort of decent draft grade, he should go IMO.ntxduck said:
He should come back. With a new qb, he’ll be the centerpiece of the offense. And the nfl treats RBs like shit $ wise. Incredibly tough player.bananasnblondes said:....and he might be back next year

I’m pretty sure I heard in a game he’s been with his baby mama since 7th grade. Give him enough NIL money to make it worth it to stay. Can you imagine our running game with him and Cam Davis back? @priapismStLouisDawg said:This is where the lack of good looking women on campus hurts us.

But is he a big back?
