Hardcore Husky Podcast: The Don James Years (1977) Featuring Race Bannon

DerekJohnson

A few weeks ago, some posters on Hardcore Husky were saying they didn't know much about the Don James years at Washington. They said it would be great to hear discussion about it. So Derek and Race will be recording some podcasts about various seasons from the James Era. This episode they tackle the 1977 Rose Bowl season. They meandered a bit, but it makes for good listening.

One detail I was going to bring up but we skipped quickly past the San Jose State game, was that the SJSU game was referenced in the Ted Bundy movie called The Deliberate Stranger. Bundy is lying in bed with his girlfriend in a scene set in 1977, and talking about how casual sex doesn't appeal to him. He said it appealed to him about as much as sitting in the cold rain of Husky Stadium watching a game against San Jose State.

Race, thanks for the FREE PUB in reference to Wisconsin.

Disappointed there was no mention *gurgle* when talking about the former owner of the Rams who drowned.

My two dads brought me home from the hospital the day of the '78 Rose Bowel.

Sounds like your parents had their priorities right

My parents left me with a babysitter and said they were going to the 1985 Freedom Bowl. I never heard from them again.

Finally got around to listening to the entirety of the pod. Race described Jim Owens nearly word for word as my grandfather did back when I was a kid.
Loved the episode!

When we get to the 1991 season, I'm going to try to get @iDawg to join us.
