Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

And thus, (probably) ends the Huskies season...

    Modern era is Roy IMO

    Old school without a doubt is the Pride of Roosevelt, James Edwards

    Brandon Roy was the best player in the nation his senior year. I don't know how anyone could pick against that.

    I never saw Edwards until he was mostly washed in the league but I hate Garfield and Roosevelt equally (if for different reasons) but if I can love Roy I can love him too.
    I sometimes wonder if other Seattle kids hate Garfield or Roosevelt more. As a Rough Rider, I feel like I understand some of the reasons. I'm just glad they never succumbed to pressure to change the mascot to something stupid like Earthquakers.
    The important thing is nobody even cares about Franklin.

    Hard to find a public Seattle school that has produced more football talent than Aaron Pierce, Mario Bailey and Corey Dillon.

    I knew about Hasty and Metcalf but was trying to keep it to just Dwags.

    Didn't realize Zachery was FQ as well, he was part of the first UW team I really remember watching.

    Fred Hutchinson – MLB pitcher and manager, namesake of Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center; class of 1937

    the most famous alum for many years

    Arguably still most famous.

    Don’t change the subject. Franklin was the one game everyone knew was winnable in Kingco 4A.

    It's sad to see how far FQ has fallen

    Bien que j'aimais ces gars-là, Roy en particulier, car il était vraiment la première superstar des Huskies quand j'ai commencé à les suivre, étant de la côte Est du Canada, j'allais voir peut-être une poignée de jeux Husky par an, et ce n'est que lorsque ils étaient vraiment bons. Des années où ils étaient mauvais, je ne les voyais parfois pas du tout.
    Grâce au streaming reddit, il a été beaucoup plus facile de regarder les jeux au cours des dernières saisons, alors oui, il y a probablement un peu de biais de récence.

    Can we just get back to bumping threads of BTP guaranteeing deep tourny runs, McDaniels being POTY, and how ELITE everyone on the team is?
