The app, which includes stories and Tweets from Seattle Times sports reporter Bob Condotta, is <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/husky-football-2010/id385116613?mt=8">available</a> for $2.99.<br />
<br />
In addition to Husky football news, the app also includes a special section featuring the <a href="http://twitter.com/jakelocker">Twitter feed</a> of Heisman Trophy candidate and UW quarterback Jake Locker.<br />
<br />
<!-- more_link --> “The Seattle Times is pleased to enter this market with a product we are proud of,” said David Boardman, Executive Editor and Senior Vice President of The Seattle Times. “Husky football fans will love this app. They will now be able to take the Huskies with them wherever they go and stay constantly connected throughout the 2010 season.”<br />
<br />
The Times already offers a free mobile app for general news, but the latest offering marks the first time that the state's largest daily newspaper has experimented with a paid application in a niche category such as sports.<br />

From John CookUnknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4261072164340227612.post-10721169249470463652010-08-23T09:52:00.000-07:002010-08-23T09:52:01.512-07:00Huskies' Chris Polk makes Defenses Queasy<div class="mod-header"> <div class="sub-head"><div class="author"><span>By Ted Miller</span></div></div></div><div class="mod-content"><a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/player/profile?playerId=379206">Chris Polk</a> can make a defense YAC. <br />
<br />
That's "Yards After Contact," and opposing defenses yielded in 2009 an estimated 700 yards of it to Polk, the most successful freshman tailback in Washington history. <br />
<br />
Polk finished with 1,113 yards rushing, which ranks seventh on the Huskies' all-time list, averaging 4.9 yards per carry despite running behind an offensive line that most would agree was slightly below average. <br />
<br />
That line figures to considerably improved in 2010. Seven players with starting experience are back, and another year of offseason workouts has turned a unit that looked decidedly soft in the middle in 2008 into a physically impressive crew. <br />
<br />
<div class="mod-inline image image-right"> <div style="margin-left: 10px; width: 300px;"><a class="enlarge" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=4261072164340227612#" onclick="window.open('http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/gallery/enlargePhoto?id=5484151','Popup','width=640,height=550,scrollbars=no,noresize'); return false;">[+] Enlarge<img alt="Chris Polk" border="0" height="200" src="http://a.espncdn.com/photo/2010/0822/ncf_a_cpolkts_300.jpg" width="300" /></a> <div style="width: 300px;"><cite>AP Photo/Greg Wahl-Stephens</cite>Washington running back Chris Polk rushed for 1,113 yards and five touchdowns last season.</div></div></div>"Everybody wants to point this out as a position of weakness for us," coach Steve Sarkisian said. "In my humble opinion, it should be a position of strength." <br />
<br />
Speaking of soft: It's hard to believe that's what some thought about Polk as a true freshman. He avenged 1.6 yards per carry on 20 carries before a shoulder injury ended his season after two games (he got the year back from the NCAA). He certainly didn't do much to justify his lofty pedigree: A touted recruit, he'd turned down USC to be a Husky. <br />
<br />
But, last fall, starting with a physical 90 yards on 21 carries in the opener versus LSU, Polk consistently threw his 216 pounds into tacklers and won the leverage battle. It's even more impressive when you consider he played through a torn left labrum in his shoulder, which he suffered while throwing a block in the sixth game against Arizona. <br />
<br />
Polk takes pride in his YAC, but he doesn't want the perception of him to be limited to breaking tackles. Actually, he prefers to make guys miss. His focus during conditioning and film sessions during the offseason was trying to transform those grinding efforts into 50-yard touchdown jaunts. <br />
<br />
"I don't see myself as a power runner," said Polk, who also returns kicks and is a solid receiver. <br />
<br />
Of course, not everything was rosy for Polk and the Huskies' running game last season. There were multiple instances when the offense failed to convert in short-yardage situations, most glaringly against Notre Dame when a single yard proved unobtainable on the goal line five times. Embarrassing? Yes. <br />
<br />
"That left a bitter taste in our mouths," Polk said. "Coaches talk about it all the time as a point of emphasis." <br />
<br />
There's something else that might have left Polk bitter: A lack of credit. Despite his production, he didn't receive many accolades last season, and most of the preseason attention is focused on his quarterback, <a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/player/profile?playerId=184374">Jake Locker</a>, and running backs in the state of Oregon: Oregon's <a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/player/profile?playerId=379314">LaMichael James</a> and Oregon State's <a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/player/profile?playerId=379208">Jacquizz Rodgers</a>. <br />
<br />
And, yes, Polk does pay attention to what the more heralded running backs are doing. <br />
<br />
"I always look and see what those guys did," he said. "I love to compete. When we play each other, my goal is to be the better back." <br />
<br />
But it's not all about numbers: "I had 1,000 yards last year and it didn't really mean much during the bowl season. We were still at home," he said. <br />
<br />
Polk, who sat out spring practices after offseason shoulder surgery, figures to share the ball more this season. The Huskies are fairly deep at running back, with <a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/player/profile?playerId=379407">Johri Fogerson</a> and true freshman <a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/player/profile?playerId=499788">Jesse Callier</a> likely to get touches. <br />
<br />
Sharing is no problem, Polk said, and he also waved away the notion that playing in Locker's considerable shadow is frustrating -- "He's a true leader on the field and off the field." <br />
<br />
Polk, in fact, doesn't seem too eager to celebrate the Huskies offense, which figures to be high-powered, nor the higher expectations that surround the team in Sarkisian's second season. <br />
<br />
"We have a lot of weapons, but if we don't execute it doesn't mean anything," he said. "We're really still the underdogs. We're going to go out there and shock the nation." <br />
<br />
If that proves true, expect there to be some YAC-ing.</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4261072164340227612.post-10483552875953086862010-08-23T07:30:00.000-07:002010-08-23T07:30:19.852-07:002010-11 Husky Gold Ticket Card and Kids Can Become a Dubs' Club Member!<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Become a Dubs' Club Member!</strong></span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;"><strong><img align="right" alt="" height="115" src="http://media1.mm.ticketmaster.com/university%20of%20washington%20athletics/email/2010-DUBS-CLUB.GIF" width="150" /></strong></span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;"><strong><br />

I know he has the athleticism and talent, but his statistics are not even close to a Heisman or a first round quarterback pick. If you look at his <a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/player/profile?playerId=184374" target="_blank">career stats page</a>, you will see he only completed 58 percent of his passes last year. <br />
<br />
<b>Ted Miller</b>: People are impressed by Jake Locker because: <b>1. he's big; 2. he's fast; 3. he's smart; 4. he's a great "character" guy; 5. he's got a great arm; 6. his passing has progressively improved; 7. when you watch him on film, it doesn't take long before you go "Wow." </b><br />
<br />
His numbers haven't been terribly impressive because he began as a raw talent and his supporting cast was mediocre-to-bad. He'll pile up plenty of numbers this season. <br />
<br />
And, by the way, I get a lot of this in the mailbag. I wish no ill on any team, but the obsessive Locker-doubting makes me wonder if there might be some karmic problems hitting some teams this season when the Huskies come to town.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4261072164340227612.post-2505573130822828602010-08-20T09:16:00.000-07:002010-08-20T09:16:58.115-07:00Dawgs Pick Up Commit From Middle Linebacker Aaron Davis?Los Alamitos standout football linebacker Aaron Davis (6-0, 198lb), has committed to the University of Washington, Griffins assistant football coach Barry Sher said in a text message Wednesday.

<br />
Aaron Davis is a smart kid with good football instincts but who's recruiting has been a bit under the radar of most D1 schools so far this year. <br />
<br />
The Griffins are expecting big things from the senior this fall.<br />

<br />
After seeing him at practice three times last week, the week before he is to decide, logic just says that he would not commit to Texas after leaving there two weeks ago and not committing then.<br />
<br />
ASJ lists at 6'7 and 250lbs, looks more like he's 25 than 18 and is a kid in a man's body.<br />

Like Erastus Brainerd 103 years ago, we are promoters for all things Seattle and the Northwest! We crow about independent small coffee shops along with Starbucks; we point out Fran's and Theo as well as the hidden gem of Rosie's Chocolates in the Market. We love the new and small (<a href="http://www.badmonkeybistro.com/">Bad Monkey Bistro</a>) as well as the experienced and fabled (<a href="http://tomdouglas.com/">Tom Douglas</a>). We are hot on the leading edge of what is happening in South Lake Union (aka Allentown?) where Amazon is about to bring 10,000 employees/customers to the businesses in the area (the new Pearl District?).<br />
<br />
And we will be touting the amazing story of Jake Locker, the UW Quarterback, as it unfolds this year. Jake is an underdog's underdog for the Heisman trophy. We will allude to him whenever we can on our tours to those people from across the country so they too will recognize his name, and pay attention to his exploits.<br />
<br />
Each day a guide will be awarded the Locker jersey - No. 10 - to wear during his tours. It will be awarded for qualities that Jake undoubtedly has in spades as a Pac 10 quarterback and local boy made good: teamwork, flexibility, calmness under pressure, etc. WWJD?<br />

Above is a picture of our Guide Gathering (at <a href="http://www.badmonkeybistro.com/">Bad Monkey Bistro</a>) on July 29th.

You can link to the article from the headline but here's an excerpt of that article.<br />
<br />
<i>Look at Brockman now. On determination, on hustle, on his trademark desire to get every rebound in sight, the Snohomish native has acquired greater NBA security than originally imagined. He had to be traded from Sacramento to Milwaukee to get it, but with a new three-year contract, Brockman has defied the meager expectations of a second-round draft pick. Besides $3 million, his reward is unimaginable popularity.</i><br />
<br />
<i>The tough guy who seemingly broke his nose every other game with the Huskies now goes by a fitting new handle — the Brockness Monster. He has more than 320,000 followers on Twitter. Shaquille O'Neal has taken a liking to him, too. Sometimes, men in hard hats do become famous.</i><br />
<br />
<i>"It definitely kind of shocks me," Brockman said. "I don't know when it happened or why it happened, but I've been having fun with it. It's pretty cool."</i><br />
<br />
<i>Brockman went to Milwaukee last week to get acquainted with his new team. On that trip, he also attended a Brewers baseball game and heard numerous shouts of "Welcome to Milwaukee, Brockness Monster!" He has T-shirts that read "I believe in The Brockness Monster," and his former coach, Lorenzo Romar, even donned one last season.</i><br />
<br />
<i>Still, the 6-foot-7, 255-pound forward laughs at the attention. He didn't realize that on-court relentlessness, a little personality and averages of 2.8 points and 4.1 rebounds could go so far. Brockman isn't satisfied being a bench-warming fan favorite. Simply being in Sacramento's rotation made his rookie season a success. Now, he hopes to play an essential role on a team that made the playoffs last season.</i>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4261072164340227612.post-39956531851792143232010-07-28T16:07:00.000-07:002010-07-28T16:07:48.835-07:00Zipper Alignment Gaining Traction for 2011 Pac-10 Expansion - See AlignmentThe current alignment gaining the most support once Colorado and Utah join the Pac-10 appears to be the following East and West format:<br />

ASJ is a player the UW needs to land because with the dismissal of Middleton last week, the Dawgs are young and inexperienced at that position. ASJ would make an immediate impact both from a recruiting standpoint and play time impact in a year.<br />
<br />
Per Greg Biggins with ESPN<br />
<br />
The last time we spoke with Seferian-Jenkins, he mentioned being concerned that the Longhorns staff viewed him more as a future offensive lineman and that was something he definitely wasn't too fired up about.<br />
<br />
"It was actually a big misunderstanding on my part," Seferian-Jenkins said. "I've talked to the coaches and we're on the same page. They said they like me as a tight end but if my weight ever got up to around 280 pounds or so, I would be moved to tackle.<br />
<br />
"I'm comfortable playing around 260 pounds, that's where I see myself, so I don't think it will be an issue. Texas is a great program and I'm excited to visit them. With Washington, I love the coaching staff and they have been recruiting me forever, since I'm a local player.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4261072164340227612.post-57657329070103591262010-07-18T20:45:00.000-07:002010-07-28T08:21:08.662-07:00UW Likely to Pick Up Two Commits This Week - UpdatedUpdating this story post from 10 days ago, I was one for two in my predictions with Josh Shirley committing to the UW when offered by coach Sark. Shirley almost chose the UW deciding at the last minute on signing day last year that UCLA was a better place to him. With his release from UCLA a month or so ago, he became eligible to sign with any team and came back to the UW.<br />
<br />
Most of the local recruiting sites and contacts I have continue to say Arizona QB and the top non-committed QB available right now has chosen the UW but has not made an announcement. I'll update more as I hear but as of now I stand by my previous comment.<br />
_________________________________________________________________________________<br />
From the rumors flying around expect QB Brett Hundley and ex-UCLA and close commit Josh Shirley to make pledges to the UW this week. More news about a wide receiver from Skyline could also bubble to the surface this week.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
