DawgmanRadio: Catching up with the players and coaches ahead of Kent State

The guys from Dawgman.com - Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund - gathered together to recap everything they heard from the Washington players and coaches ahead of their season opener versus Kent State Saturday night at Husky Stadium.The first part of the podcast had to do with what we heard on Monday from UW Head Coach Kalen DeBoer and the coordinators, with some specific discussion regarding their decision to have no full-time position coaches in the booth from the defensive side of the ball. Some of that has to do with special teams, but it also mirrors what both Chuck Morrell and William Inge want to get done during the game. Ryan Grubb will be up in the booth calling plays for the offense.After the first break, the talk goes to Tuesday's media availability. That meant some discussion from the players, including the first injured player we've ever been able to speak to during a game week, Edefuan Ulofoshio. He talked about what he's going to be doing on Saturday. Could he end up in the booth Saturday night? Also went in-depth on our conversation with left guard Nate Kalepo, who will be starting his first game ever in the Purple and Gold in a couple of days. And there was also some talk on another offensive lineman who will be making his first start too, right tackle Roger Rosengarten. Kim asked; who will end up grading higher after the game - Kalepo or Rosengarten?After the final break, the discussion moved to the coaches that we spoke to on Wednesday - JaMarcus Shephard, Scott Huff, Inoke Breckterfield, Eric Schmidt, and Julius Brown. They talked about the new players that will be starting Saturday for them, trying to defend a potent Kent State offense, and a lot more - including what to make of seeing an 'OR' next to the starting punter. Will it be Kevin Ryan or Jack McCallister?
