I used to use the term ‘kissing your sister’ paying compliments like that and then you end up losing the game, but I don’t feel that way with this team. I felt like this was a turning point for us and I am hoping that they feel the same way that I do. That effort against Washington, …

Gameday: Washington vs. Oregon State at Gill Coliseum

Ryan Divish — Sun, 12 Feb 2012 22:06:39 +0000

Greetings from Gill Coliseum about an hour before game time. Is Washington focused and ready to go? I can’t tell. Like Tony Wroten said, everybody gets ready in their own way. So to sit and decipher whether this team will come out and play well based on pregame warm-ups, well I might have just as good of luck flipping a coin.

One person who I expect to play well is Desmond Simmons. After a bit of a mini-slump, the redshirt freshman forward has figured out what caused it.

From my story …

The solid game for Simmons

Radio-palooza: Isaiah Thomas, Jim Shaw and me on KJR; Joe Lunard on 710

Ryan Divish — Sat, 11 Feb 2012 08:09:36 +0000

What do the former Husky hoop star, the UW assistant coach and I have in common? We were all on KJR talking hoops on Friday.

Isaiah talked about life in the NBA, guarding Kobe Bryant and other things. But the most interesting aspect was toward the end when he said that Terrence Ross and Tony Wroten should stay for another season.

Shaw tried to discuss what exactly went wrong last night in Eugene. He was disappointed by the Huskies inability to get up after getting knocked down early by the Ducks …
