The Morning Haul: 8/29

The Morning Haul isn’t meant to be a roundup of every single newsworthy article written about Husky sports in the last day.  There are several other websites that do just that, including The Husky Haul’s Hub feature (a great source for up to date breaking news), and I think it would be a bit redundant to add another.  Instead, I will be linking only to my personal favorite five or six stories posted in the last 24 hours to serve as a sort of survival guide, so that if you don’t have time to sift through  every long list of links, you know where to go to start your morning with quality Husky sports news and analysis.

Good morning to everyone just waking up to get their fix of Husky news.  Today is the last day we will have to go without college football, and then only a handful of days after that, it will be Saturday, and time for another glorious season of University of Washington football.  Let’s hope the Pac-12 Network finally makes nice with DirecTV and Dish today so that some of us can actually watch…
