DawgmanRadio: Trying to make sense of a season that was disappointing, yet eventful after Pac-12 Tourney loss

Dawgman Radio: A Washington Huskies athletics podcast

The guys from Dawgman.com - Kim Grinolds in Las Vegas and Chris Fetters in Seattle - break down Washington's 80-74 Pac-12 Tournament first round loss to USC, how they'll view the Mike Hopkins era now that it's over, and how Troy Dannen will now react to the coaching carousel knowing it's about to jump into high gear here in the next week.

To start the podcast off, Kim set the scene in Vegas pregame and then the guys gave their takes as to what went well for UW, what didn't go well, and what ultimately mattered in the Huskies' 6-point loss to USC.

Kim was also on hand to watch the postgame press conference with Hopkins and senior forward Keion Brooks, the emotion from Hop as things wrapped up, and Kim also added a couple of his favorite Hop moments over the years now that things have come to a close after seven seasons and an overall winning percentage of 52.7 percent.

After a quick break, talk turns to Washington Athletic Director Troy Dannen. What direction will Dannen take when it comes to Washington's next men's basketball coach? Has he already found his man in Utah State's Danny Sprinkle? And how difficult will it be for Dannen to work behind the scenes knowing the coaching carousel is just warming up and a lot of other coaching vacancies are going to appear in the coming days?

The guys then give their final thoughts on Hop, as well as Brooks.
