Can the Washington Huskies secure their top targets in the 2026 recruiting class? Jedd Fisch's coaching staff is looking to improve its roster talent ahead of its second season in the Big Ten with top talent like Brady Smigiel, Anthony Jones, Davon Benjamin, Esun Tafa, and more. Running backs coach Scottie Graham also appears very interested in committing to a strong run game by pairing commit Ansu Sanoe with one of the best backs on the West Coast, either Brian Bonner Jr. or Deshonne Redeaux.

Locked On Huskies hosts Roman Tomashoff and Lars Hanson also discuss Washington basketball, analyzing the recent loss against Rutgers, which was dominated by Dylan Harper, and the potential of Danny Sprinkle's future building blocks like Mekhi Mason, Zoom Diallo, and Tyler Harris combined with a strong recruiting class highlighted by Niko Bundalo and JJ Mandaquit.

Discover how the Huskies plan to elevate their game and what it means for their future. Tune in for exclusive insights and expert analysis.
