Mostly a terrible home slate for the season ticket holders. Lots of nice road games though.

Nebraska and Minnesota should excite the fans. 

BYU will sell out one way or another. If the Badger fans don't go, the Cougar fans will. 

The rest all look like duds. But you never know.

Yep, Minnie and UNL are the headliners. If BYU is what it was last year, not so much then.

By the way, when is the last time you were able to say the "UW WR corps should be beastly"?

Time for King Barry to hit up the regents to pay Ted Gilmore.
I did a look back on this. It's tricky because UW is of course more 3-wide than it's even been, so few could boast the depth. We've had a run of 1-good WR teams or no great WR teams. 
2016 was actually pretty good, but not great. You'd have to go back to 2011 when Toon and Abby were very good, Duckworth was fine
2010 - Toon and Abby were not yet as good as they ended up, but both played a good bit, plus Gilreath and Isaac Anderson as a pretty good No. 4

2005 - Brandon Williams, Jonathan Orr were both good, Brandon White was a nice No. 3

But the two best involved the overlap of generations. 
2003 - Lee Evans as a mother, Williams off a 660-yard season, Orr off an 800-yard season Darrin Charles in there too.
2000 - Evans, Chambers, Nick Davis. 

Before that, did UW play WRs?

DaRamus and Dawkins were pretty good in 1993. Probably have to go back to Al Toon to find another good one.

The final piece to the coaching puzzle was announced today. Bobby April III has been hired to coach the OLB position.

Lots of connections to Jimmy Leonhard's old coaches in the NFL.
