Also on the show, Jim Duquette of MLB Network Radio and Bill Krueger and Brad Adam of ROOT Sports.  The full show is two-plus hours and will come out on Thursday, November 21 and is exclusively available to  Puck’s Posse Community Members.

The show covers the 2024 season and what lies ahead for the 2025 season and discusses if ownership is truly all in on investing in a World Series contender. Lastly, Puck wraps up with “Hey, What the Puck!?” It’s time for the Mariners to jump into the deep end of the pool and play with the big boys. No more talking about championships. Prove it. 

On this weeks ‘Old Crimson, Jason “Puck” Puckett is once again joined by Paul Sorensen, Jim Moore and Jamey Vinnick from Cougfan.com The boys get right into the loss to New Mexico, which has now kicked them out of the College Football playoff discussion.  Once again the Cougars defense failed to deliver and Puck brought up the point that he would like to see a coaching change at the defensive coordinator position or at least have Jake Dickert take over play calling duties. They question the offensive strategy under Ben Arbuckle and wonder why he went away from the running game so quickly in the second half when it was working so effectively in the first half?   Should the Cougs incorporate more zone read for John Mateer moving forward?  And, again the problem with the Air Raid is their lack of commitment to staying consistent with the rushing attack. Dickert made headlines this week when he said Oregon State are not there buddies.  Some in the Cougars community have taken issue with what he said. Paul and Puck didn’t see the problem with what he said, but Jim did and they discuss. Lastly,  now that the carrot of the playoffs is over, what motivates the team for the last two weeks?

Washington State defensive tackle David Gusta joined Jason “Puck” Puckett for this weeks Coug’s Corner brought to you by the Cougar Collective and Flatstick Pub. Puck and David get into a wide ranging conversation that ranges everything from his upbringing, traveling to different countries, being accountable after the New Mexico loss, dislike of the transfer portal, impact of NIL, coaches tampering and his love for Pullman. David tells Puck that he’s avid traveler that has taken him to Japan, Singapore, Bali and Tahiti. David said it’s give him great perspective on life and how others live. How did the team handle the loss to New Mexico? David shares insights to how he and other team leaders reacted afterward. David admitted that his actions and behavior weren’t the best.  Tampering has been going on and David details what it’s been like to deal with coaches calling him to join their team.   Would David ever consider going into the portal or is he fully committed to WSU?  What about the impact of the NIL?  Lastly, David details his love for Pullman and that it wasn’t always the case, but as he’s gotten older it’s a town he couldn’t ever imagine being anywhere else.

Puck and Danny go down the rabbit hole of talking about the Legion of Boom.   Devon Witherspoon is the closest thing to the L.O.B. that they have had since that group was on the field.  Expectations have now changed for the Seahawks and it’s incredible to watch and follow this team week in and week out.  The Seahawks can be in first place this weekend which is incredible to think of! The Jets are still a disaster and Aaron Rogers has fired another member of the team.  Puck and Danny have put Rogers on “The Barge” out to the pacific ocean.  Where does Danny want Deion Sanders to land in the NFL next season?  Danny also answers fantasy football questions with “Waiver Wire Tuesday.” John Canzano, JohnCanzano.com joins Jason “Puck” Puckett for his weekly chat about all things college football.  They jump right into the discussion about Jake Dickert’s comments about Oregon State.  Was he in the wrong about what he said?Jake Dickert has other problems on the field, specifically in regards to his defense and offensive play calling.

Does it properly take advantage of the skill set of John Mateer?Oregon survived against Wisconsin.  John points out that it’s a tired football team.  John also shares his thoughts on the matchup between Oregon and Washington in two weeks. John thinks it will be a blowout.  Will Jedd Fisch turn to Demond Williams against Oregon or stick with Will Rogers?Is the SEC truly the best conference in football and do they deserve the majority of the teams?Lastly, since Puck is off next week, John offers up his favorite Thanksgiving meals. Finally, Puck wraps up the show with “Hey, What the Puck!?”  Fans need to calm down about the Jake Dickert comments about Oregon State.

On today’s Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett is joined by Tim Booth, Seattle Times and Curtis Crabtree, FOX 13 for the Ground Puck Seahawks Podcast.  Puck starts off the show without Jim Moore, who is out sick, talking bout the Seahawks win and that without a doubt it was a signature win for Mike Macdonald.  The Seahawks season was on the brink and they were able to pull off a great win on the road. Geno was great on the final drive and the defense looked like how we all thought Mike Macdonald’s defense was going to look. Puck switched gears and talked about the Cougars loss to New Mexico and once again the defense continues to be an issue. Puck thinks a change needs to be made with their defensive coordinator and let Jake Dickert just call the defense for the final two games of the season. But, Puck could sense a loss was coming and it finally did. Tim Booth, Seattle Times and Curtis Crabtree, FOX 13 join Jason “Puck” Puckett for the Ground Puck Seahawks Podcast brought to you by Georgetown Brewery. All three agree that was clearly the best win of the season and one of the best wins for the Seahawks in the last several years. The defense was no doubt the story from the game, but the performance of Geno Smith, especially on the final drive was quintessential the “Geno Smith Roller Coaster” experience! Offensive line looked better with Abe Lucas back and Olu Oluwatimi playing center. However, as the three discussed, the running game is still very much an issue.  Devon Witherspoon was everywhere and just showed why he’s such an unbelievable weapon for Macdonald.  The play of Tyrice Knight and Ernest Jones was phenomenal and illustrated why a move at linebacker was necessary. All of sudden the Seahawks have a legitimate shot to claim first place in the division next week.  Sports are dumb and terrific at the same time. Puck then returns and discusses the rest of the sports weekend with “Weekend Roundup.”   The dud that was the Mike Tyson/Jake Paul fight, however, the women’s fight was incredible.  Are the Steelers now a legit Super Bowl contender?  Drew Lock can’t catch a break and big deal the Bills beat the Chiefs. Prove it in the playoffs. Finally, “Hey, What the Puck!?”  Puck goes back to the Seahawks.  Sports are incredibly stupid and incredibly awesome at the same time. Most Seahawks fans and Puck included had written this team off, but they found a way to have a gutsy physical win.  A win that could very well define Mike Macdonald and the rest of the season.

On today’s Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett was joined by Jim Moore, the Go-2-Guy who jumps on the show every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.  Also joining the show on Friday was former Seahawks linebacker Lofa Tatupu, PuckSports handicapper TroyWins.com and Chris Egan from KING 5. Puck and Jim start off the show talking about the news that Dave Sims is leaving the Mariners and will become the new radio voice of the New York Yankees. They discuss who should replace Dave on both radio and TV and Puck makes his pitch for Gary Hill on the radio side. What will they do on the TV side of things?Puck is worried about the Cougs game against New Mexico and Jim is starting to share those concerns.  They welcome Lofa Tatupu to the show to talk about the Seahawks game against the 49ers and how the Seahawks could possibly pull off the upset.  Lofa details his business ventures with Savage Brewery and 1937 Cannabis Farms. Lofa said he was surprised that the Seahawks moved on from their linebackers but understands the decision. Lofa sees a lack of physicality and play making ability from that group.  Lofa is also surprised by the sloppiness and undisciplined football from the players and the coaches.  As they turn their attention to the 49ers, the biggest question is how do you stop Christian McCaffrey? it will take the whole defense to focus and gang tackle, something as Lofa points out that they have been bad at this season. PuckSports handicapperTroyWins.com joins the boys to discuss the upcoming football weekend. Troy gives his “Lock of the Week” and all three introduce a new segment, “Dog of the Week.”  Each picked an underdog and will keep tally for the rest of the season.  They also discussed Friday’s fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson. Chris Egan of KING 5 joined Jason “Puck” Puckett to wrap up the Friday show.  Egan and Puck talked about the greatest sports broadcasters in Seattle history with the news of Dave Sims leaving for New York. Egan chastised Puck and Cougar fans for always focusing in on the Huskies. Puck fired back at Egan that this has been a glorious year to be a Cougar fan and we love that the Huskies are struggling! Egan has an addiction to Safeway chicken tenders and needs help. He also details his love for $150 turkeys and why does he keep buying them?Friday marks the start of the 16-team high school football playoffs and Egan details his KING 5 “Big Game of the Week” featuring Decatur High School. They also promote their high school playoff preview show that featured them and Todd Milles of ScoreBookLiveWA and Jon Manley of the Tacoma News-Tribune. Lastly, “Hey, What the Puck!?”  Puck can’t wait to watch Mike Tyson destroy Jake Paul in their fight on Netflix.  Puck wants the younger generation to get a glimpse of how dominant of a fighter that Tyson was.
