Huskies have wasted a lot of talent while going without reward after the season

Another university in Washington Basketball will come to an unconscious ending on Sunday afternoon, with Huskies ending with a rather meaningless game against Oregon with Tipoff at noon at Alaska Airlines Arena.

For the 13th time in 14 seasons – and now six consecutive – UW will go without an NCAA tournament.

In fact, Huskies (13-17 overall, 4-15 League) do not play a postal season competition of any kind for the first time in 22 years because the Big Ten gets its three worst teams to stay home from the conference tournament, while PAC-12 used to invite everyone at the end.

What makes all this even more a charge of program neglect in Montlake is the scroll call from talented players who never got a whiff of NCAAS after coming to Seattle with so much optimism.

For the new coach Danny Sprinkle, fixing Washington’s long -standing absence after the season, which stretches three coaches back now, must be high on his list of household responsibilities.

Great Osobor, 6-Foot-8 Power Forward from England and is considered one of Big Ten’s Better players, is the latest to go without any UW tournament pay.

He appeared in the NCAA tournament twice with Montana State and again last year for Utah State, but he leaves Huskies without getting close to March Madness because he and his teammates end at the conference position, with as many as two matches behind everyone else if they lose to the ducks (21-8. 11-8).

Before Osobor, the UW Foot-Foot-7 brought out Keion Brooks from Kentucky, where he played in a NCAA tournament over three seasons only to miss the big dance in his two years with Huskies. That means a little that he was a 21.1-point goal scorer and a first-team All-PAC-12 election as a senior in Montlake in 2024.
