21 DAYS ‘TIL CHRISTMAS

The number 21 signifies the amount of wins that Washington head coach Mike Hopkins won in his first season at the helm last season.

He guided the program from a 9-22 record under the previous regime to a 21-13 overall record which was the biggest jump since 1936.

Hopkins was awarded the Pac-12 Coach of the Year and was only the sixth first year coach to win the award in Pac-12 history.

During last season, Hopkins also had the biggest conference wins jump in Husky history, going 10-8 when the previous staff went 2-16.
