Mike Hopkins knows Huskies have their hands full with back-to-back games against Washington State

Dawgman Radio: A Washington Huskies athletics podcast

It's a situation Mike Hopkins probably never thought he'd ever deal with, but he's now had to do it twice in the past two seasons. Because of COVID and how the pandemic has wreaked havoc with scheduling, the Washington Huskies had to play Arizona State in back-to-back games in Tempe last season, and now the Huskies will play their in-state rivals from Washington State twice in four days, starting Wednesday.

In speaking to the media today, Hopkins showered the Cougars with praise for how they play on both ends of the court, as well as positive takeaways from playing three top-15 teams in a week and what it's going to take for the Huskies to finish the season strong. And lastly, he was asked for his thoughts on Jim Boeheim and Mike Krzyzewski coaching against each other for the final time ever this season and if he had any thoughts about going back to Syracuse after Boeheim eventually retires.
