I think I speak for most Husky fans when I believe the combination of head coach Kalen DeBoer and OC Ryan Grubb will significantly raise the floor of the offense and consistently put a very good product on the field. Things are much less certain on the defense, which has taken some small steps backwards in the past few years. The defense should still be solid, but the coaching staff on that side of the ball is much less proven than their offensive counterparts. We also won’t have (what appears right now to be) an elite secondary to lean on.
