As I arrived at Griffiths Stadium on Tuesday, the lack of snow and mild temperatures made it feel as though I should be walking to the field for a spring camp practice. Unfortunately, we’re still three-and-a-half months from spring camp. However, that time will be put to good use by Head Coach Brian Towriss and [...]

The UBC Thunderbirds have been stripped of all regular season and playoff wins in 2011 after they reported to the Canada West University Athletics Association that they used an ineligible player for all eight regular season games and both playoff games. This will not change the playoff result for the Huskies, who lost to the [...]

Yesterday’s Canada West semi-final in Vancouver between the Huskies and the UBC Thunderbirds played out like a microcosm of the entire season. The Huskies started out well and looked like they would be hard to beat, but inconsistency at quarterback and ill-timed turnovers kept the opponent in the game. The Thunderbirds were able to stay [...]

Another season has passed, and Laval has another Vanier Cup. Another well-earned, well-deserved national championship. The rest of the CIS is envious of the success of the Rouge et Or, as they have put together what many believe to be a dynasty. It’s hard to ignore what they’ve accomplished or how they did it, as [...]

One patron graced itself in the friendly confines of Griffiths Stadium Friday night, waiting if necessary to play a part in the game. This ‘fan’ often comes around when justice needs to be served, when the scales of fairness are tipping in the wrong direction. Its name is Karma. The highly anticipated 1st place showdown [...]

I don’t think sheep have much for tails, but regardless of tail size, the Regina Rams left with theirs between their legs after a 52-29 beating which was delivered upon them by the first-place Saskatchewan Huskies. The Huskies wrap up first place for the third year in a row, and they did it in dominant [...]

With a math and stats degree in his back pocket, Travis Gorski has seen his share of concepts. Student-athletes like him learn formulas and concepts for hours on end until they can’t think straight, and use the football field as an escape from the classroom. But, as the 5”9 165 pound wide receiver out of [...]

We’ve all seen those glorified movie trailers in which an attempt is made to make the movie seem like the next best thing to grace the earth since the automobile. What we often find out when seeing the real thing is that the movie actually sucks, the hype was nothing like what everyone was gushing [...]

Singapore. A country home to the 6th highest percentage of foreigners, and for the first part of his life, Dale Furber.

In being a football fan, there are many different kinds of losses we deal with. There are losses that are heartbreaking to the core. Take the well-documented 2009 Grey Cup result for example. One inexcusable mistake lost the Riders a game they had in the bag and sent fans and players alike, into an off [...]

Starting, as we always do, with another fine article from The Saskatoon StarPhoenix’s Kevin Mitchell, who wrote on Huskies running back Ben Coakwell. Coakwell will start today against the Rams in Regina. Absence made Ben Coakwell’s heart grow fonder. Coakwell, the University of Saskatchewan Huskies’ tailback who is both new and old, fulfilled a three-year-old [...]
