SEATTLE (AP) -Washington is making sure the final home game of Jake Locker’s career is quite the spectacle.
And not just because the Huskies are wearing all black uniforms for the first time in school history.
Locker’s status for the 22nd and final home game of his career on Thursday night against UCLA was in doubt after he suffered a broken rib against Stanford on Oct. 30. He was a spectator as the Huskies (3-6, 2-4 Pac-10) lost at No. 1 Oregon, but it was widely believed he would be cleared to start against the Bruins (4-5, 2-4).
Enter the gamesmanship – and evasiveness – on the part of Washington coach Steve Sarkisian.
All week, Sarkisian played up the uncertainty of Locker’s availability.
