On Montlake

Who are you, and what is this? I’m Christian Caple, and On Montlake is my new site dedicated to sourced, insightful reporting on the University of Washington football program. It will be similar to what I did the last four-plus years at The Athletic, and for four years before that at The (Tacoma) News Tribune. I grew up in Longview, Wash., attended UW, worked for the student newspaper, graduated in 2010 and have been covering college football ever since. Just at Washington, I’ve covered five head coaches, a CFP appearance, an 0-12 season, a Rose Bowl, two firings and four games played in an empty stadium.
