  "account": "Jedd Fisch and the Washington Huskies had high hopes for offensive line recruit Kodi Greene, a true freshman and former five-star recruit from Renton, Washington. Greene, who stands 6-foot-6 and weighs 315 pounds, needed time to adjust to the college level during the early part of the season. Fisch and offensive line coach Michael Switzer decided to use Greene in a rotation with 2025 Freshman All-American John Mills at the position. However, following some injuries up front, Greene has returned to a full-time role. Greene was named a Midseason True Freshman All-American by 247Sports, and he has shown promising signs of growth against Purdue, Nebraska, and Penn State. Offense line coach Switzer believes Greene's confidence has skyrocketed, and he has been playing with great confidence since the bye week. Greene has been attacking day to day, putting good film out there, and playing at a high level, which is impressive considering his mindset and mentality. As Greene continues to develop into a cornerstone piece of Washington's offensive line, he will face two big tests at the end of the regular season against Indiana and Oregon, two of the conference's best defensive lines.",
