Here's the latest from the Washington State gridiron, as seen from the CF.C lens.. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1280529.html 2047 ROD COMMONS http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1280529.html Wed, 03 Apr 2013 23:43:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN -- Saturday saw brighter skies and brighter play from the Cougs on the second day of spring practices. The QBs were slinging the ball and hitting receivers in stride all day. A familiar face was making big plays on defense, a new BUCK linebacker continued to make waves and an o-lineman is standing tall. And although we’re only two days into spring ball, one thing has become very apparent. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1277358.html 2047 JOE DOYLE http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1277358.html Sat, 23 Mar 2013 21:52:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN–The defensive secondary has arguably the most question marks of any position group on D this spring. The Cougs return every player with the exception of Daniel Simmons, but the question begs -- who’s going to raise their game? The secondary struggled in 2012 and nothing seems concrete for 2013. There are reasons for optimism but will a true gem or two emerge and if so, whom might that be? http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1276749.html 2047 JOE DOYLE http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1276749.html Thu, 21 Mar 2013 22:18:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate THE COUGS HAVE a pretty good base defensively from which to build on this spring – they return nine starters on defense. But is the starting lineup on D for 2013 settled? Not a chance. There is one, just one defenseman, who is a virtual lock. And what Wazzu needs to establish this spring on defense centers around two areas that complement one another… http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1269948.html 2047 BARRY BOLTON http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1269948.html Tue, 26 Feb 2013 23:59:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate SPOKANE -- If you’re going to run Mike Leach’s offense, you have to pull the trigger. And that, Washington State running backs coach Jim Mastro told Monday’s gathering at the weekly Cougar Club Luncheon, is where the unit is struggling. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1227964.html 2047 STEVE CHRISTILAW http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1227964.html Tue, 09 Oct 2012 23:32:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate IN EACH OF THE last three weeks I’ve asked myself the same question dozens of times during my work as the color analyst on the Cougar football radio network: Will the average fan know what I mean? http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1223608.html 2047 SHAWN McWASHINGTON http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1223608.html Fri, 21 Sep 2012 17:47:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate LAS VEGAS – Mike Leach is an accomplished football coach, but his greatest skill might be his ability to answer a question at length without providing an answer. Alas, it is the reporter’s solemn duty to ask questions. So, Mike, who’s it going to be at quarterback next week – Jeff Tuel or Connor Halliday? http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1221747.html 2047 HOWIE STALWICK http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1221747.html Sat, 15 Sep 2012 17:33:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN -- Given the Pac-12 suspension of junior safety Deone Bucannon, some new faces needed to step in Tuesday and staple down the Wazzu secondary. The quarterback situation remains questionable, but a front-runner seems to have emerged. Meanwhile the linebackers continued to shift around Tuesday with another new combination hitting the field. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1220681.html 2047 JOE DOYLE http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1220681.html Wed, 12 Sep 2012 02:29:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN -- The Cougars are looking to hit someone in the mouth and in just over a week, they'll get their chance in the season opener at BYU. A look from the CF.C lens at more 2012 fall camp action at Washington State in this 25-shot pictorial.. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1213905.html 2047 ROD COMMONS http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1213905.html Wed, 22 Aug 2012 19:50:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate WITH SCHOOL NOW in session at Washington State and the season opener against BYU just 10 days away, any and all position battles not yet decided will be soon – it’s time to get the starters reps and the offense and defense running like a well-oiled machine. Here’s the look from our chair at the position battles on offense and defense -- every starter, at every position, plus special teams. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1213164.html 2047 the staff of Cougfan.com http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1213164.html Mon, 20 Aug 2012 17:48:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN -- The audible concern surrounding the WSU defense dropped another decibel level after a pair of safeties turned in solid performances Tuesday in Martin Stadium. There were shark tales, too. Meanwhile, the quarterback picture looked less muddled, as Jeff Tuel received a majority of the snaps behind center. What did Mike Leach have to say about the ongoing position battle after practice? http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1211639.html 2047 ADAM LEWIS http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1211639.html Wed, 15 Aug 2012 03:49:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN – In the second of a three-part series, Cougfan.com focuses in on the crimson stop corps, digging into the first 10 days of Washington State's fall camp to lend context and take a closer look at some of what we’ve learned. Position battles, opinion, analysis, observations and more, with the Cougar D under the microscope… http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1211157.html 2047 JOE DOYLE http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1211157.html Mon, 13 Aug 2012 20:35:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN -- The tenacity escalated at Rogers Field on Wednesday. Meanwhile, Jeff Tuel and Connor Halliday carved through WSU’s secondary before a goal line stand to end practice helped the defense to emerge victorious. The product of some back-and-forth 11-on-11 and a raucous environment had both sides buzzing by the end of the day. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1209855.html 2047 ADAM LEWIS http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1209855.html Thu, 09 Aug 2012 03:34:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN – The Cougar quarterbacks are looking to dial in, the receivers are gathering in footballs by their fingerprints and a Wazzu walk on defensive tackle, who has already served his country for four years, is one very large man. Twenty new photos from the CF.C lens… http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1209750.html 2047 ROD COMMONS http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1209750.html Wed, 08 Aug 2012 21:47:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate WASHINGTON STATE’S DEFENSIVE BACKFIELD headed into fall camp is going to give up some big plays. And it’s going to continue into the season. But that is not only a product of design, it just might not be a bad thing. In previewing the safety position, here's why. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1206687.html 2047 BARRY BOLTON http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1206687.html Mon, 30 Jul 2012 20:22:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate A POST-SPRING DEPTH CHART was released by Washington State this week for Pac-12 Media Day. Keep in mind it doesn’t list any of the new arrivals, such as WR Gabriel Marks and NT Ioane Gauta for example, who are expected to challenge for playing time when fall camp gets underway Aug. 2. Still, it does yield plenty of intriguing data, starting with walk-on wide receiver Bennett Bontemps. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1205582.html 2047 BARRY BOLTON http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1205582.html Fri, 27 Jul 2012 16:15:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN--Hello Cougar fans! Andrei Lintz back with another CF.C diary entry. This will be my last entry for the month of June as we have next week off. I have lots to cover and will try my best to pack this entry to its fullest. This week has been an exciting one on the Palouse as temperatures have increased, freshmen have arrived and the Idaho Vandals made a trip to Pullman for a friendly 7-on-7. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1197316.html 2047 ANDREI LINTZ http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1197316.html Sat, 23 Jun 2012 00:24:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN -- If you're looking for more scenes of the action out on the Palouse this spring, you've come to the right place.
