The Cougs were also without two playmakers on offense for different reasons on Wednesday – and a new running back enters the mix. The Twitter drama isn’t over quite yet and some sumo wrestlers were spotted. Oh, and there was also some other action out on the practice field. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1233399.html 2047 JOE DOYLE http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1233399.html Thu, 25 Oct 2012 04:41:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN -- And so the saga continues. Senior offensive lineman Dan Spitz again missed practice Tuesday. This time however, coaches didn’t have the upbeat tone they exhibited previously. Elsewhere, will the recent inconsistent play of the defensive secondary result in a decision by defensive coordinator Mike Breske to play some freshmen? http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1225220.html 2047 JOE DOYLE http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1225220.html Wed, 26 Sep 2012 04:25:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate COUGAR FANS HAVE been wondering if some of the young freshman corners might be called upon in light of defensive backfield issues in recent games. Mike Leach on Tuesday discussed the contributions some of his younger players have made and more.. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1225029.html 2047 CHRIS CHANCELLOR http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1225029.html Tue, 25 Sep 2012 18:42:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN – The Cougs on Tuesday held their final full practice before they play for real Thursday night at BYU. The WSU coaches preached fundamentals and technique in a session highlighted by numerous drills and non-contact scrimmaging for the starters and key reserves. Mike Leach emphasized that the BYU tilt is just another game, and there’s no reason for the Cougs to feel overly anxious. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1215904.html 2047 JOE DOYLE http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1215904.html Wed, 29 Aug 2012 04:40:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN – The Cougs held a rather lengthy practice Sunday, cracking pads for almost three hours with the majority of the session in drills. All things said, from Day One to this point, the Cougars have taken huge strides. But on Sunday, the offense never really gained any momentum, while the defense seemed disengaged for segments of the extended session. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1215056.html 2047 JOE DOYLE http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1215056.html Mon, 27 Aug 2012 02:33:00 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 Cougs came out Sunday lacking vigor, hustle and effort. Fighting sweltering heat, the Wazzu offense sputtered and failed to establish any sort of tempo. And Mike Leach wasn't pleased. He proceeded to make it very clear to the players that if the Cougs are going to go anywhere this year, it will be predicated on effort and hustle. Plus, a ST report and a corner was sporting a new cast. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1212975.html 2047 JOE DOYLE http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1212975.html Mon, 20 Aug 2012 02:01:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN - The Cougs got out of the sun Friday, practicing at 8 p.m. for the first time this fall -- and one of Wazzu’s nose tackles returned to the field. Meanwhile, at least five true freshmen appear to be making serious runs at early playing time. Friday was a no-pads, helmets-only practice, and special teams were the focus. Oh, and junior offensive guard Niu Sale is the new punt returner. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1212587.html 2047 JOE DOYLE http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1212587.html Sat, 18 Aug 2012 06:20:00 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 -- Torched for seven touchdowns in Saturday’s scrimmage, Washington State’s defense rebounded with its most complete practice of fall camp Monday. A unit that days earlier looked disoriented made a litany of big plays despite a front four depleted by injuries. The performance had one assistant coach raving after his unit slowed Mike Leach’s Air Raid Offense during the daily team session. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1211302.html 2047 ADAM LEWIS http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1211302.html Tue, 14 Aug 2012 03:49:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN -- If the early going of fall camp is any indication, the Cougs have some very good, very young players in place for down the road. Some even look to be ready to help contribute now, while others will be able to help most over the long haul by redshirting. In the last of a three-part series 10 days into fall camp, Cougfan.com takes a look at the future, both near and far. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1211212.html 2047 JOE DOYLE http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1211212.html Mon, 13 Aug 2012 23:08:00 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 PULLMAN -- The theme of the day for the Cougs: Tenacity. A couple good “fights” in the trenches got the team riled up for most of Monday afternoon. There’s some clarity from Mike Leach on Rickey Galvin’s position, and Marquess Wilson shined. How about the kicking and punting game, and who is emerging in the return game and at the gunner spots? That and much more in today’s practice report.. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1209098.html 2047 JOE DOYLE http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1209098.html Tue, 07 Aug 2012 02:45:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate CF.C SUBSCRIBERS, despite the voluminous amount of video and info provided by Annabel Stephan during WSU's early fall camp practices for CF.C, still had more questions. They ask, and she answers… http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1209032.html 2047 the staff of Cougfan.com http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1209032.html Mon, 06 Aug 2012 23:18:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN – Position switches aren’t all that uncommon in the early stages of fall camp and an offense-to-defense switch is in the offing four days into workouts at Washington State. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1208928.html 2047 JOE DOYLE http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1208928.html Mon, 06 Aug 2012 18:26:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN -- The Cougars welcomed a new face, and a much-hyped freshman showed why he was the highest-rated recruit from WSU’s 2012 class on Friday. Meanwhile, the offense and defense both took strides while racking up big plays during a grueling three-hour practice. In the end, coach Mike Leach sounded impressed. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1208209.html 2047 ADAM LEWIS http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1208209.html Sat, 04 Aug 2012 03:58:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate WITH THE START of fall camp less than 24 hours away for Washington State, one thing stands out to Mike Leach. Lack of depth. The head man also touched base on a variety of other topics, including the offseason dismissals that have affected the Cougars’ depth. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1207479.html 2047 BRAULIO PEREZ http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1207479.html Wed, 01 Aug 2012 22:17:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate WHEN FALL CAMP gets underway tomorrow at WSU, evidence of a crimson pipeline to a rising California prep football factory will be seen out on the field. And a report in the last 24 hours says that pipeline is now set to double in size. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1207320.html 2047 the staff of Cougfan.com http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1207320.html Wed, 01 Aug 2012 14:05:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate California lost out on many highly-regarded recruits, but quarterback Zach Kline and receiver Bryce Treggs will determine the success of the Class of 2012. http://california.scout.com/2/1155065.html 2047 Dan Greenspan http://california.scout.com/2/1155065.html Thu, 02 Feb 2012 07:08:00 GMT 1 166 Cal california Gardena (Calif.)
