The second-team All-Pacific-10 Conference QB in 2007 was the 223rd pick overall and the lone Cougar to be selected. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/750610.html 2047 the Staff of Cougfan.com http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/750610.html Mon, 28 Apr 2008 02:18:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate THINGS TEND TO GET QUIET in the days before the NFL draft as teams hunker down in war room meetings, but Cougar QB Alex Brink is still hearing from a number squads as the big weekend approaches. So are WR Michael Bumpus, OL Bobby Byrd and TE Jed Collins. Still, no matter what the projections are, only one thing is certain. "It's unpredictable," says safety Husain Abdullah. "No one really knows." http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/748694.html 2047 BARRY BOLTON http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/748694.html Tue, 22 Apr 2008 20:31:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN -– The sun was shining in Pullman on Thursday, but that didn’t stop close to 100 spectators from heading to WSU’s indoor practice facility to watch NFL scouts put outgoing Cougar players through their paces. Defensive end Lance Broadus likely opened the most eyes with his speed and Charles Dillon, with dad watching, drew cheers for a spectacular catch. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/735300.html 2047 JAMES SPICKELMIRE http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/735300.html Fri, 07 Mar 2008 04:09:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate HUSAIN ABDULLAH is aiming to better his 40 time from the NFL combine. Alex Brink is looking forward to having a full throwing session to show off his skills. And a host of other Cougars who didn't get a combine invite are hoping to make a splash in front of NFL scouts today at Pro Day in Pullman. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/734991.html 2047 J.V. HOLLAND http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/734991.html Thu, 06 Mar 2008 12:20:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN -- With the snow continuing to fall in Pullman, Washington State took it indoors again on Tuesday. Meanwhile, Gibson takes it light, lots of facts and figures, a Husky player provides some bulletin board material and Cougar players talk about all the speculation surrounding their head coach. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/703830.html 2047 HOWIE STALWICK http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/703830.html Tue, 20 Nov 2007 22:07:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate THERE'S AN X-FACTOR in every upset but usually the X doesn't come in as a matter of literal fact. Note the X here. Stands for RoXas. Andrew Roxas. The 18-year-old Roxas passed from an unknown to a staple in his first 60 minutes of A-grade performance. The question going in was how could Roxas possibly fill in for the sidelined Kenny Alfred? http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/695673.html 2047 DAN WEAVER http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/695673.html Mon, 29 Oct 2007 09:18:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN -- When WSU passed Saturday on its first six offensive possessions -- and nearly a seventh were Alex Brink not was flushed from the pocket and forced to run -- it appeared the new wrinkles Bill Doba foretold amounted simply to scrapping the rushing game. It was all a ploy. By day's end WSU had piled up more ground yards on UCLA than they did against Oregon, ASU, Arizona and USC combined. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/695407.html 2047 KEVIN DUDLEY http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/695407.html Sun, 28 Oct 2007 04:58:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN -– Say this about Washington State offensive lineman Bobby Byrd: He’s flexible. Give him lemons, he’ll make lemonade. Give him snow, he’ll flap out an angel. An earthquake? He’s jumping on a skateboard. For the third time in the last calendar year, the 6-7, 308-pound senior is changing positions. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/692753.html 2047 J.V. HOLLAND http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/692753.html Sat, 20 Oct 2007 16:52:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate WASHINGTON STATE AND Arizona, as well as most media types, are billing Saturday night’s showdown in Tucson as a “must win,” which begs the question: Why? http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/684153.html 2047 HOWIE STALWICK http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/684153.html Thu, 27 Sep 2007 14:13:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate ON IT'S EAR. That's where Washington State has turned the conventional wisdom regarding offensive line youth development. While most of the focus deservedly is on the early season success of two new starters, don't discount the emergence of the true freshmen. Meanwhile, Alex Brink after a record setting performance Saturday, picked up where he left off in Tuesday's practice session. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/678724.html 2047 KEVIN DUDLEY http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/678724.html Wed, 12 Sep 2007 06:06:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN -- George Yarno, the offensive line coach of the Washington State Cougars, watches over his players like a proud papa. An incredibly loud, angry, profane proud papa at times, but a proud papa nonetheless. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/678434.html 2047 HOWIE STALWICK http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/678434.html Tue, 11 Sep 2007 16:37:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN -- A position tweak on D, expected following Bill Doba's Monday presser, was evident Tuesday on the practice field as the Cougs directed all their attention towards San Diego State and Saturday's tilt at Qwest Field. Some welcome returns to full contact were seen, including an expected key contributor who buckled the chinstrap and got some turns with the 1s, plus a long-missed starter. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/675928.html 2047 KEVIN DUDLEY http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/675928.html Wed, 05 Sep 2007 03:59:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate FOR THE DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR and head man of the Cougs, Tuesday and Wednesday will be busy days this practice week. Bill Doba said Monday the staff will take a look at making some changes up front on the defensive line -- maybe. He also opined, in a wide ranging discussion, on the offensive line, running game, all things defense, special teams, injuries plus a whole lot more. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/675308.html 2047 BARRY BOLTON http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/675308.html Mon, 03 Sep 2007 19:09:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN—Many football fans pay no attention to offensive linemen. Worse, the remaining few a) think they know more than they do or b) need to study game tape before drawing conclusions. Usually, that is. Friday morning, for the second straight day, anyone with decent eyesight and the knowledge that a football has pointed ends could readily see the Cougar o-line overwhelmed by the D once again. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/667069.html 2047 HOWIE STALWICK http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/667069.html Fri, 10 Aug 2007 17:37:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN -- The sights and sounds Sunday on the Palouse can mean only one thing -- Cougar Football is back! The Washington State 2007 preseason kicked off with the first of 28 scheduled practice sessions and the action out on Rogers Field was fast, loud and furious. CF.C presents an exclusive crimson and gray fall camp pictorial in glorious, living Technicolor. And a bit old school black and white. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/665282.html 2047 KODY WHITEAKER http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/665282.html Mon, 06 Aug 2007 21:59:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN -- Cougar Nation! I know Mike Graise has been keeping you up to date on the defense and the progress we've been making throughout coach Rob Oviatt’s summer conditioning. I'm here to add what I’ve seen the last six weeks in Pullman, and from an offensive perspective. This summer, especially, I’ve noticed an attitude change in our team as a whole -- my teammates are simply hungry to win. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/658405.html 2047 DAN ROWLANDS http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/658405.html Fri, 13 Jul 2007 21:29:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN -- What’s up Cougs?! It’s Mike Graise and I’m here with you all summer long. There are a number of Cougs this offseason who I think you just might want to keep your eye on headed into the season. There's a few weightroom warriors you might want to know about. And then there's the most important subject of all to discuss -- the defensive ends! http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/653945.html 2047 MIKE GRAISE http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/653945.html Sun, 24 Jun 2007 02:05:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate GEORGE YARNO covered all bases Thursday in a lunch-time chat session with CF.C regulars. From returning starters Kenny Alfred and Bobby Byrd to rising stars Micah Hannam and Joe Eppele. From a starting five if the season began today to a trio of improving walk-ons, he covered the territory. Among the other topics were the Lesuma brothers, Grady Maxwell's work ethic, and a whole lot more. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/650025.html 2047 The Staff of Cougfan.com http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/650025.html Fri, 08 Jun 2007 05:50:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN -- The Cougar Defense closed out 15 days of spring on a high note, wide receiver Brandon Gibson continued an exceptional showing and, led by Greg Trent, the linebackers were seemingly everywhere during Washington State's final scrimmage. An exclusive crimson and gray pictorial of the final scrimmage of the spring, presented in living Technicolor. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/636094.html 2047 KODY WHITEAKER http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/636094.html Mon, 16 Apr 2007 18:45:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN—It was wall-to-wall sunshine but even the skies had a hard time on Friday matching the picture perfect performances of QBs Alex Brink and Gary Rogers in the Cougs' first spring scrimmage. There were solid hits and head-turning feats on defense but the offense ruled the day, scoring five touchdowns. Despite the shining stat line, Bill Doba is thankful the 2007 season is still a ways away. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/631372.html 2047 CODY GLAD http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/631372.html Sat, 31 Mar 2007 03:59:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate
