I loved Tony Bennett. I was sorry to see him go. But as basketball credentials go, facts are facts: Washington State has just made an upgrade in its head coach. Ken Bone may not be as cute and cuddly as Tony, and his dad may not be as well known, but as basketball coaching credentials go, he's way ahead of Bennett. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/854136.html 2047 J.V. HOLLAND http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/854136.html Tue, 07 Apr 2009 17:23:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate TONY BENNETT SAID today what really matters is the promise over time and commitment. What a crock. Passion, humility, unity, servanthood, thankfulness. Those were the five tenets of Cougar hoops that Tony Bennett consistently espoused. Then in one fell swoop he betrays his own credo, turning his back on his assistants, players and recruits, not to mention fans and administrators. What a hypocrite. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/852314.html 2047 J.V. HOLLAND http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/852314.html Wed, 01 Apr 2009 18:20:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate SO WHAT ARE we supposed to do, rip Tony Bennett for taking the Virginia job or thank him for the job that he did at Washington State? I’m torn. It would be a better column to slice and dice him, and I lean toward that approach because of comments he made last May about his allegiance to the Cougs. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/852275.html 2047 JIM MOORE http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/852275.html Tue, 31 Mar 2009 18:40:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate LESS THAN 24 hours after Tony Bennett decided to leave Washington State for Virginia, one of the school's incoming freshmen is also talking about leaving. Xavier Thames, a potential starting point guard at Washington State next season, will ask to be released from his national letter of intent to WSU, Thames' father said Tuesday. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/852266.html 2047 HOWIE STALWICK http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/852266.html Tue, 31 Mar 2009 16:12:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate TONY BENNETT told Jim Sterk as recently as Sunday afternoon that he was going to stay in Pullman despite Virgina’s lucrative offer. In fact, Bennett went so far as to say he wanted to donate $100,000 back to the basketball program. By Monday afternoon, though, Sterk was tracking down phone numbers for Portland State’s Ken Bone and San Diego’s Bill Grier. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/852174.html 2047 HOWIE STALWICK http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/852174.html Tue, 31 Mar 2009 03:58:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate BASED ON ANECDOTAL evidence, there’s only one group of college basketball fans more bummed out right now than the Cougar faithful. If message board chatter is any indication of the reception Tony Bennett can expect from rank-and-file Virginia Cavaliers fans, then the phrase “Bennett Ball” is going to need some marketing help. Meanwhile, the Cougar Nation mourns. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/852072.html 2047 the staff of Cougfan.com http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/852072.html Tue, 31 Mar 2009 00:24:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate COUGFAN.COM HAS CONFIRMED that Cougar head coach Tony Bennett is leaving Washington State to become the new head coach at Virginia. No other details are available but speculation on who will succeed him in Pullman will no doubt take off like a brushfire with two of his assistants perhaps being logical contenders. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/852038.html 2047 the staff of Cougfan.com http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/852038.html Mon, 30 Mar 2009 22:11:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate CHARLOTTE -- David Chadwick, the 6-9 All-State forward from North Carolina who will be suiting up for WSU next season, has only vague recollections of the NBA ballplayer that used to hang out at the Chadwick house. But the miracle of technology has preserved a glimpse -- a classic one, in fact -- of the toddler David being “rescued” from an Atlantic Ocean surf by the Charlotte Hornets guard. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/846849.html 2047 PAUL LONG http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/846849.html Wed, 18 Mar 2009 19:02:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate Hot News for C Tony Bennett http://washingtonstate.scout.com/a.z?s=137&p=9&c=2&cid=848106&nid=3974308&fhn=1 2047 J.V. Holland http://washingtonstate.scout.com/a.z?s=137&p=9&c=2&cid=848106&nid=3974308&fhn=1 Tue, 17 Mar 2009 22:37:37 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate IF WSU UPSETS Saint Mary's tonight in the first round of the National Invitational Tournament, the box score is likely to show Wazzu winning the turnover battle. And if that’s the case, the roots of the victory can be traced to a dour day in Louisiana three months ago that was followed by an impromptu middle-of-the night practice called to order by one indignant coach. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/848040.html 2047 BARRY BOLTON http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/848040.html Tue, 17 Mar 2009 19:15:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate OK, THE COUGS were more frigid than a Chi O in January. That’s now ancient history. Besides, the historic odds of beating UCLA back-to-back -- in Los Angeles, no less -- just weren’t in the crimson corner. So let’s turn attention to what matters: The NIT. “We would love to go to the NIT,” Taylor Rochestie said Thursday after the Bruins eliminated the Cougs from the Pac-10 tourney. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/847094.html 2047 the staff of Cougfan.com http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/847094.html Fri, 13 Mar 2009 14:15:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate AND NOW COMES the hard part. The Cougs play their second game in as many days and it's against well rested UCLA, in Los Angeles. But before looking too far ahead, oh wouldn't you have loved to have been a fly on the wall in the WSU locker room at halftime of the win over Oregon. Because Tony Bennett was hopping mad. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/846523.html 2047 J.V. HOLLAND http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/846523.html Thu, 12 Mar 2009 07:13:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate WASHINGTON STATE came up short down the stretch at Washington on Saturday, but the game was a victory for the Cougars in another sense. WSU freshmen DeAngelo Casto, Klay Thompson and Marcus Capers had never before played in such a hostile a situation, and the experience will serve them very well down the road, Cougar assistant coach Ben Johnson told Cougfan.com on Monday. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/845679.html 2047 the staff of Cougfan.com http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/845679.html Mon, 09 Mar 2009 19:28:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate TONY BENNETT AND Washington State players talk about the Cougars' second half explosion over Arizona in the 69-53 victory on the hardcourt, plus exclusive low angle video highlights you haven't seen, including the Rochestie-to-Baynes slam that brought the house down. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/842869.html 2047 KEITH CHAPLIN http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/842869.html Fri, 27 Feb 2009 17:57:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate IF EVER THERE was an example of how important it was for the Pac-10 Conference to restart a post-season basketball tournament with a major carrot at stake, which it did in 2002, this year’s Washington State Cougars would appear to fill the bill. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/842107.html 2047 DICK ROCKNE http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/842107.html Wed, 25 Feb 2009 05:43:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate THEY DIDN'T CARE. Washington State didn't care that they're a team who shoots late in the shot clock. They didn't care their inside-outside game has been spotty of late. They didn't care UCLA went to the foul line 18 times in the first half -- and they took but three trips. None of it mattered. They just weren't going to be denied, posting a fast-paced, thrilling 82-81 road win over the Bruins. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/841208.html 2047 BARRY BOLTON http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/841208.html Sat, 21 Feb 2009 23:32:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate WHILE WASHINGTON STATE'S men’s basketball team continues to slide towards a .500 regular season record, freshman Klay Thompson continues to meet – maybe exceed – the lofty expectations Tony Bennett had for his talented freshman. Plus, all you need to know for setting the DVR on upcoming Cougar hoops TV broadcasts. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/840111.html 2047 DICK ROCKNE http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/840111.html Wed, 18 Feb 2009 01:47:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate TONY BENNETT, SAYS Taylor Rochestie, got after the Cougs in the locker room after the loss to Oregon State. This defeat is also going to sting for a while, he says in exclusive video from CF.C. And the senior point guard was just getting warmed up. Highlights, and more of Rochestie's thoughts, plus more commentary from Bennett and Caleb Forrest. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/839415.html 2047 KEITH CHAPLIN http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/839415.html Sun, 15 Feb 2009 06:55:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate WASHINGTON STATE for the most part played suffocating defense and was hitting their shots in the first half. The final 20 minutes was a decidedly different story. Unable to handle an extended zone press by Oregon State, Wazzu went ice cold from the field and looked awkward doing it. The end result was a 54-52 defeat on the home floor in Pullman. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/839370.html 2047 J.V.
