Mizell, is going to be another man down. In a wide-ranging, one-on-one interview with Cougfan.com, Mike Leach said that injury-plagued Louis Bland is hanging up his cleats. That's just one of a number of notable developments Leach shared. Here's the first in a two-part summary of what the Cougars' head coach had to say. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1156861.html 2047 HOWIE STALWICK http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1156861.html Wed, 08 Feb 2012 20:25:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate INSIDE LINEBACKER C.J. MIZELL, who started 15 games over his two years in Pullman, has been dismissed from the Washington State football team following a weekend arrest, a source close to the matter tells Cougfan.com and which WSU later officially confirmed. The latest incident was the final straw in a pattern that had seen Mizell run into trouble with two coaching staffs at Washington State. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1156493.html 2047 BARRY BOLTON http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1156493.html Wed, 08 Feb 2012 02:27:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate THEY CAME TOGETHER almost overnight, a mostly unheralded collection of prepsters and a handful of JC players. So how'd they turn out, this hastily gathered group of 25 athletes that Paul Wulff and staff had six weeks to secure after succeeding Bill Doba at the helm of Cougar football? http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1122491.html 2047 JACK EVANS http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1122491.html Wed, 16 Nov 2011 18:50:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate THE USE OF tight ends -- or lack thereof -- is a common discussion on the CF.C message boards. Paul Wulff said Thursday that he hears about it frequently and has a simple explanation as to why the Cougars, who play at 7:30 p.m. Saturday against Oregon State at CenturyLink Field (TV: Root Sports), have not utilized that position in the passing game. Wulff also weighed in on some of the redshirts.. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1119645.html 2047 CHRIS CHANCELLOR http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1119645.html Thu, 20 Oct 2011 21:49:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate THE GROUP OF potential breakout players this season at Washington State is larger than average. But if you could only pick one on offense and defense, who would it be? We asked Paul Wulff that very question… http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1085688.html 2047 BARRY BOLTON http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1085688.html Mon, 11 Jul 2011 17:43:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate LINEBACKER LOUIS BLAND has reportedly been arrested for the second time in three months. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1074463.html 2047 the staff of Cougfan.com http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1074463.html Tue, 24 May 2011 19:25:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate LOUIS BLAND CAN’T catch a break. In his return to the field from knee surgery, the Cougar linebacker this spring wasn’t ready and was shut down during spring ball. The knee hasn’t responded as hoped, and he’ll need to have another surgery soon, WSU Sports Information confirmed to CF.C. The surgery and rehab time will effectively end his 2011 season. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1073660.html 2047 BARRY BOLTON http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1073660.html Fri, 20 May 2011 20:28:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN – There were a few bodies missing Thursday as the Cougs wrapped up the first week of spring, but the bigger story was about a starting defensive tackle who will undergo surgery and miss the remainder of the spring. Meanwhile, the LB corps welcomed back a familiar face, who got in plenty of turns with the 1s. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1055002.html 2047 BRAULIO PEREZ http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1055002.html Fri, 11 Mar 2011 04:17:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate WITH SPRING BALL beginning in just six days, Louis Bland has been suspended from all team activities following an arrest for Assault 2nd Degree, a felony. The Pullman Police Department report states Bland was arrested after officers responded to a report of domestic abuse early Saturday morning. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1052179.html 2047 the staff of Cougfan.com http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1052179.html Tue, 01 Mar 2011 18:32:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate LINEBACKER LOUIS BLAND started nine games as a true freshman in 2008 and at one point, Paul Wulff referred to him as the Cougs’ best player. Unfortunately, he suffered a knee injury that cost him half of the '09 campaign and all of the 2010 season. His return to full health in 2011 is great news for the Cougar defense. And so is the fact Bland will find stiff competition for his starting spot. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1047568.html 2047 CHRIS CHANCELLOR http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/1047568.html Mon, 14 Feb 2011 23:01:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate NEWS AND NOTES aplenty coming out of Pullman, including updates on incoming freshmen Toni Pole, Tracy Clark, Al Lapuaho and more, TE Skylar Stormo is on the mend, some players might start out camp limited in the early going before being turned loose to go full speed, LB Louis Bland might redshirt this year, there's a new defensive graduate assistant and much more. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/989758.html 2047 BARRY BOLTON http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/989758.html Fri, 06 Aug 2010 16:50:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate THE LINEBACKER CORPS produced not one but two pleasant surprises this spring, says co-defensive coordinator Jody Sears, plus the players atop the depth chart all had solid showings. And this was without one of the Cougs' best linebackers, Louis Bland, participating. So what's the latest on Bland, and which 'backer was tabbed by Sears as the biggest spring surprise on the entire defense? http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/968069.html 2047 BARRY BOLTON http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/968069.html Wed, 05 May 2010 20:02:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate THIS SPRING OUT on the Palouse, Paul Wulff is taking the Cougars' leading tackler of last season, Alex Hoffman-Ellis, and moving him to a new spot. Why? Plus, the Cougars' head man talks offensive and defensive lines, and more. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/957003.html 2047 BARRY BOLTON http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/957003.html Thu, 25 Mar 2010 19:52:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate WITH ONLY four players sitting out spring drills due to injury (vs. 24 a year ago), head coach Paul Wulff can do what he wasn't able to the past two spring seasons: Unleash the head crackin'. Simply put, this spring on the Palouse will feature more full-speed contact and collisions because the Cougars are loaded with healthy bodies for the first time in ages. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/956985.html 2047 BARRY BOLTON http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/956985.html Thu, 25 Mar 2010 18:50:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate SPEED AND NEW FACES are among the storylines at linebacker headed into Wazzu's spring football session kicking off this week.

Very different. In recent years, both before after Wulff arrived at WSU, the number of injured Cougs sitting out the spring has been legion. Last year a whopping 24 players were unable to participate due to injury, surgery or both. And this year? http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/945485.html 2047 BARRY BOLTON http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/945485.html Wed, 10 Feb 2010 22:05:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate LOUIS BLAND THIS season has fought through a knee injury suffered back in the spring -- he worked hard enough to get himself ready to play and he was the team's second leading tackler through the first half of the '09 campaign. But a setback in practice last week held him out against Cal this past Saturday, and further tests revealed he is done for the year. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/913488.html 2047 the staff of Cougfan.com http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/913488.html Tue, 27 Oct 2009 15:52:00 GMT 0 137 Washington State washingtonstate PULLMAN -- Linebacker Mike Ledgerwood has been steadily improving this season according to assistant Jody Sears and on Wednesday, he had quite a practice. But another 'backer, Louis Bland, tweaked a knee. Meanwhile, injury questions up front on offense also remain as Saturday's tilt with Cal draws near and Alex Hoffman-Ellis turned in the hit of the day. http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/911795.html 2047 BRAULIO PEREZ http://washingtonstate.scout.com/2/911795.html Thu, 22 Oct 2009 05:51:00 GMT 1 137 Washington State washingtonstate Hot News for LB Louis Bland http://washingtonstate.scout.com/a.z?s=137&p=9&c=2&cid=908110&nid=4214709&fhn=1 2047 J.V.
