Washington State just beat No. 8-ranked Arizona, 73-70.
The Cougars lost Mohamed Gueye, D.J. Rodman, TJ Bamba and Justin Powell from last year’s team. They are currently 12-5 overall. Kyle Smith is the coach.
Coaching matters, apparently.
- Quarterback Cam Ward, who had declared for the NFL Draft, has flipped his decision and is going to Miami. What happens to Reese Poffenbarger, who was supposed to be the Canes’ starter after transferring from Albany. Poffenbarger!
- Washington is using the Parker Executive Search firm to hire a new football coach. Remember, Jen Cohen told Washington president Ana Marie Cauce to use Parker to hire a new athletic director.
InsideUSC with Scott Wolf 
Scooter,
I am watching the SC vs Colorado game. SC is looking better than they did against Washington St. They team is playing better and they are rebounding and playing defense better. They are ahead. I guess Enfield coached them.

I was in Vegas, had a nickel on USC +11. Whole game is a pretty easy cover until it isn’t. Down by 13 with 2 seconds left, USC hits a 3 to lose by 10. Nice to be on right side of a bad beat 😉

Pittsburgh (Steelers) called Buffalo “soft” for postponing the game set for today although the Bills’ field resembled an Antarctica white-out
Speaking of which, Miami Dolphins went from plus 90-degrees at home practices to about -10 degrees in Kansas City, a 100-degree difference, and guess who won?

I’m still waiting for USC to announce Taylor Mays as an on-field coach. Dont know what he did in those 6 weeks, but damn, got to keep him before someone steals him.
I’m pretty sure Taylor wants to be at USC for a long time.
USC is going to have plenty of talent in the secondary this year, they might be losing some players after Spring practice, because the roster is just too packed with talent.
After watching Michigan with all that pre-snap motion and use of tight ends, I wonder if other teams will be copying more of that next year. Will Riley have enough talent in the tight end room to make it a bigger part of the offense?

Two years later, in 2008, the NCAA implemented a new rule, saying that “no player shall initiate contact and target an opponent with the crown (top) of his helmet. When in question, it is a foul.” It added that no player shall initiate contact and target a defenseless opponent above the shoulders.

Caleb’s deadline is fast approaching.
Like everyone else, I expect an announcement to enter NFL later today.
One site claims that Caleb might go supplemental route but that draft is not until July, which is after OTA’s and puts him behind the steep learning curve.
Haven’t heard if he has hired agent euther.
