beat UC Riverside today 6-5. Ian Hamilton with the 6 out save. Cougs take 3 of 4 in the home series against UCR.



Go Cougs!!!

The cougs are looking at 5'11Marcus Johnson Jr. He plays for Hill CC and is averaging 16.9 pts and 8.2 Assts while shooting 50%,76.6 % Ft and 47.1 % from 3 pt land.

Does it seem like we're late to the party? Most of these guys already have several offers before we get to the table.

Washington State has picked up interest in Norco (Calif.) QB Victor Viramontes, he told me this evening. The 6-foot-1, 205-pound dual-threat quarterback is an exciting talent, who simply makes plays. He's rated three-stars by Rivals and does not yet hold any offers, though Arizona is also taking a close look at him.

He's being recruited by Coach Wilson and was invited to the WSU junior day on March 28, though he's not sure whether he'll be able to make it.

With 12:43 left in the second half the score is 54-36

Jack Jones… Look at this guys list of offers and look who's on top. I'll say it again, "call me impressed". He's more of an ATH, as he plays DB as well. There's a little footage of him throwing, as well but it seems WSU is recruiting him as a WR.

Washington State has offered Glendora (Calif.) quarterback Matt Fink, he announced on Twitter. The 6-foot-3, 185-pounder is rated three-stars by Rivals and the No. 12 pro-style quarterback in the 2016 class. He's a burner, though, and could be on of the top dual-threat quarterbacks in this class, as well.

In addition to Washington State, Fink holds offers from Boise State, Colorado, Colorado State, Nevada, Oregon State and Washington. You have to check out this kids film, which I'll link below. He's built like Connor Halliday but would be one of the fastest guys in the offense.

Bellaire (TX) WR Courtney Lark confirmed to WW on Thursday that Washington State offered today. The 6-foot-1, 163-pound receiver, currently committed to TCU, is rated four-stars by Rivals and ranked the No. 32 receiver prospect in the 2016 class.

Lark, ranked No. 132 in the country, also holds offers from Baylor, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Nebraska, Texas Tech, UNLV and SMU. He remains firmly committed to TCU, though he's another talented receiver prospect to watch.

I just renewed my tickets today. Apparently I got a discount by doing so. My question is...

The website said that tickets after today go up by $30 per ticket. $180 bucks a seat seems like a lot. My purchase broke out like this:

Description Location Qty Price Item Fee Fac Fee Amount

--------------- --------------- --- -------- -------- -------- ----------

2015 FOOTBALL x x xx x-x 2 220.00 0.00 30.00 500.00

Does that mean renewing tomorrow it would have looked like this?

Description Location Qty Price Item Fee Fac Fee Amount

--------------- --------------- --- -------- -------- -------- ----------

2015 FOOTBALL x x xx x-x 2 400.00 0.00 30.00 860.00

That seems awful steep compared to years past. Almost $72 per ticket before CAF donations. I know it was almost 20 years ago but the 98 Rose Bowl was only $75 per ticket.

I guess $72 is on par with other schools so I'm not bitching and want the school to get what they can. Can't remember what I paid last year but I know I wasn't early. I want to say it was closer to $600 for two tickts.

Washington State if the first program to offer San Diego (Calif.) Patrick Henry WR Dezmon Patton, he announced on Twitter. Patmon is listed at 6-foot-3, 192-pounds.

San Marcos (Calif.) Mission Hills CB Troy Warner picked up an offer from Washington State tonight, he announced on Twitter. The 6-foot-2, 185-pound cornerback is rated three-stars by Rivals and also holds offers from Boston College, BYU, Notre Dame and Utah. He's ranked the No. 25 cornerback prospect and No. 48 overall prospect in California for the 2016 class.

A&M's Kyrion Parker, a former 4-star recruit (Scout and Rivals) and a top 100 ESPN player is leaving, as is UT's Vic Wharton. There's some Twitter buzz about the two and where they might go. Parker flipped from LSU to A&M and was considered one of the Aggies' top recruits.

Compton (Calif.) Verbum Dei ATH Davir Hamilton announced on Twitter this morning that he's been offered by Washington State. The 6-foot-3, 200-pound linebacker prospect is rated three-stars by Rivals and also holds offers from SDSU and Utah.

on the P12N after the game tonight! For those looking to see what Ernie is like, what it's like "behind the scenes" etc etc, tonight is going to be a glimpse!

University of Tennessee WR transfer Vic Wharton III is scheduled to take an official visit to Washington State on March 7, a source told WW late Tuesday evening. The two sides are still working on finalizing the visit, but I'm told it's certain to happen.

Wharton, a former four-star wide receiver out of Nashville (Tenn.) Independence, has already visited Cal and UNC. Utah is also in the picture, though there no official visit plans have been set. Wharton signed with Tennessee as a member of the 2014 class, where he was ranked the No. 52 wide receiver in the country and No. 9 overall prospect in Tennessee. He picked the Volunteers over offers from Cincinnati, Ole Miss, Mississippi State, North Carolina, Purdue, Vanderbilt and Wake Forest.

As a true freshman last season, the 6-foot, 190-pound inside receiver played in nine games, making two starts, and caught five passes for 64 yards and a touchdown.

agility runs, slips often while moving laterally. Other linebacker prospects were far more impressive this morning.

his game-winning 3-pointer?

Washington State offered Honolulu (HI) St. Louis WR Drew Kobayashi yesterday, he announced on Twitter. The 6-foot-2, 185-pound receiver is rated three-stars by Rivals and also holds offers from California, Hawaii and Weber State.

Murrieta (Calif.) Vista Murrieta ATH Kyle Williams announced on Twitter that he picked up an offer from Washington State tonight. The 5-foot-11, 180-pound athlete is rated three-stars by Rivals and also holds offers from Arizona State, Boise State, Colorado and Washington.

Rancho Cucamonga (Calif.) Los Osos OL Cohl Cabral picked up an offer from Washington State tonight, he announced on Twitter. The 6-foot-5, 250-pound offensive tackle prospect also holds offers from Kansas and Arizona State.

According to Rivals analyst Adam Gorney, Gardena (Calif.) Serra ATH Khalil Tate picked up an offer from Washington State tonight. The 6-foot-2, 200-pounder is rated three-stars by Rivals and is ranked the No. 35 athlete in the 2016 class.

In addition to Washington State, Tate holds offers from Arizona, California, Florida State, Kansas, Oregon State, USC, UCLA, Utah and several others. He's a quarterback for Serra, and his heart is set on that at the next level, but most schools are recruiting him as an athlete.

made several teams take notice. But I would have sworn he would have been lucky to make it by round 4.

I know the NFL isn't about college production, but it seems like once a kid posts some good numbers in the combine it becomes the rage. After Locker out ran Buchanon in 2010 and seeing how he struggled at times in coverage I couldn't see how he would be picked before round three, yet his 40 time really opened eyes. Maybe same thing for Cooper and his decision to leave wasn't dumb after all.

Elk Grove (Calif.) Franklin ATH Lamar Jackson, after a MVP performance at the Rivals Camp Series in Las Vegas over the weekend, has received an offer from Washington State, he announced on Twitter today. The 6-foot-3, 205-pound cornerback is ranked the No. 68 prospect in California and also holds offers from Boise State, California, Colorado, UCLA and Utah.

"[Jackson] was outstanding at cornerback, earning the defensive back MVP award for his work on the perimeter," Rivals analyst Adam Gorney said of Jackson. "Jackson is long and rangy, and proved to be a nuisance for any quarterback that tested him downfield. Receivers had a difficult time gaining separation from the unheralded athlete throughout the one-on-one session."

Bend (Ore.) tight end Cam McCormick picked up an offer from Washington State today, according to Rivals analyst Blair Angulo. The 6-foot-5, 225-pound athlete is rated three-stars by Rivals and also holds offers from Arizona, Arizona State, Boise State, Oregon and Washington.

According to his coach, Temecula (Calif.) Great Oak OL Bryson Cain has picked up an offer from Washington State. The 6-foot-5, 265-pound offensive tackle prospect also holds an offer from Kansas.
