Indicative of state of Washington talent, and a lot right here in South Sound.
TNT "NW Nuggets List".....(no future Cougs).
- Thread starter ttowncoug
- Start date
Coaching departures/hires can be tough on recruiting, especially when the new guy isn't announced until late December.
Gotta think with CJR stating it's a priority, WSU will make a strong move in-state beginning with the 2026 class
It's also important to the bottom line. In-state tuition/scholarships are obviously less costly than out of state.
The continued lack of Eastern Washington & North Idaho true D1 & 1-AA talent year-in-year out hurts WSU.
1 GSL lineman (2A West Valley Kid) is getting his school paid for by Montana next year (he’s a project) & no North Idaho kid signed at the 1-AA level or higher.

That difference isn’t what it used to be. The state only funds about 15% of in-state students now
Biggins was on with Ian @KJR today. I’m sure you can listed to a podcast version off the free IHeart radio app.
- Rogers QB is better than the QB who followed Dickert.
- we got a good lineman over BSU and others.
- Rogers hit over 100 high schools in Washington during June and was well received. 2026 is supposed to be a good class for HS talent.
- the overall talent that came from SDSU are generally better than the HS talent that followed Dickert
All I remember from what I heard

Well….here’s my cynical response:
Great, we’ve got a QB who’s never played a down that’s better than another QB who’s never played a down.
Cool. One lineman. We’re saved.
Great, someone greeted him at a bunch of high schools. A really good year in Washington high school football doesn’t even field a starting D1 team.
The talent that came from a small college is better than talent that came from high school. Awesome… but is that really something to be excited about?
None of that makes me want to buy tickets…or even renew Sling.
