Lots of Cougar news today.
Football coach Bill Doba was fired. Just two days after winning the Apple Cup he is let go. The Mike-Price-back-to-Washington-State stories are already out, including this one by the El Paso Times. We have been on the Bring Back Mike Price Bandwagon for a long time. We like Doba as a guy, so much so that we feel for him today, but football wise this was the right move. The best part of Price coming back would be he would most likely keep some of the staff. We like that fact that the Cougars are coached by Cougars. Levenseller, Yarno, Broussard, Rypien; those guys care about Washington State.
In other WSU news, the basketball team moved up to #6 in the nation. This is the new highest ranking for the Cougars. They won the inaugural Hispanic College Fund Tournament this past weekend in Spokane. They play at Baylor on Friday then travel to the Kennel for a big game with Gonzaga on December 5th. Unfortunetly, both of those games are televised on ESPNU, a channel that we don't get.
