WSU men's basketball has been on the upswing for a couple of weeks, and a relatively narrow loss to Saint Mary's on Saturday supports the idea that the team has made real progress. But now the Cougs face their biggest test of the season: A home game against Gonzaga on Thursday.
What will it take to beat the Bulldogs, who are a top 10 team? They're very good at a lot of things, but not everything. We go over the formula for a WSU upset.
After that, we revisited the work that football is doing this offseason under new coach Kirby Moore. Of note in the last week: Getting a commit from Washington state 4A high school player of the year Lance McGee, who flipped from Oregon State. 
Plus: What we're drinking, and some thoughts on Alex Covill's return to women's hoops!

WSU football is doing WORK with NIL in the portal (Episode 244)

Don't forget to subscribe to the newsletter! Episodes direct to your inbox, plus other written musings from Jeff. podcastvseveryone.com
Out of the depths of despair comes great joy: The Cougars have a new coach, Kirby Moore, and he's doing serious work already. A lot of the roster is staying -- especially on the offensive side -- and he's adding reinforcements already, including a QB from UC-Davis that lit up FCS and a former 4-star burner on the outside from Florida. 
As if the vibes weren't already good enough, another piece of delightful news dropped just before we recorded: Washington is losing its quarterback to the portal. Very sad!
After that, we talked men's basketball, which is also trending upward after seeming to figure some things out offensively. Women's basketball, unfortunately, is not trending that direction.

Breaking down WSU's football coach search (Episode 243)

Don't forget to subscribe to the newsletter! Episodes direct to your inbox, plus other written musings from Jeff. podcastvseveryone.com
Well ... here we are again. Jimmy Rogers is now the coach at Iowa State after just one season at WSU, and the Cougars are again searching for a someone to lead the football program, just 11 months after doing it the last time. We're pretty mad at Rogers for leaving the way he did, and concerned for what it means going forward.
Yet, we press on, discussing some of the names that intrigue us as replacements.
Plus, we talk men's and women's basketball -- both of which remain dreadful -- trying to figure out what the path is for each to improve, before looking at soccer's new coach, who comes to us from Montana.
Plus: what we're drinking!

Time to go bowling! (Episode 242)

The Cougars are headed to a bowl game after beating Oregon State, and we are beyond thrilled -- it represents a significant milestone in Jimmy Rogers first season that certainly wasn't a foregone conclusion. We talk about that accomplishment, plus how the recruits who were added on Wednesday will fit into the long-term picture at WSU.
Meanwhile, the men's and women's basketball teams are struggling. We dig into what's going on there before turning our attention to the change in soccer coach in Pullman. Todd Shulenberger's departure is a bit of a stunner!

Off a big Toledo win, how wary should WSU be vs. OSU? (Episode 241)

Don't forget to subscribe to the newsletter! Episodes direct to your inbox, plus other written musings from Jeff. podcastvseveryone.com
The Cougars paid off their close losses to Mississippi and Virginia with a nice, comfortable win over Toledo at home. The fantastic defense and serviceable offense have us feeling pretty great about what the rese of the season will hold, including when the Cougs travel to Corvallis on Saturday to take on Oregon State.
Plus: what we're drinking and quick previews of men's and women's basketball, which tip off their seasons on Monday.

Ole Miss and The Grove await WSU (Episode 240)

Don't forget to subscribe to the newsletter! Episodes direct to your inbox, plus other written musings from Jeff. podcastvseveryone.com
The bye week has come and gone, and now the WSU Cougars steel themselves for what is the toughest non-Pac-12 test in 20 years: A trip to Oxford, Mississippi, to take on No. 4 Ole Miss. The oddsmakers expect it to get ugly, and honestly? We do too ... although we wouldn't be surprised Lane Kiffin's crew was still basking in the glory of a win over LSU and looking ahead to next week's game against Georgia. Is it enough for the Cougs to make a game out of it?
Plus: Thoughts on OSU's seemingly disastrous NIL partnership, what we're drinking, soccer, volleyball, and cross country.

Feeling good again after easily handling CSU (Episode 239)

Following two weeks of abject embarrassment, the WSU Cougars redeemed themselves to a pretty good degree with a convincing win over the Colorado State Rams. The defense was excellent, giving up just three points; the offense, while inconsistent, did more than enough in the first half for the team to cruise to victory. It was a good feeling!
Plus: What we're drinking, soccer, volleyball, and cross country.

An Apple Cup to forget (Episode 238)

The Washington State Cougars literally could not stop the Washington Huskies for 60 minutes, leading to a blowout. Coming on the heels of an embarrassing loss to North Texas, where does that leave WSU? At least the offense looked pretty ok under new QB Zevi Eckhaus.
Plus: Previewing this week against Colorado State (really need to win it!), what we're drinking, soccer, volleyball, and cross country.

The Washington State Cougars rebounded from a shaky win over Idaho in the opener to leave no doubt in a win over San Diego State to improve to 2-0 on the season, as the defense led the way again. With Jeff out tending to family matters, Emma Weightman ably steps in to cohost with Craig!
Plus: Beer sales are coming to the stadium, a quick preview of North Texas, what we're drinking, soccer, volleyball, and cross country.

A win over Idaho ... but still loads of questions (Episode 236)

Don't forget to subscribe to the newsletter! Episodes direct to your inbox, plus other written musings from Jeff. podcastvseveryone.com
The Washington State Cougars opened up their 2025 football with a win over Idaho ... and that's about the best we can say about it. The offense struggled mightily under new QB Jaxon Potter, but we sure wouldn't blame it on him. Thank goodness for the defense! 
Plus: A quick preview of San Diego State, beer, soccer, volleyball, and cross country.
