What’s *really* behind football’s nosedive? (Episode 200)
Manage episode 396213369 series 3550433
How on earth did things get this bad?
From ranked No. 13 in the AP poll to the wrong end of a four-game skid that threatens bowl eligibility, things are very bad with WSU’s football team. And when we look around Pullman, things aren’t much better — volleyball has dropped three of four in a fashion that we didn’t even imagine was possible, and soccer has just one win in its last six.
In the last two weeks, the Big Three fall sports have combined for one win — ONE! — in 10 combined games.
It’s the kind of thing that makes you wonder if maybe the problems run deeper than the things that normally plague college teams. Like … maybe it has something to do with the state (or lack thereof) of the Cougs’ conference affiliation going forward?
