WSU releases spring roster and depth chart

From Pullman -- Washington State will hold the first of its 15 spring football practices on Thursday, continuing every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. The Crimson and Gray game will be held at Spokane’s Joe Albi Field on Saturday, April 26 at 1 p.m. and spring practice will conclude on April 29. Tuesday and Thursday practices are at 3 p.m. while Saturday practice times are to be determined. Practices are open to the public.

The Cougars also released their roster and depth chart. Heights and weights appear to have been updated, with many players losing a few pounds, likely due to winter conditioning. We have more on the new roster after the jump.

 

Here are some notes on WSU’s roster changes in the offseason. The depth chart is on page 8 of the document below.

  • Rising sophomore cornerback Daquawn Brown is still on the roster. Brown was charged earlier this month with felon second-degree assault and misdemeanor assault. One of the alleged assaults was against a woman, an apparent violation of one of the team’s three rules that if broken automatically trigger a dismissal.
