Transition buckets are a staple of the Ernie Kent offense and WSU's occasional struggles on offense often stem from an inability to finish on the fast break.

On Tuesday Jeff Nusser wrote an article detailing WSU's struggles in the transition game and in today's paper my story explains WSU's fast break methodology and where it is breaking down.

Also in the paper we have a brief story on WSU's three NFL Combine participants. USA Today looks at Connor Halliday's road back from injury to the combine and Seattle Times Seahawks reporter Bob Condotta spoke to the quarterback in Indianapolis and has this video. Blogging The Boys wonders if Halliday would be a good fit in Dallas.

One writer believes that Vince Mayle is the best receiver you don't know about (although most of you probably do know about him by now and if not you might be lost).

In conference basketball news first-place Arizona predictably pasted last-place USC. Also in first place is Utah, which handed Oregon State its first home loss of the season in a low-scoring game.
