NCAA football

A good chunk was used to help Washington State and Oregon State fund their athletic operations in the 2025-26 fiscal years, when the schools effectively had zero media rights revenue. 

Many of WSU’s highlights on Saturday belonged to wide receiver Branden Ganashamoorthy, but honors for best practice belonged to the team’s running backs. At least, that’s the way coach Kirby Moore saw it.

MOSCOW, Idaho – Starting next week, fans can catch a preview of Idaho’s football team as it begins preparations for its second season under coach Thomas Ford Jr.

PULLMAN – Brandyn Thompson was barely done with one celebration before he had to jump into another. Washington State’s cornerbacks coach was hyping up safety Jeremiah Bernard, who had just picked off a pass during Thursday’s spring practice opener, prompting a host of teammates to mob him along the sideline.

PULLMAN – From coaching stop to coaching stop, from the West Coast to the Midwest, Kirby Moore has learned what he values most in quarterback play. He’s learned from all manner of head coaches, all of whom have received shoutouts from Washington State’s new head coach in his first few months on the job, all of whom have colored the new Cougar head man’s approach.

PULLMAN – Trent Bray will have some options this spring.

A few months after taking the helm of the program, coach Kirby Moore is set to lead his first WSU practices, starting with Thursday’s opener. The Cougars will practice at 7:45 a.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays and at 11 a.m. on Saturdays.

The media partners are set, and the 2026 schedule is complete. The inaugural Pac-12 (2.0) football season is down to one missing element: kickoff times.

Rather than join an NFL combine preparation program, offensive lineman Nate Azzopardi, defensive lineman Zach Krotzer, linebacker Isiah King and running back Elisha Cummings chose to remain in Moscow – their home for the past five years – and train together as they look ahead to UI's pro day on March 30.

It increasingly appears the Big Ten and SEC are inching toward a football breakaway

The rebuilt Pac-12 is six months from taking the field. That’s typically two eternities in college football, but because the transfer portal closed its gates in the middle of January, only so much change can play out prior to kickoff.

Washington is not planning on hiring a new offensive coordinator to replace Jimmie Dougherty, coach Jedd Fisch said Wednesday. I've run the offense the last six years," Fisch said Wednesday during an interview with On3's "Andy & Ari" podcast, hosted by Andy Staples and Ari Wasserman. "I'll continue to do that. I'll continue to call the plays." Instead of hiring a new coordinator, Fisch said ...

PULLMAN – Spring football isn’t far off at Washington State.

Every year since Zach Bruce first returned to Cheney as a football coach in 2020, he’s added a title or a duty to his responsibilities.

Just a couple of weeks after finalizing its 2026 recruiting class, Eastern Washington’s football program is now looking to fill three vacancies on its coaching staff.

On Feb. 3, 2025, Jimmie Dougherty said being appointed Washington’s new offensive coordinator was more than the fulfillment of a professional dream. It went beyond anything he might’ve imagined.

The Week 1 schedule is a massive letdown compared to the barrage of marquee matchups offered in the opening week of the 2025 season. The list of premier games for the Labor Day weekend includes Baylor-Auburn, Clemson-LSU, Louisville-Mississippi, Notre Dame-Wisconsin and Florida State-SMU. Not exactly a clear-your-calendar lineup.

The Pac-12’s master schedule has received plenty of attention in the days since its release on Wednesday, largely due to the unique flex week at the end of the regular season.

Craig Bray, who held multiple defensive coaching positions at Washington State and Idaho in the ’80s and ’90s and is the father of WSU defensive coordinator Trent Bray, died Tuesday of a heart attack.
