Setting the Record Straight
When Paul Wulff was hired as Washington State University's football coach, one Spokane newspaper, and a few broadcast outlets (including our own) proclaimed that it was the first time in 58 years that an alumnus of WSU had been handed that position.
WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!
Mike Price attended Washington State in the 1960's, and spent two seasons on the football team, coached by Bert Clark. Price then transferred to the University of Puget Sound, where he finished up his college career.
This means that the last time a Cougar alumnus was hired as head football coach at WSU was 1989 when Price succeeded Dennis Erickson. That's nearly nineteen years before the hiring of Paul Wulff. So close. Everyone mised it by only four decades.
Normally, I wouldn't make a big deal out of something like this, but what's the use of having a blog if you can't vent a little?
