The Coach has some ethical problems from when he was at Edmonds CC.
That is old news and totally irrelevant. Coach Marbut has the complete support of the WSU administration, and was given a 3-year contract extension after last season. He has the Cougar program moving in the right direction.quote:Originally posted by Majorkahuna:

Thx for the couple of PMs, I was asking more out of curiousity having grown up a Coug and Zag baseball fan back "in the day" and it just seems like of the 3 Washington D1 schools, (UW, Gonz, WSU)that WSU is gaining momentum, Gonzaga doesn't recruit many Washington kids, and the UW is quiet. So I was mainly curious if my perceptions were out in left field. Especially since OSU has developed such a strong program from seemingly no where, thx again for your insights.
OldCob,
Definitely WSU's baseball program is on the rise. They beat Oklahoma 3 of 4 games this weekend. Coach Marbut and staff are doing a great job.
Gonzaga did have a pattern in the past of recruiting primarily kids from Arizona, but recently have committed/signed some Spokane players in Max Mannix '07, Tyler Olson '08, Jacob Partridge '09, and Billy Moon '09. WSU has gone after Washington talent and has also branched out a bit to go after some non-local guys. Not only are they quite good in identifying talent, they do an excellent job of followup in their recruiting effort.
