WSU athletic director Anne McCoy announced a $4.5 million salary pool for the football assistant coaches in 2025, exceeding last year's compensation by $800,000. This strategic move positions WSU to potentially have the largest coaching salary pool in the revamped Pac-12, crucial for a challenging financial environment in Pullman. Despite initial concerns over coach Jimmy Rogers' competitive salary, McCoy's comments indicate a commitment to sustaining a strong football program by investing in coaching staff.
With the College Football Playoff quarterfinals airing over the weekend, TV ratings were notably high despite some mismatched matchups and inconvenient kickoff times. The Rose Bowl attracted 21.1 million viewers, a decline from last year's 27.6 million but still reflective of the game's significance in the playoff framework. The impressive viewership underscores the continued interest in college football, as teams vie for positions to compete in national championships.
