Waiver in hand, Bulldogs’ McCoy could develop into key piece this season

Enter Ricky McCoy, the former Roosevelt High Rough Rider, former Washington Husky. McCoy transferred back home to Fresno State earlier this year and now that he has a waiver from the NCAA allowing him to play this season rather than sit out he could become a big piece in two puzzles for the Bulldogs.

“To have him available to be in the rotation is a positive for us, for sure,” coach Jeff Tedford said. “He has played at a high level for a long time. He has good fundamentals and mechanics and knowledge.

“Any time you’ve gone through what I know what they go through at Washington, the coaching he’s had and the level of competition he has had in practice and things like that, he comes here with a little more experience where he’s not big-eyed about what’s going on.
