Alex Grinch rumors starting to swirl

Now that the head coaching carousel has slowed considerably — last we checked, Mike Leach is still the coach of the Washington State Cougars — it’s time for the assistants to take their turns.

After a season in which the WSU defense surged ahead of the offense in terms of on-field performance, defensive coordinator Alex Grinch is starting to be mentioned in connection with some higher profile jobs.

CougCenter sources (yes, sometimes we have those) said that Grinch interviewed this week with the Alabama Crimson Tide, Texas A&M Aggies and Florida Gators.
