After two disastrous games for the Washington State Cougars defense, the shake up to get things turned around begins at the top. Tracy Claeys resigned his position as defensive coordinator of the Cougs on Friday, first reported by Theo Lawson of the Spokesman Review and confirmed by the school minutes later.
Linebacker coach Roc Bellantoni has been named the interim defensive coordinator and cornerbacks coach Darcel McBath the co-defensive coordinator while WSU looks for a full time replacement.
“We appreciate Tracy’s efforts the past year and a half and wish him the best going forward,” said Leach in the media release.
