Jahad Woods continues his impact in Pullman, joins Washington State coaching staff

Good afternoon, Coug fans!

It was reported today that one of our favorite former Washington State players, Jahad Woods, would be heading back home! Woods joins the WSU coaching staff as a Defensive High School Scout.

Essentially, what he’ll be responsible for is finding talent, looking specifically for things like power, arm length, flexibility, technique, quickness off the ball, and diagnostic skills for game adjustment. Woods was a needle in a haystack in terms of not being heavily recruited himself, so we trust he’ll have a good eye for similar (potentially overlooked) talent elsewhere.
