Peyton Pelluer embarks on a new career

Good morning, Cougar fans everywhere. Aside from the incredible surprise that was Gardner Minshew II, Peyton Pelluer’s unexpected sixth season of eligibility was a principle reason for the special year that the Washington State Cougars gave us in 2018. Despite a very solid college career, Pelluer wasn’t able to catch on with an NFL team, and hung up his cleats. Now it appears that he will have a chance get back onto the field.

According to the Spokesman Review, Mike Leach is bringing Pelluer aboard with the Mississippi State Bulldogs as a volunteer assistant, with the goal of hanging on and assuming the role of graduate assistant in the fall.
