The WSU Cougars and the Supplemental NFL Draft

Good morning. With Saturday’s incredibly disappointing news regarding Jalen Thompson’s 2019 eligibility, or lack thereof, word quickly followed that Jalen has made himself eligible for the Supplemental NFL Draft. Once my disappointment and frustration waned a bit, I took a look through the history of the event, and realized that I’d completely forgotten about the most famous iteration of them all.

First, one quick question regarding Thompson - How dumbfounded do the folks in WSU’s training and nutrition program have to be? I guarantee you that they preach constantly to the players about not taking over-the-counter, uncleared suplements, and yet the message doesn’t seem to get through to everyone.
