WSU shuffles defensive depth chart following coordinator Tracy Claeys’ surprise resignation

PULLMAN – Coach Mike Leach hinted Monday that Washington State would consider personnel changes for its much-maligned defense in the wake of Tracy Claeys’ unexpected resignation as defensive coordinator.

“We’re looking at some of that,” Leach said. “Nothing definite yet.”

That was at 3 p.m. The Cougars apparently found the clarity they needed by Monday night, when they released their Week 6 depth chart, listing the starters and backups for Saturday’s Pac-12 game at Arizona State.

Well, six days after Tracy Claeys' resignation, some major changes to #WSU's defensive depth chart:

Former SS Daniel Isom is returning to his natural CB position and N Skyler Thomas will move to SS.
