Every year a breakout star emerges in Washington State football fall camp. Typically it’s a player outside of the limelight. Maybe it is a walk-on turning heads and running with the 2s or even the 1s. Maybe it’s a player previously buried on the depth chart. Like clockwork, the hype for the Fall Camp All-Stars rolls in.
And typically like clockwork, the hype train runs out of steam by about Week 2 of the regular season. Now, not every Fall Camp All-Star peaks before the regular season. Sometimes a freshman emerges and goes on to have a great career.
