Kyle Smith took over as head coach for the 2020-21 season, and led the Cougars to their first winning record since 2012. Efe Abogidi and Noah Williams both return. Dishon Jackson was one of the 30 best freshman in the country and returns. That is a lot of talent. Washington State beat Oregon State 59-55 in Pullman. Oregon State won by two in Corvallis, but Abogidi fouled out. And Williams played with four fouls for the final 4:08. And Oregon State went on a 10-0 run after that that all but put the game away. Washington State has a lot of top-end talent and seems to be better coached than in years past. Oregon State has to beat a team like Washington State in depth.

WSU been down for a while in basketball so I was surprised to see their name in the NCAA Tournament projections

Wouldn't be making fun of the cougs not like the beavs have been lighting things up in post season basketball over the past many years (aside from getting hot at the right time 5 months ago).

I thought losing Bonton would mean big trouble, but it seems the addition of the senior transfer Flowers is expected to more than compensate; we'll see. Looks like Jakimovski didn't leave after all as well, which helps. I don't think it's a stretch that they are a tourney team, especially if the Pac-12 does well overall in the non-conference.
