Kirby Moore Just Kicked Off Spring Ball: Here's What the Cougars Are Building

Washington State football is officially in spring practice mode, and new head coach Kirby Moore is already getting to work. On March 26, the Cougars opened spring ball, and from all early indications, Moore is setting the tone for what could be a pivotal offseason in Pullman.

Spring Practice Begins Under New Leadership

Moore took the reins as Washington State's head coach, and spring practice is his chance to install his system and evaluate what he's got to work with. The Cougars opened their spring slate on March 26, giving Moore his first real look at the roster in a competitive setting. This is always critical for a new coach, new system, new expectations. How players respond to Moore's message in these early practices sets the foundation for everything that comes next.

Spring ball runs for several weeks and gives Moore time to develop chemistry, work on execution, and figure out who's ready to contribute when fall rolls around. For a program looking to turn things around, these practices matter more than people realize. It's not game tape yet, but it's the first real test of whether Moore's coaching translates to player performance.

The Cougars have plenty to prove this offseason. Spring practice is where foundational work happens, where young players get reps, and where schemes take shape. Moore's got his team locked in and working, and that's exactly where you want to be heading into the summer and toward fall camp.
