by TIM BOOTH AP Sports WriterFILE - Eastern Washington coach David Riley watches his team during the first half of an NCAA college basketball game against Texas Tech, Dec. 22, 2021, in Lubbock, Texas. Washington State hired Riley as its basketball coach on Tuesday, April 2, 2024, nabbing the two-time Big Sky Conference coach of the year at a time of uncertainty for the Cougars.
Riley will move down the Palouse highway after three successful seasons as the coach at Eastern Washington. He'll take over a Washington State program coming off its first NCAA Tournament appearance in 16 years, but with significant questions after the collapse of the Pac-12 Conference. The Cougars will play the next two years as affiliate members of the West Coast Conference, but have already seen key players enter the transfer portal.
“Throughout the process, Dave’s coaching acumen was evident as was his ability to create a winning culture. In just three seasons, he has emphasized player development through a fast-paced, high-powered offense that allows his student-athletes to play free and confidently," Washington State interim athletic director Anne McCoy said.
