After leading the University of the Incarnate Word for four highly successful seasons, Eric Morris is returning to the Palouse to take over as the Offensive Coordinator for the Washington State Cougars. Morris elevated the San Antonio college’s young football program in rapid fashion, including winning its first-ever playoff game. It can’t be understated how quickly Morris improved things at UIW. The program got started in 2009 joining the Division II Lone Star Conference after one year as an independent, then transitioned to FCS in 2013.
Morris took over in 2018 after the Larry Kennan-led Cardinals suffered through a 1-10 2017 campaign.
