PULLMAN, Wash. (Dec. 2, 2024) – Washington State University head football coach Jake Dickert announced Monday he has relieved defensive coordinator/linebackers coach Jeff Schmedding of his duties.

"I appreciate all the hard work that Jeff has had for our program during his two years here in Pullman," said Dickert. "After evaluating our program, we have not met the standard defensively, and I felt a change was needed for the best interest of the program. I informed Jeff this morning that he will no longer be the defensive coordinator and wish him well in his future.
