While Washington State is preparing for a bowl game this weekend against Fresno State, head coach Jake Dickert and company have not forgotten about recruiting. Three future Cougs committed to play in the Crimson and Gray on Monday. Nathan Gates out of Huntington Beach, California, Leo Pulalasi from Lakewood, Washington, and Kapena Gushiken from Saddleback College in Southern California all announced their intentions to sign with the Cougs.
Gates, a 6’5” 280-lb offensive tackle, announced early on Monday via twitter. He chose the Cougs over offers from Arizona State, Fresno State, UNLV, and six others.
