The Washington State Cougars host the USC Trojans in Pullman on Saturday afternoon (12:30 pm PT, FOX) at Gesa Field. Both teams are off to disappointing starts to the 2021 campaign, but only one team’s start was enough for a coach to lose his job.
Clay Helton is now the former head coach after being fired this week. Helton was also a former two-time interim USC head coach, and he has been replaced by USC’s latest interim head coach, Donte Williams. This new interim was coaching the secondary and held the title of associate head coach.
