The Washington State Cougars will secure the first portion of their 2021 recruiting class today as the early signing period opens for prospective players to send in their national letters of intent — a commitment that binds the player and the school together for at least the next year.
The day figured to be light on unexpected news, but WSU has usually been good for signing at least one player that flew under everyone’s radar, and that proved to be true once again today — the Cougars picked up a signing from Florida linebacker Gavin Barthiel early in the day.
