WSU Cougars links: Mike Leach says the toughness level has improved

Washington State head football coach Mike Leach was his usual blunt self during an interview with John Clayton Thursday afternoon on 710AM ESPN radio.

“Our team has gone from being pathetically not physical to pretty physical the last two weeks,” Leach said in response to Clayton’s question about how well the Cougars have responded to his tirade about their lack of toughness in the aftermath of the loss to Boise State.

The Cougars are 2-2 going into this weekend’s match up against No. 15 Stanford, and they finally appear to have figured out a way to win games.
