Cougs on The Couch is the home for WSU Cougars fans who want real analysis — not national media hot takes. Connor and Dylan dig into the two-deeps, the recruiting trail, the coaching decisions, and the moments that actually matter to Coug Nation. Football all season long, plus basketball, baseball, and every sport that flies the crimson and gray.
Connor's path to WSU started with his older brother — after visiting Pullman for Dad's Weekend, he chose the four-year university experience over playing community college baseball (he knew it wasn't going to pay the bills). 2016 grad, double major finance & marketing, full-time mortgage lender for 10 years. Launched The Couch GM 4.5 years ago; Cougs on The Couch is the Wazzu heart of that brand. Co-founded WSU Club Baseball with Dylan in fall 2015. Diehard Mariners fan who obsesses over the details of the sport.
Cougs on The Couch exists because of Dylan. When the Pac-12 started collapsing, he saw what Connor was building with The Couch GM and pitched the idea: a dedicated WSU show inside the brand. That conversation became this show. 2017 Murrow grad, based in San Diego, co-founded WSU Club Baseball with Connor in fall 2015. He has written for CougFan.com since 2017 and is a former Washington State beat writer.
