The buzz is building around what new head coach Mike Leach will bring to the Palouse and the kind of offense Washington State will possess going forward. On Monday, they added another offensive piece to the puzzle, receiving a verbal commitment from wide receiver River Cracraft (Rancho Santa Margarita, Calif./Santa Margarita).
