WSU > UW

Congratulations to Dezmon Patmon! Drafted with the 33rd pick in the 6th round (212 overall) to the Indianapolis Colts! Go Cougs!

Important PSA! Go Cougs!

Hello everyone!

I just wanted to give everyone an update on my Ulman 4K for Cancer Fundraiser! Thank you to all of you Cougs who have supported me on this journey! I am now currently at a fundraising total of $3,105 towards the required $4,500 goal! $720 of that total came from you Cougs, with most people being complete strangers who I’ve never met! The kindness and generosity of the WSU community is humbling and inspirational!

I was shipping out WSU > UW wristbands for every $10 increment donated. I started with 40 wristbands and now I’m down to having 8 left. If you would like one of the few remaining wristbands, please donate a minimum of $10 to my fundraiser!

At $1,000 worth of WSU community donations, I will be giving away a $100 Cougar Country Drive In (pullman, washington) gift card to anyone who donated a minimum of $5 to my fundraiser!

I appreciate each and every one of you! If you would like to donate to my fundraiser which provides support for young adults during their battle with cancer, you can donate at the link below. Leave a “Go Cougs!” in the comment section of your donation so I know it came from the WSU community! Go Cougs!

Aron Baynes is now a big man who can shoot! Go Cougs!

Aron Baynes was cookin' from deep ♨️

What's your take on football games being scheduled so far in advance? I personally feel like games shouldn't be scheduled more than 3 or 4 years away. However, that 2023 match up with Wisconsin in Pullman already has me drooling... Go Cougs!

WSU adds Fresno State home-and-home, Boise State series pushed back A ton of shuffling around for games happening a lot of years from now!

WSU Men's Basketball defeats UW 79-67! Go Cougs!

Cougs vs Huskies happening right now in Pullman and being broadcast on ESPNU! This is my first WSU basketball game in person since probably 2014! Go Cougs!

Klay Thompson is a special part of my childhood memories. I get super nostalgic just thinking about the days of Cougar basketball from 2006-2011. I was astounded at first by guys like Kyle Weaver, Derrick Low, and Robbie Cowgill. Then, the next few years by the likes of Aron Baynes, Taylor Rodchestie, Abe Lodwick, Marcus Capers, Reggie Moore, DeAngelo Casto, and Brock Motum. All of these guys were my boys, players I looked up to as a kid and teenager! But none of them compare to the man, the myth, the legend that is Klay Thompson.

I own exactly one NBA jersey. Can you guess whose it is? I think you can. There was no better feeling as a kid than heading out to Beasley on a Saturday night with the family, taking in the sights and sounds of the uninhibited student section, while Klay pulls up from 5 feet behind the 3 point line to nail the smoothest jumper I’ve ever seen.

Congratulations on having your number retired and raised to the rafters, Klay! You deserve it!

Now that the mushy expression of genuine emotion is out of the way, I have a challenge to issue! Klay Thompson, I challenge you to a game of one-on-one in the name of charity! This summer, my 4K for Cancer relay will finish in San Francisco. Even though I will have just finished running hundreds of miles over the span of 7 weeks, I think my legs will still be fresh enough to take you on!

Obviously, I don’t think Klay Thompson will see this. Well, not without your help! I need to get in contact with Klay Thompson and his people. If anyone knows how I can go about doing this, please send me a message to the inbox of this page! Thank you everyone and Go Cougs!

P.S. – I am still fundraising for my 4k for Cancer journey! If you feel like making a donation to help support young adults battling cancer, then please donate at this link: https://give.ulmanfoundation.org/4k-2020/BenWilson

Wow, you guys have blown me away with your generosity! In one day, Coug fans have donated $665 towards my fundraiser for the Ulman 4K for Cancer! That means that we surpassed two fundraising goals!

First, the $100 goal in which I will be making a tribute post to Klay Thompson while simultaneously challenging him to a game of one-on-one, which would be played when I finish the relay in San Francisco! Klay tribute post will be coming tomorrow!

Second, the $500 goal for bringing this page back from the abyss! I promise to be more active here and post at minimum once a week. I've missed all you crazy people!

Next up is the $1000 goal where I will be randomly giving away a $100 dollar Cougar Country Drive In (pullman, washington) gift card to anyone who donates $5 or more to my fundraiser!

Thank you all for your continued support! Cougs supporting Cougs is something that is a truly special phenomenon!
