Football Dots
- UW got a late add to the 2026 roster, former Troy RB Trey Cooley. Cooley was former 4-star RB out of North Carolina. He started his college career at Louisville. He played in 19 games in the 2 seasons he was there, including 1 game he started as a true freshman. He had 709 yards on 145 carries (4.9 yds/carry) at Louisville. He then transferred to Georgia Tech where he played 2 seasons. He had 300 yards on 30 carries with the Yellow Jackets (4.3 yds/carry). He then transferred to Troy to play his final season, but was injured and missed the entire season.
