Washington State cornerback Pat Porter has left the team, according to Cougars head coach Mike Leach. 

Porter's departure isn't entirely unexpected, says Jacob Thorpe of The Spokesman-Review:

"The cornerback, who grew up in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, was firmly a Mike Breske recruit. Porter once told me that he decided to play for Washington State in large part because he was so impressed that Breske braved a freak snow storm to visit him in his home, and his relationship with the former defensive coordinator obviously played a big role in getting Porter to choose WSU over offers from Cincinnati, Minnesota, Miami and other schools."

Porter was among the most impressive members of the Cougars' team as a freshman, but had struggled adapting to the new coaching staff.
