McEndoo Stays with Bobcats

Rob Ash didn’t have to look far to find exactly the offensive line coach he was looking for, tapping Jason McEndoo to remain in the position he’s held the previous four seasons.
The architect of some of the best offensive lines in MSU’s recent history, McEndoo has also handled in-state recruiting chores for the Bobcats over the past four years. Ash said, though, that hiring McEndoo started with his attributes away from the field.
“First and foremost, Jason is an outstanding person,” MSU’s first-year head coach said. “He is the type of person I want to build a coaching staff with. Beyond that, he is proven as an terrific recruiter, and once I sat down and began discussing football with him it became obvious that he’s a very solid coach. We’re fortunate that Jason will remain with the Bobcat program.”
McEndoo has coached two All-Americas and five First Team All-Big Sky choices at MSU, and his 2006 unit allowed the fewest sacks in the league while the Bobcats threw the second-most passes in the league. Under McEndoo’s tutelage, Jeff Bolton won the 2005 Rimington Award as Division I-AA’s top center, a position Bolton had never played in a game before that fall. McEndoo was an All-Pac 10 offensive lineman at Washington State as a senior in 1997, earning Sporting News Honorable Mention All-America honors that fall. He played in NFL Europe and for the Seattle Seahawks (1998-99) and New Orleans Saints (2000), and also caoched in the Washington prep ranks for three seasons before joining the Bobcat staff.
McEndoo joins coordinator Dale Ploessl on the offensive side of Rob Ash’s first Bobcat coaching staff.
