Pittsburgh in 1915, Warner recommended Lone Star Dietz for the head coaching job at Washington State in Pullman, Wash. Thus began the Carlisle–Washington State Connection. Dietz installed the Carlisle System and used it to turn a previously los- ing team into a winner. His 1915 team went undefeated, capping the season with a 14-0 victory over Brown in the just revived Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif. The win put the Rose Bowl on the map (replacing a decade of chariot races as the post-parade feature) and established bowl games as a New Year’s Day football tradition. Dietz went on to a long and successful career, now honored by his induction into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2012. When football restarted after the end of


World War I, Washington State officials want- ed to continue with the Carlisle System. Welch was hired even before he returned home from service as a U.S. Army officer in France. He had some successful years but left because the school wanted a year-round coach. Next was Exendine, who was well steeped in War- ner’s method and had had success in his nine years at Georgetown University. While neither Welch nor Exendine had Dietz’s success at Washington State, they did credible jobs and later coached at other schools. The Carlisle- Washington State Connection lasted from Dietz’s arrival 1915 to 1925, Exendine’s last year in Pullman.
