Jeff Varem gives Washington State a rugged, two-way frontcourt edge
In the 2004-05 season, Jeff Varem was a reliable starter for Washington State and produced efficiently as a physical, high-motor guard-forward, averaging about 10.1 points, 6.3 rebounds, and shooting 48.6% from the field; he also showed game-changing impact in wins like his 14-point, 13-rebound performance against Oregon State. His value goes beyond box scores: the tape and reporting point to a tough, assertive rebounder who brings energy, interior toughness, and steady two-way production, making him a strong fit for teams that want grit and versatility rather than flash.[1][2][3][5]
