I've seen the kid throw and am with you. Feel bad for him. I thought he was better. A few almost hoping he'd fail because they don't like me. The staff put him at 4 for a reason. We'll see if the qb gurus are right and we're sitting on the next #1 draft pick. I missed on May at WYO so we'll see if ...

I think there are obvious differences but also realize I'm on an island on this one. Maybe I'm wrong but we have differences in opinion. I think something stinks and everyone else thinks everything is awesome. We've hashed and rehashed so I'll leave it at that Anybody think everything is awesome?.....

While sorry to see Diggs and Davis go but it was time. Davis dropped more than few catchable balls but was a very good blocker for a wideout. His price tag was going to be more than Buffalo could carry this season. Diggs played well and was constant threat but he is getting older and would need to r...

There is no doubt that offering Svoboda out of Snow College was a major gamble. It was a reach, and 98% of the time, those don’t pan out. Hopefully he is an outlier. I’m not sure any tape from HS or JUCO is really relevant to the player Svoboda is today. Our best metric for making any predictions i...

Coach Sawvel sees very different from coach Bohl. Players seem to love him. Hope the culture of hard work and discipline doesn't erode over time. That’s actually my worry too. Talking with him, he almost seems too nice and down to Earth. The days of tyrant coach have been numbered for sometime, eve...

Bohl started Peasley because Peasley had more experience and came to Wyoming when Bohl desperately needed a quarterback. Peasley played despite being injured and was leader so Bohl stayed with him.

I view NIL as opening up a very real possibility of players who are playing in a school's uniform but actually employed by a different entity or person. My prediction is things will get a lot messier for several years before anyone really figures out what needs to be done.

More like why?

Passenger rail in the west died in the 1970's for a reason. And nothing has really changed. It's why Amtrak only exists with massive government subsidy. - Cars are cheaper and faster - Planes are about the same price and much faster - The rail lines are built for freight and suck to travel on over ...

Not on the railroad , just highways and roads. .

I love the idea of the coach lifting together with the players. It builds team unity and and an understanding that the work is expected from everyone.

Most likely it was killed with the passage of the open container law which did away with the party aspect of the trip.

Interesting scenario. At one point, I think some of the highest paid individual athletes in terms of NIL were actually female. Gymnasts I think. But I suspect most of this money came from outside collectives. Correct that a gymnast from LSU was a high earner. But the aggregate of funds is nowhere c...

That was the Treagle Train, sponsored for one game a year by the Cheyenne Tribune and Eagle newspapers. Before my time being old enough to join that rolling party. I guess there were guys too drunk by the time they got to Laramie to make it to the game. With newspaper economies being what they are ...

Some of the times I drove I -80 in bad weather, I wished that could have been an option sober or not. .

Crum weighed in at 315 and then ran the 2nd fastest 40 of all offensive linemen at 4.94. He is going to be skyrocketing up draft boards. More likely his performance during the season and at the Hula Bowl practices will decided whether he gets drafted. The combine may have gotten him an endorsement ...

I would be shocked if this happens anytime in the near future. Spending money on infrastructure is no longer something voters in this country put any value on. Politicians know this and steer clear of infrastructure plans, especially long-term ones, in their campaigns. Instead, they focus on the th...

The UWAA wants to make Homecoming the last game in Sept. So it will either be AFA or SDSU. I've got a big problem with this. Homecoming has ALWAYS been in mid October. The day I was born the doc was pissed my mom went into labor because he had tickets for the game. Didn't feel right last year when ...

Also it would be nice to get them the week before or after their games with Army or Navy.

Gentlemen and ladies, can we get back to discussing sports?
