Maybe this is Burman's time to step down. We need a transition into a new model. Invest in people, not facilities. How old is he, anyway? He is going to likely hang it up soon anyway...he has been at it since 2006, and previously 6 additional years at Portland state. So 24 years in, time to call it...

Not Buckymac the Ratboy...say it isn't so, lol!

2 words I never need to need to hear, "and again"

Right up there with "at the end of the day" and "deep dive"

That list, sucks. That is the best WYO can do, my how we have fallen. I am extremely concerned... Who would you try to hire? Good question, if it were my job to be AD, I would always have a working list in my pocket every day, of major sports coaches that would fit at Wyoming, and some that were co...

You really want a failed AD making another coaching decision? I don't. Time to turn over the department.

Holy crap. Not a good look to have a head coach take a demotion. The bball program is in shambles I see it as “revenge of Linder” and a big middle finger to the fans, players and University. The way he’s acted, like a child, can’t say as I’m surprised. Agree with this post - f-word the guy. He ran ...

What makes you think he will get that high of quality player? I am thinking he should stick with the NAIA or D3. Bottom line, Wyoming basketball is no longer entertainment, it is depressing and lacks any excitement. Even worse that the Rockies. UW will be lucky to finish in 10th next year... I agre...

Hopefully Linder isn’t done adding through the portal… We will add 2 more players. There are still a few Big West backup players looking for a new home.

LOL! :rofl: I am truly having a tough time swallowing the idea that 40 degrees and some precipitation was enough to cancel a Spring Game at the University of Wyoming. I could understand if the temperatures were in the single digits or forecasts were calling for torrential rain/blizzard conditions. ...

Great point. You should share that with the know-all folks at UW.

Was hoping he would land at Texas, or Texas A&M (or even Houston). TCU? Big meh.

TCU is in the Big 12 which is probably the deepest basketball conference. Most people would say he is making a significant jump from Wyoming to there.

Could be, certainly is as of late.

He’s from San Antonio so the destination makes sense. Wishing him the best.

It was dumb as hell to host it there in the first place, but I didn't think about not having it in the friendly confines of the IPF (if the weather didn't cooperate). Another reason to keep the Spring game at home.

And...Wenzel to TCU. Great.

Confirmed, Pac2 is now a G5 conference beginning in August. They have no leverage now. They and MW just need to merge and let’s move on. Unlimited transfer rule is also approved. That sucks. https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/other/ncaa-officially-authorizes-unlimited-transfer-rule-removes-pac-12-fro...

He will be a great 8th man there! Probably. But he would likely be our best player. Which just goes to show the significant gap we now have in basketball with other MWC members. You are probably right on that assessment. And yes, there is a massive gap between WYO and everyone not named AFA, or Jos...
