Re: UW Block Grant Budget Amendment

In recent news: -Black 14 end their academic relationship with Wyoming. Formally co-hosted a summer institute with the University. -Wyoming eliminates DEI office. I hate to see UW's reputation take another hit like this. I don’t believe it’s going to play out well at all. Probably be viewed as the ...

I see he hasn’t landed anywhere, along with Chauncey Carter, or Garrett McGriff.
One of these is not like the others.

Re: Linder leaving

I hope 7220 or other media source does a public records request. I believe Linder owes us at least $1 million for leaving early. But I suspect Wyoming let him leave free of any buyout. TT should pony up this money in his contract. I can’t imagine they would pony up that kind of buyout for an assist...

Re: 24-25 Roster

I believe everyone on the team now has 30 days to transfer if they choose. But really just starting fresh might be the best even if next season turns into single digit wins.

Re: Linder leaving

We are being saved!!! Good riddance. This does not surprise me at all. Sitting behind him all season, it was so obvious he was checked out and just cashing a paycheck. Now - we will probably face a new wave of transfers but in 2 years we can turn this around. I agree, we need to be on the phone with...

Re: 24-25 Roster

I agree on where we stand on paper. Other than SJSU, we look to have the worst MWC roster. Maybe even worse than SJSU. With a roster like that, you need a lot of buy-in and time together to hope to have success…I’m close to 100% doubtful Linder can achieve that given his attitude and demeanor and h...

Re: 24-25 Roster

We will add 2 more players. There are still a few Big West backup players looking for a new home. 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 a...

Re: Arizona Bowl

I wonder if the bowl system even survives and is functioning in 5 years. Honestly, at this point, a g5 playoff with home games for highest ranked and a destination championship might be a better alternative to our current bowl tie-ins. If bowl system does remain, AZ is one of the better bowls for t...

Re: Arizona Bowl

I don’t know how Wyoming would end up in a bowl in Vegas. That’s pretty unlikely for next year. Current Bowl Ties: LA Bowl - No tie in since PAC has dissolved. Probably AAC or WSU/OSU being discussed. Arizona Bowl - v MAC Potato Bowl - v MAC Hawaii Bowl - v CUSA New Mexico Bowl - v CUSA Alternative...

Re: Arizona Bowl

My wife and enjoyed going to Arizona for last year for the game. Saw some longtime Cowboy fans who I generally do not see at the games in Laramie ( I suspect because they sit on the west side of the War) and the final score turned out right so it was really fun. Still I hope that if Wyoming gets a ...

The one in Boise? Yes.

The Arizona Bowl? No. Love the new sponsor, and, out of all of the current MWC bowl ties, this is probably the best.

Re: Football Transfer Portal

He made big money ($500K plus) at Texas and is making some money at Nebraska. Hard to criticize his decision that we probably all would have made at the time. Do you think he keeps all $500K since he transferred? Also, college kids are famously known for thinking about long term ramifications over ...
