Re: How do you feel about the QB position

I know it’s the same old ridiculous schtick you’re stuck on. But to be clear there’s a zero percent chance of that. A guy who has had basically one year of playing time in college at a G5 isn’t leaving early for the NFL under any circumstance. There’s no need to take such a risk when any QB with NF...

Re: 24-25 Roster

Also - DeWeese updated his Twitter profile to remove Wyoming references and add a trees background. He now describes himself as an alum of Mary Hardin-Baylor and Virginia Commonwealth Universities. He also re-tweeted a Texas Tech post a few days ago.

Re: 24-25 Roster

The athletics site has been regularly updating the Basketball roster page. A few nuggets from it: 1) DeWeese has been removed. Probably safe to say he is gone and has departed his office. 2) Agbim has been strangely added back to the roster with no mention anywhere. Id speculate that he might be ann...

Re: 24-25 Roster

Do you even give out scholarships at this point? I can't imagine the portal or unsigned hs kids are deep with talent. I mean you have to field a team but you also know any scholarship you give out now is likely wasted. Maybe anyone with only 1 year eligibility? Tough spot. I think you look for a fe...

Re: 24-25 Roster

That and I’m also wondering if Linder didn’t line something up at Texas Tech for DeWeese. Linder’s timing can’t be overstated. He f***ed us so hard for next year. Retaining DeWeese probably would have allowed us to field a team next year but I don’t know how we get there now. I suspect we sign a co...

Re: How do you feel about the QB position

He is. But any success he might have is now a double edged sword. The bummer being that if he has a good season with flashes of his elite athleticism, it’s pretty impossible to keep him here another year when millions are being flashed to QBs in the portal. So the potential payoff with these types ...

Re: How do you feel about the QB position

Svoboda was set to attend UW as a preferred walk on out of high school. Then the pandemic hit and he decided to go to Snow College for a year instead. The UW coaching staff had eyes on him long before he was at Snow College. His high school stats in Arizona were not particularly impressive. I think...

Re: 24-25 Roster

We basically will have Green Bay’s staff. I was hoping DeWeese might stick around but that does not look to be the case. I was hoping he would be retained as well - maybe he and Sundance didn't jive when here together. That and I’m also wondering if Linder didn’t line something up at Texas Tech for...

Re: How do you feel about the QB position

We were just lucky that PBJ named him starter. TX saw him in action. He couldn't supplant Ewers but they aren't sold on Manning. Had PBJ not named him starter, he's likely SEC bound..TX, Alabama, or at worst, Ole Miss. Not buying that take. Had any of those made a back channel offer with big NIL he...

Re: How do you feel about the QB position

Despite his impressive total of 28 yards passing in JUCO ball, to be fair Wyoming scouted Svoboda out of high school. The opportunity came up when Williams and Chambers entered the portal leaving Wyoming thin at QB. We were just lucky that PBJ named him starter. TX saw him in action. He couldn't su...

Re: How do you feel about the QB position

Something that might be getting overlooked is how Svboda was recruited. He was like 3rd string on a JUCO team. If he hits, that's some seriously good scouting or just damn lucky. Despite his impressive total of 28 yards passing in JUCO ball, to be fair Wyoming scouted Svoboda out of high school. Th...

Re: 24-25 Roster

What? Without bringing Noah back? Say it isn't so!! Too late to transfer ? Or maybe his NIL deal would have to be repaid if he came to Wyoming? Reynolds signed with TCU a month ago. Because of this and because the normal portal period is closed, he cannot transfer. Just like Wyoming, current Green ...

Did Wicks do enough to prove himself at GB?? Not the best, but not the worst. Idk how I feel Without Noah Reynolds, no he didn't. JMO. He won a coach of the year award for first year coaches. He took the 3rd worst team in the entire county (NET 310 out of 312 in 2022-2023) and turned them into a NE...
