Re: Sheep still suck

The players and coaches are fine. It's their pompous insufferable fans that I can't stand. I hate it when they're happy. As long we keep kicking their butts in football, I'll be satisfied.

Re: NIL

I'm guessing most of you are aware of One Wyo. https://1wyo.org/ The director was interviewed on Ryan Thorburg's Pokescast just a few days ago. Athletes must donate time to charity to receive the NIL funds. Seems reasonable to me. If we want to be competitive, then NIL is going to be a big part of o...

Re: Remaining tourney

I hate to say it, but csewe was very impressive last night. It wouldn't surprise me if they won the tournament. I would agree the MW gets 6 teams in.

Re: Trending in the Wrong Direction

The generally accepted recommendation is that you should save a minimum of 10x your annual salary if you want to retire at age 67 and live a similar lifestyle in retirement. If you want to travel and have some fun in retirement, you will need much more than that. This also assumes you have a home t...

Re: Trending in the Wrong Direction

Because last year was such a trainwreck, I think I felt somewhat relieved that this year's team wasn't as bad. But in reality, it was still a pretty awful result. Another losing season and not really competitive with the better teams in the conference. As others have posted, we will basically start ...

Re: Fresno - twice in a row

You're afraid of a team that didn't win 10 games this year and we just beat by 40 on their own court on senior night? Ok. If we show up and don't play terrible, we will beat them easily again. This is a horrible team that couldn't bother to show up on their own court. Even if they are motivated, wh...

Re: 24-25 Roster

4 years of Linder and 1 MW tournament win. That's Heath Schroyer territory. I can't defend him anymore. I think Powell could have been a productive player. He actually regressed this year. Maybe Linder needs future NBA players for his system to work. Whatever. I don't know and I don't care. This pr...

Re: Fresno St @ MWC tourney

Who exactly on this team would it hurt to lose to the portal? They stink. Manyawu. Just turned 18 and loads of potential. But he gone. Horsecrap. He can't shoot and he can't handle the ball. He's athletic and he can rebound. He had 3 points today. A total non factor. If he gets a big offer, let him...

Re: Fresno - twice in a row

I was wrong - Fresno is much worse than their terrible NET. Glad we poured it onto them! I’d have to think Fresno should come out really motivated Wednesday after their embarrassing loss at home (worst ever for Fresno in conference). This is my fear. You're afraid of a team that didn't win 10 games...

Re: at Fresno

A road win is always nice. But Fresno st. looks like a team that's ready for the season to be over. If we can get them down early in Vegas, resistance might be very low.

Re: Fresno - twice in a row

It's amazing to me that had we beat csewe last week, we would be tied with them in the conference standings today. I'm guessing we win in Fresno. They have beaten air force 2x and SJS 2x. It's a long way back to the Jerry Tarkanian days. We've lost to good teams but not the dregs of the conference. ...

Re: Border War, down there

Griffin and Kot were both 2-11 from the field. Powell didn't score a point. We've lost 7 of 8 and I've been a big defender of Linder but I'm starting to lose faith. If Kogenets sees a single minute on the court, it makes me wonder how bad everyone else on the bench must be because he is utterly wort...

Re: UNLV

A lot more fun to watch than some of the recent blowouts It certainly had more drama at the end. But I'd argue the 1st half might have been the worst half of bb we've played this year. Turnovers, missing wide open shots and not even getting 20 points in the first half. If Vegas hadn't been so inept...

Re: UNLV

Watching on tv.....just nothing but empty seats and Wyo. with another uninspiring performance. Can Linder make it to next year? I thought it was a foregone conclusion that he would but I'm starting to wonder.

Re: Cowgirl freshman runs a fast mile

Salma won the women's mile today in the MW championship. She came back less than 2 hours later and finished 2nd in the women's 3k, breaking the school record at the same time. In sprints and middle distance, which was every running event that had a qualifying heat on Friday, Elbadra was the only run...

Re: Linder got tossed.

I didn't see the players deflate when Linder went out. It didn't really help the cause, but it sure didn't cost us the game. Getting on the officials clearly works in the MWC. I'm watching CSU at NM right now and Medved and Petino are all over them. Linder isn't special in that regard. Whether the ...

Re: Linder got tossed.

The loss of Ike hurt us - no doubt. It hurt us badly. I don't know that we are ever going to compete with that kind of cash for our top-flight players. That said, it might help, just a smidge, if our coach had a bit better rapport with his players. I know Maldo and Wenzel have defended him...but no...

Re: Linder got tossed.

If Ike got 500k from Gonzaga, then I don't think Bohl had to contend with anything like that. The one physical stud we had on offense, Neyor, left for big money. Maybe we don't have to deal with it as much in football because most of our players are not going to make a major impact on a P5 team. If ...

He played a little. It seems like this is his 7th or 8th year.
