A solid d and rebound JUCO big and Trace Young and we are looking good.
Agreed. A JUCO banger that can mix it up in the paint and haul in rebounds would be perfect.

Re: Recruiting

Glad to see these guys all commit. We'll have lots of new faces next year. Any word on Trace Young or Tre Campbell, or are they still shopping around ? Any word on others we are after?

Re: Recruiting

Looks like the staff is having some success recruiting the east coast (four of our five commits so far). Like the looks of this kid. Now we need some inside rebounding muscle. One of the top juco rebounders in the country - Austin Trice from Wabash Valley College is still available.......Go get him ...

Re: Don't panic! James testing NBA Draft waters

He is not NBA material. Just a pipe dream. Hopefully he doesn't hire an agent, if so his college career is over and he'll be scrambling to find something overseas. I'm not convinced he's even ready for Europe yet.

Re: What a poop show...

Loosing 2-3 players to transfer is not uncommon for any college program, and none of these guys were big producers. If they don't want to be here say goodbye and wish them well. They can go ride the bench for another team. Its an opportunity to land better players and I'm sure the coaching staff is ...

Charmed, talented, lucky.........whatever, A hard fought game and we were in it to the last second. Someone had to win this game, and we did!

Re: WYO @ CSU

I've taken a step back from my little upset temper tantrum after the San Jose game and you know what? How awesome is this season??? How sweet is it that WYO and CSU of all MW teams are now the highest ranked teams in conference? How great is it that we have the better team then CSU heading into thi...

Re: Huge Game Vs UNLV

Agreed, a must win home game. Confidence builder to kick off conference play. I would give my left arm to be there but work and distance won't allow it. I hope the AA fills up w/ raucous fans and intimidates the crap out of the Runnin Rebels. How fun would that be......a conference win then go hit t...

Re: ESPN insider picks Wyoming second

A healthy Nance is the key. If he comes back at 100%.....yes I firmly believe they can make a run at 2nd in the MW. We have a solid core of experienced starters. I am really interested in who will emerge as the big contributors off the bench.

Shyatt and his assistants proving you CAN recruit to Wyoming! Crazy good looking group of 2015 commits. I can't wait to see this bunch suit-up. Even more pumped for the start of this season! Basketball is returning to Wyoming in a BIG way!!
