Re: Craig Bohl's Legacy

*sigh*...do you just not see the text that I write when I observe that the conference strength has slipped? I accept that it's not irrational to think that playing somewhat worse teams in conference should contribute to more wins in conference. Do I need to write that twice? here goes...maybe it wi...

Re: Craig Bohl's Legacy

I've looked at the conference strength stuff just like everybody else...I'm a Wyoming football fan that cares about that stuff. The difference in conferences between The first 12-15 years of this century and since then, is that the six teams that are still in the conference from the earlier time pe...

Re: What do you guys think of Burman?

I don't think the people that rated him higher are looking to the AD to deliver conference championships. I did not rate him that high but I also don't look to him to deliver titles. I've long believed that the function of a collegiate AD has more to do with high attendance in revenue sports and ut...

Re: Craig Bohl's Legacy

I'm not saying Bohl was a bad coach. He was good enough to keep us from being a dumpster other than 2 years. He was good enough to keep us able to beat dumpster fire teams and some mediocre teams most years. In these years, strength of opponent really mattered. He also had a couple good years where...

Re: Craig Bohl's Legacy

When I get time I'll show you why your analysis is wrong. Some of the crappy teams we beat each year aren't the same every year. Csu fell off the map since Sonny. Yes, other than 2 years Bohl kept us from being a bad team. I've already said that. However, in a dog$hit conference you can count on se...

Re: Craig Bohl's Legacy

I don't know the "right" way to look at those to periods of time but focusing on SOS seems to be a version of trying to answer the question "who would win head to head?". Once you are separated by a generation...it's very hard to compare apples and apples. The need to remind eve...

Re: Attendance

Great example....they went 11-4 at home this year. What if they had gone 4-11? Probably still would have been a decent turnout. But I’m still not following - Wyoming is 8-2 at home this year in Men’s basketball. The problem isn’t inability to win home games, it is zero effort to get students there ...

Re: Craig Bohl's Legacy

Agreed that the early 2000's MWC was a vastly tougher conference. But those teams could hardly manage to get the right number of players on the field sometimes. And they didn't win OOC either, and had elegibility issues. Boh's tenure has been nothing like it. I'm not talking Bohl's tenure just that...

Re: Craig Bohl's Legacy

1-21 in conference over those years. How quickly folks forget I guess. Bad teams also. Bohl's are right up there against worse competition. Everybody always debates the best.... Now we can argue over who is the worst! For my money...there just is no excuse in the conference that Wyoming is in to wi...

Is the purpose of this poll to show everyone that our fanbase is satisfied with being very average? :whistle: Just trying to get a sense of what people think of Bohl. It's hitting about where I expected it would. He's a highly respected coach that was a great cultural fit for Wyoming...even if he n...

Re: What do you guys think of Burman?

Shame on you 6's, 7's, and 8's. Question: What athletic department in the MWC has the fewest championships since inception, including those teams that left? I don't think the people that rated him higher are looking to the AD to deliver conference championships. I did not rate him that high but I a...

Re: Craig Bohl's Legacy

Many folks were happy when ‘average Joe’ Tiller left because they were convinced that a head coach was holding Wyoming back from championships. I gave Bohl an 8 (rounded up from 7.5) based on what he inherited to the respectable and competitive program he and his staff built. I hope I am wrong but ...

In order to better understand your categories -- are you a moral relativist or a moral absolutist? Is there such thing as "my truth and your thruth" or is there just "one truth"? I also wonder if in reality many people here may be in a category 1.5? Category #1.5 - Those who vie...
