Re: Cowgirls in WNIT
The embodiment of the current state of Wyoming athletics. The most mediocre of the mediocre.

Re: How to End NIL?
The NIL genie is out of the bottle. In some form, paying athletes is now part of the bargain. My guess is that the demand for more money accelerates, with calls for media rights sharing, etc. With Title IX, there will be legal requirements to elevate women's equity in the pay scheme, which will onl...

Re: Trending in the Wrong Direction
You are seeing a growing number of head football coaches in mid-tier FBS schools leave for assistant jobs in the higher end of the P5 (or whatever you want to call the BIG and SEC these days). You are even seeing coaches like Chip Kelly - at UCLA - who saw the writing on the wall and left to coach t...

Re: Trending in the Wrong Direction
My dad indicated that Linder did not appear for any post-game comments with Keith and Kevin. Was that due to MWC conference tourney obligations? Or was he consoling his team? Or was he just pouting and avoiding having to face any music for his spiraling program?

Re: Trending in the Wrong Direction
I should have held my tongue on wrestling and some of the other sports - as I don't care or know a lot about most of them to be quite honest. That said, men's and women's basketball are not inspiring any confidence in me...

Trending in the Wrong Direction
I will give Sawvel a chance - I actually think that he can win and do well. The fact that he was able to hold current players on the roster and recruit solid freshmen appears to show he is a players coach. Linder is a lost cause to me. Absent a huge leap next year, with a clear showing that his inco...

Re: 24-25 Roster
To follow a buttstain 2022-2023 campaign and craptastic 2023-2024 season. I never thought that I would see a coach do more damage than Edwards, but I fear we may be there. Napoleon has met his Waterloo years.

Re: Fresno St @ MWC tourney
This is one of the worst losses I can remember. Man this season SUCKED and was no fun I'll take this season over last season any day I don't want either to happen again anytime soon. Sort of like having to choose between getting kicked in the testicles or mouth... Unfortunately, I don't see anythin...

Re: Fresno - twice in a row
Given our road woes the last several years, this could be revised to say "it's not located in Laramie, Wyoming."

Re: Boyzee
Laramie has bad winters. Logan doesn't. Laramie is too far from an urban center. Logan is cosmopolitan as hell. The wind blows in Laramie. Logan is like Malibu, California. Oh, wait... Logan may be more METROPOLITAN than Laramie, but Logan and cosmopolitan in the same sentence? :lol: I wish there w...

Re: UNLV
A total of 3 players who will theoretically be returning next year entered the game (Manyawu, Powell, Combs). One starter (Powell). Don't worry, Linder will go down Chadron State and recruit some graduate seniors. Correct. My biggest concern is that our roster has no rhyme or reason. It feels and i...

Re: UW Block Grant Budget Amendment
I credit my education for providing me with an ability to think and decide on my own. I credit some professors I had with views far opposing mine for the ability to disagree and to take a stand against their view. I am thankful my education wasn’t merely a legislative echo chamber. I credit colleag...

Re: UW Block Grant Budget Amendment
You think we should also have the legislature review the syllabi of each professor? It seems regardless as to what you title a class, the professor might deviate from what the legislature believes they ought to teach. I mean, we ought to ensure that our highly impressionable adult college students ...

He also thinks this is a bad idea, does he not. I have no idea what his degree is in, maybe it was some kind of liberal arts degree due all I know. I can tell you, with my science degree, I didn’t have to take any of these kind of classes. Lots of math, science, and history for me. Little bit of an...
