Re: QBs in transfer portal

We are a "developmental" program. Craig has decreed it and it is so. Do not question him. In his mind, change shows weakness. Adaptation means your initial idea was wrong - and he is never wrong. Pope Bohl is never wrong. All of this is to say that the chances of us going into the portal ...

Retire Bohl. Hire a proven FBS HC (Patterson) and see what happens.

Re: Sheep fire their coach

The reality is that Fort Collins and the Front Range lend themselves to moving well beyond us - just in terms of geography, diversity and opportunity. . . . . It will mostly be our fault. Because we accept being blah. I mean, how do you propose we change things? We like to make fun of Fort Fart, bu...

Re: Sheep fire their coach

One of these days, CSU will get it right and they will leave us in the dust. When they do, we will jealously decry their move to a different conference or P5 status and talk about how they are undeserving. The reality is that Fort Collins and the Front Range lend themselves to moving well beyond us ...

Re: Denver University, Thursday, December 2nd, 7:00 p.m....Help turn the AA into the "Dome of Doom" again.

UW hoops is looking great - talented, well coached, and obviously passion to play the game (other like the other major sport at UW). Hopefully the fans will return to the 2002-ish form. That said, I am still pissed about the seating reorg that UW did (Burman) years ago. It leaves very little opport...

Re: Transfer Portal

Well, Peach, the only sure bet then us that Bohl won’t know you left. He will never check the portal. We are a developmental program. Seems he might have to develop some new fans with all of us old farts bowing out.

Re: Here we go again…

Historically, I have not been a fan of forsaking football to build a power in basketball. The Hawaii game and this 2021 season changed my outlook. Even if we sink $50 mil a year into football, we will never compete. We are in the wrong state, wrong conference and wrong era with the wrong leadership...

Re: Fire Bohl!!

If Wyo hired Sumlin, tell someone at the state liquor department to up the orders for Laramie. He's one of the biggest drinkers in college coaching. At A&M (likely Arizona too) he had a person who's sole job was to drive him around and keep him out of trouble. Yeah, we're not hiring Sumlin or a...

Re: Bowl Projections

As was stated earlier, I have real doubts as to whether another 15 practices with the gaggle of Fraggles we have as coaches will be a net positive or a net negative. Wyoming's performances after BYE weeks suggest that my skepticism surrounding the value of extra practice is justified. This said, we ...

I loathe CSU, but karma is a cruel witch and I don't want to entice her to find Wyoming or me any more often than she already does. I will just say that McBride is a stud. I respect that heck out of him and his game.

Re: Hawaii game thread

Another 15 practices under this staff would be a net loss methinks. So incredibly true and so horribly sad. Our offensive line was supposed to be a strength and was crap most of the season. At least get rid of Frazier. And I will be shocked if Neyor and/or Cobbs, aren’t in the transfer portal. Gran...

Re: Fire Bohl!!

With a once in multiple lifetimes quarterback and receiving corps that saw multiple guys go to the NFL. And we still couldn’t win it.

Sorry to be so negative, but I think I earned a bit of pessimism today and this year!

Bohl will never win a championship at Wyoming. Never. We will all be dead if we wait on the deserted island of Bohl-ball for a championship.
