Since he had no interest in CSU, I doubt he will have any interest in WYO. Maybe immediate starting would be enticing :D I know. I know. One can hope.

Re: Luke Del Rio?

Would be well worth a look, but...no chance. He will play in the PAC or Big12 probably. Yeah, I started reading a little more about him. Had offers from Okie Lite and Oregon State. Good sized pro-style QB. Turned down CSU offer. Appears to be no chance. Too bad; if Oredigger is correct, it would be...

Luke Del Rio?

Alabama QB is transferring. Sounds like Oregon State bound but his Dad is with the Broncos. He could drive up the road and watch his son play at all home games. I don't know a lot about him, but Oregon State did offer him out of high school; he chose to walk on at Bama. Anyone know anything about hi...

Re: Big 5 proposal is out...

My thought is that if we agree to this, we (Gang of 5) also get autonomy for other issues like number of sports required to be offered.

Re: Top 10 Coaching Hires according to Jeremy Fowler

I wouldn't disagree too much with those rankings. Peterson does have a track record but BSU coaches haven't done great outside of the blue turf, so I don't know. Still, until he is proven a loser, I don't see reason to knock him too much yet. I don't know much about Diaco, though. He still has the B...

Re: Jason Thompson gone

Boy, with the apparent steady decline of the Bball team and the football team never really being on track since the 90s, and well, just drink up.

I'm really thinking HCs are not the problem. Good luck, Bohl, you are going to need it.

I would agree with decent at stopping the run in most MWC games. Good offenses still lit us up. We haven't had a d line that could generate a significant pass rush in I don't know how long.

He needs to get line play, and he needs to maintain recruits who will make plays. He needs to continue to get Alvester Alexander's, Shaun Wicks, Robert Herrons and even Brett Smith's... If he doesn't you will have Joe Glenn all over again. Good line play, no playmakers. Hence, why we had hardly any...

Re: With so many coaches coming from NDSU.

Outside of the 4 and 5 star recruits, it is a crap shoot. Some of those kids don't even work out. Bohl will have immediate success if he can just get line play. If you have outstanding line play, you will do very well in the MWC every year. If you combine that with good skill players, you can have a...

Good points, SnowyRange. It is funny to think that the BCS was our hay day; our best shot of inclusion.

Re: Who will be Wyoming's next DC?

The MWC has decent skill players with some speed and evasiveness. The Tampa 2 is a bend don't break mentality. It requires smaller, fast, good coverage linebackers--especially the MLB to cover the medium to deep center. Because your LBs spend so much time trying to control the short and medium area,...

Most everything was either unfounded (i.e sour grapes) or from the Les Miles era (i.e. beyond the 5 year rule).
