There is no way that individual donors will come anywhere within the stratosphere of paying for a domed baseball stadium. This is beyond pie in the sky. The HAPC bled the athletic donors dry for big capital projects for the foreseeable future. The legislature has no money and won’t have any money to give either.

While we all love baseball and while I average 10-15 rockies games a year, baseball makes no sense in Laramie as a varsity sport plain and simple.

No dome on cowboy field. just a renovation for cowboy field, soccer, track, tennis, and build a one of a kind indoor Beach. What's so hard about that?

Also Ice hockey with the goal of being a year in year out top 10 program. Build an elite facility. Men's and women's hockey.

And before anyone mentions needing more women's sports it's time to scholarship the wildfire dance team. Bet there's a few here willing to help recruit. "Nothing spreads like Wildfire"

You mean all that we have to do is build a one of a kind indoor beach, renovate Cowboy Field to handle multiple Division 1 sports including baseball and build an elite hockey facility add probably 3-4 women's sports and build appropriate facilities for those sports to comply with Title IX...that's it? Get Tom Burman on the phone right now to let him know of your brilliant plan!!

A) No way you could sustain a somewhat competitive D1 baseball program in Laramie, Wyoming without some kind of dome/roof/protection from the elements, not possible.

B) Ice Hockey would NEVER be a year-in, year-out Top 10 program, that is an even bigger pipe dream than having a baseball team return. Seriously, this is like saying UW should just add Men's Lacrosse and they would be national title contenders in 5 years, it's just not feasible.

C) Why in the hell would you try to offset Title IX by giving scholarship and money to the dance team???

Seriously, I appreciate you thinking outside of the box with all this stuff, but the problem is that you clearly have no clue how college athletics works and your proposals are so far out of reality that they aren't even comical.

A). Not true. Northern Colorado has had a nationally elite baseball program. Wyoming has had a nationally respected program. Many poor weather schools are top 50 programs

B) how can the university of Denver be a national power but UW couldn't? An arena and a statewide program developing hockey could be worth the effort in a bunch of different ways even if a title contender never came

C) why scholarship Wildfire? Well Ive always been a huge believer already. Imagine if they paid them

Why not bring back our Nordic program who was always competitive, and we have the area to provide a good team. I do get frustrated when our Cross Country team doesn't fair well when we have some of the best areas to train in.
