Realistically, any new staff is going to have a high bar of 9-3/8-4 and a low bar of Koenning.

If we go 3-1 to end the season, going in a different direction would defy sensibility. If we go 0-4 or 1-3, sure go in a different direction but you will be kidding yourself if you’re expecting top 25 rankings merely with a staff change.
Your summation echoes my own sentiments. The constraints keeping Wyoming from being a perennial top 50 program might not have as much to do with coaching as people on this board think. As I've said before...I hope that I am wrong but with each passing year and each coaching change that does not get us anywhere, it gets harder for me to believe that we are just a coach away.
Lets not forget last year. Tons of transfers and one of the youngest teams in the country. Outside of the Fresno game, it was a hell of a coaching and playing performance.

Last year is what kept me open-minded about seeing what he could do this year. I don't think any of us are completely ignoring it.

As far as I'm concerned, this is/was Bohl's "prove it" year.

yeah, last year was the tease. Amazing they can play play so well last year when they were so young and then not take giant leap and be more dominant.
