The funny part of that argument that he was kept to preserve the roster is that 1 year later those same people are arguing that the roster was garbage and he was left with nothing. haha it is madness and changes to a new excuse every time our coach or AD speak. I am agreeing with you that it was a really bad contract for Wyoming.

Bingo. Listen to Cody Tucker make excuses for the roster Sawvel inherited. He makes it sound like the cupboard was completely bare. If it was, then what the hell were we trying to save? Not to mention that the defense got worse when Sawvel came on board as DC! But, what do you expect from the AD that extended Heath Schroyer - after a 7-9 conference record?

Wow...I had no idea people were actually making that argument..(I don't listen to Cody Tucker obviously). Acting like the cupboard was bare is nonsensical...not because we have some reservoir of talent, but because getting it done with the cards you are dealt is the job at Wyoming. Bohl understood that, and the "success" (I know...he's not Paul Roach) he had was largely in spite of talent level and not because of it.

Bohl had built something that was perennially tough, hardnosed and well-respected. That is what Sawfull inherited...in nearly two seasons...it has been pretty much squandered.
