Women's team

[SDPokeFan]

I hadn't been following them yet this year, but just looked them up and saw the horrible record. Not only are they losing, they are getting skull drug virtually every game. Anybody with any insight as to what has happened to them? Does one player really make that much difference?

They lost like 4 players to graduation and now they are relying to Pedersen to carry the load. Ollilenen is out for the year and that hurts.

They don't play great D at times and when they go cold shooting they go ice cold. They will be in games and then one quarter will get outscored 24-5 randomly. Happened last night being down 20-5 in the 1st against NV. They would lose in OT after scoring...1...1 damn point in OT.

poor recuiting

Poor recruiting for sure, and not great in game adjustments. That’s been the pattern since Coach G retired. This is another case of Burman taking the easy road and hiring within rather than opening a position after an exit. Attendance is dwindling for the women’s program, and frankly, right now, they’re very difficult to watch.

Wouldn’t it be easier to say all of Wyoming’s sports teams are mediocre or worse? What’s the common denominator?

The jackass running the entire athletic department perhaps?

 

[LanderPoke]

That’s, Burman, for the horrendous DEI hire

For the low price of $555,000 per year.

WTF??? How can could you justify paying her that much. Unreal

That is Burman's salary. Heather makes between 200-260 based on incentives

 

[Vapoke]

She is on contract until 2029 as well. Probably give this season a wash but next year she wil have to hit the portal hard to fill the bench

Not to be "that guy" but her decision to become inseminated and give birth in the middle of the season says a lot. Her choice, etc., etc., but I question her ownership from that circumstance.

Her ownership? She had a baby and took the team to second place in the MWC, the championship game in the conference tournament, and the NIT.

Maybe Sundance ought to take a few weeks off to give birth.

Wasn't her team / recruits, but whatever. Oh, and yes, she missed out on recruiting - and it shows. Lastly, she had a choice of when to get turkey basted, and chose a crucial time to miss HER FUCKING JOB.

And her assistant proved to be the better in-game coach while she was away.....

 

[Bosler]

This is really something...she's a "DEI hire," she had a damn baby...and when it goes well it's not to her credit, and when it goes badly it's her fault, and she and Burman should be fired.

Sometimes this board is hallucinatory.
