Burman/Reeves Address Board of Trustees Regarding Athletics

I do think tht Reeves got numerous emails coming in re the state of UW athletics. I know I wrote to him and he responded very frankly and not PC stuff--I was encouraged, but I am sitting out this year regardless. I hope the Pokes win 7+ games, but my people are telling me that the Offense is not doing well and our new QB well he is coming in from W & M and he had his issues there as well. Let's hope he is above that as well and we have a great year with an easy schedule. I still say that the CSU game sets the tone.

Wasn’t he like, a Dj, or something

Yes, his dad ran the local classic rock station in Rock Springs when he was growing up (KSIT 104.5) and he would DJ on occasion and went by the name Rockin' Reeves.

I can understand your reluctance. Hughes is a very good QB and if the OL can finally block someone instead of the turf all the time than Wyoming O will be in the 28/game range. It is hard to judge Hughes at W&M in a difficult conference like CAA, though they left that this year.

With all due respect....Poke fans have been down this path, it seems, for the past century. I, for one, have stopped buying into any preseason hype. Until I see something that resembles a D1 team on the field, I'm going to continue to call BS on any of the reports coming out of Laradise....
