Where's Linder from, hope he has HC experience

He’s the current HC for University of Northern Colorado. UNC has beat Wyoming three years in a row. The Bears are 20-9 sitting in third in the Big Sky.

Prior to his stint at UNC, he was the Assistant Head Coach at Boise State, so he has Mountain West experience as well.

Also a native of CO who played at Western State.

Does Edwards save his job if we win tonight? I'm just having weird flashbacks to when McClain was as good as gone until he got us to the finals of the MWC tournament. It basically got him one more year.

It's hard to imagine based on the totality of the last 2 years. But I wouldn't be shocked if it happened.

This brings up a good question as to what it would take for Edwards to get another year ( he does have 1 year left on his contract so he could get one without having to get extended). I say he would need to not only win the entire MWC tourney but also be competitive in the tourney game.

The odds of this happening are almost 0.

Enjoying the fun for now, Beat Utah State

This does feel like a “we’re giving you another year after seeing some potential” type a deal. Wouldn’t surprise me.

Steve McClain got fired with a winning a record. How crazy does that seem now? McClain should have been allowed another year to continue with Ewing, Jones, and Taylor. Burman is the one most responsible for decline of Wyoming basketball. Pretty sure he extended Shroyer for a season similar to the one he fired McClain for.

It wouldn't surprise me either, but if that happens I hope the new president shows burman the door

With one year on his contract, I can really see them giving Edwards another shot. Don’t think the president will shitcan Burman just because basketball isn’t doing well. What else would he have cause for?
