Burman’s decision…

[Steamboat]

I still think you send a huge message if you fire Burman now.

It sends a powerful negative message by not firing Burman now.

If Sawvel had any brains at all he definitely would fire Aaron Bohl.

I know. All evidence so far is he does not. I thought head coaching 101 was if the season is going badly, fire an assistant.

Craig Bohl = Only success at QB were transfers

Aaron Bohl = only success at LB were transfers

Aaron is a DC because papa dicatated that to Sawful

And is likely why Sawful has a guaranteed contract.

No. Gross incompetence by the AD and serious concerns as to whether the general counsel office flagged the contract provision in their presumable review.

I feel like both scenarios are not mutually exclusive.

I don't see Sawvel getting fired before the end of the season. Fire Burman, get a new AD. He can take the whole season to scout coaches.

Yea this is what needs to happen. Can Burman ASAP

 

[Wyolie Coyote]

Burman said he is taking over playcalling..

Oh thank god! We will have hands in the dirt and Cowboy tough now! NOT.

 

[Wyolie Coyote]

Aaron is a DC because papa dicatated that to Sawful and Burman

FIFY

Burman had better hope that Wicks can have success this year. I like women's soccer and volleyball as much as the next guy, but to have football already in the crapper, women's basketball in a smoldering heap (Ezell has destroyed that program) and men's basketball afire would hopefully trigger an immediate termination. As much as I'd love to see something happen during the FB season, my guess is the General will be more deliberate. That said, if MBB is in free fall, he will have no choice.

BOT is going to demand that Burman be allowed to ‘retire’ effective July 1…watch. Pretty sure Reeves’ hands are tied for this year.

Best case scenario would be Burman allowed to ‘retire early’ but im pessimistic Reeves even given that ability from BOT.

A few have terms up and Wyoming will have a new governor this year. Is Eric Barlow a Wyoming Football fan? I know he is from your area OreDigger

Barlow is somewhat of a Wyoming football fan I believe based on his voting record (although he attended CSU for vet school). Here's a good article from his former colleague Tom Lubnau: https://cowboystatedaily.com/2026/07/08/tom-lubnau-eric-barlow-a-man-for-the-times/

I don't expect Barlow to rock the boat much at all for UW trustees. I think we will see a similar approach that we saw with Gordon.

The Board of Trustees membership looks like there are 4 members whose terms expire next year. Many look like they have been on the board for years. Not much hope for a change over there.
