Cowboys are holding an open scrimmage Oct 17th, before the

[Cowboy Junky]

Nevada game. I might have a reason to attend a football game this year.

Do you think this one will actually be open (this time)? I sure hope so...would be a blast to go check out (and a perfect fit with HC activities IMO).

God I hope this actually happens this time! I cannot wait to see these guys play some ball!

It's too bad the volleyball team doesn't play a home game that weekend. I'm going to have to go to Laramie to see them this year.

Great bunch there...best we have had for quite some time. Very well coached, and they gel as a team!

Since organized practices have now officially begun, I imagine this will go on as announced. I think the issue with the previous one was it wasn't an official practice, yet was being marketed as such.

I personally love this from Shyatt! Interest is as high as it's been for a very long time, and this is a great way to get fans excited. Maybe actions like this will help attendance through the end of the year. I don't have any stats to back it up, but I would imagine that our OOC attendance compared to conference attendance spread for men's basketball was higher than average last year.

It would also be nice if Bohl had this type of transparency (or at least a little bit more) with the football team. Gamedays and one word answers during interviews don't do much to interest fans and/or ease fears/concerns. Then again, it seems like if practices were open all we would see is the receivers sitting in lawn chairs watching Gentry do all the work while the rest of the team takes turn smacking Wick in the head with a club and age-appropriate coloring books being passed out to our DB's in position meetings. Maybe it's a good thing practices are closed...
