CSU game thread

[PorkerPoke]

Wyoming is so f...... small minded. We are now in a BS conference and just years aways from UNLV, NM and AFA moving on and possibly NDSU as well. Tarleton State will be in the PAC12 soon as well, who is Tarleton State, but they will zoom past the Pokes.

SO TAKE THIS and smoke it, at the end of the CSU game, they are playing on their jumbotron, MAMA DON'T LET YOU BABIES GROW UP TO BE COWBOYS!

Who’s the QB playing well at Tarleton State this year? Perhaps the program is better coached? I bet the Tarleton State AD is not making almost $600,000 per year fielding perennial losers.

If one or more people are not fired after last night, we aren’t serious about winning regardless of what the General has to say. It is that simple. If Sawvel and Burman remain in their current position, UW has made its statement.

I agree with you but I don’t think any major changes will happen until after the season ends.

Yep, we already know that Burman never fires anyone mid-season. He always wait till the end of the season putting us behind all the other teams that fire coaches in finding a new one. And I would assume the general would start by getting rid of Burman, but like others have said with him having his contract up at the end of this school year, I expect it will be announced he is " retiring" not being fired. So I don't think we see anything till the end of the season as well

In my opinion, this is the first real test for how serious President Reeves is about rehabilitating the athletics department.

If we wait to get rid of Burman until the end of his contract, we are stuck with Sawvel for another year. If he is truly serious about turning around athletics, that is just unacceptable in my opinion.

Yes, it is going to take money to buy out Burman’s final year and Sawvel’s last two years. I don’t care. Get it done. If it is truly financially unrealistic, then it’s time to admit we no longer have the finances to compete at this level.

Letting Burman retire vs. firing him misses the opportunity to make a statement. THAT is what is needed. I don’t care if they fire him with a day left on his contract, make the statement.

I’m not familiar with the current world of big donors to the WYO Ath Dept., but I think any buyout of the Sawvel contract would have to be sourced by those private dollars. Public money would just be a political hot potato.
