A crappy football season, a horrendous womens basketball team, and struggling mens basketball team equates to $851k for the leader of the athletic department. Absurdity.

I would add to 'accomplishments' of the AD over the past year:
1) Positioning Wyoming in an awful future conference that still lacks any viable media deal
2) Giving up a home football game with a good North Texas program to go play at Colorado State (the same team leaving us behind and suing us)
3) Creating absolute confusion as to 'NIL' donations and the accounting of such donations.
4) Successfully ensuring that the lower stands on the West side are never more than half full for a football contest.
5) Going to the legislature with a lazy and dead on arrival $6 million request that added fuel to the Freedom Caucus' desire to gut University funding, leading to what appears to be a $40 million cut in the block grant.

He whiffed on the future conference thing, pretty sure if somebody (talking to you media) asked for public email records, they would find out something that would shock us all. That said, not sure it matters, as we likely will have to join those assholes once again in a future conference together. What a waste of money.
Another concern, the overall athletic facility look is starting to take a hit. There are issues that to a professional eye look dilapidated and run down. Not just talking about landscaping weeds, but I am sure if you really all look, you will see things. Wonder how often he walks his facilities (all of them, inside and out) and does and inspection with his team(s), mandating a professional look. Likely never.

He's too busy playing footsies with an ex-mayor of Cheyenne. Another good look, openly cheat on and leave your wife.
I had assumed he was divorced because of his boldness. Is he divorced or no?

He is now...LOL.
And I will leave it at that. He sucks as an athletic director, and has basically since day 1, but I cringe at the personal shit.

I’m with you on the cringe.
It is not fair to anyone to speculate on someone’s personal life and whether they may or may not be cheating on a significant other without some damn good information.
Plus, someone’s personal bedroom business is not my business. But their ability to perform the functions of a highly funded state position (free of distraction) certainly is.

He’s a G.O.B. in someone’s realm and basically untouchable. Talk about elitism, the AD position at Wyoming defines it.
The economic factors are at a point where the viability to enhance let alone sustain the current status quo will require a significant cash infusion. The average middle class John Q. Public Wyoming Cowboys fan is a thoroughly squeezed lemon. If the settlement with the pee12 ever occurs it will be a temporary bandage to the pending disaster that is occurring before our eyes in real time.

This is all why i basically support the Freedom Caucus in not funding the additional $6 million for the NIL. The BOT won't do anything then the legislature may as well stop funding this stuff -- it's the only other way out.
