Good Article on Coach Sundance Wicks at Green Bay

[laxwyo]

I vehemently disagree with you on this topic, and will leave it at that. Call the police, call the FBI, call the Game & Fish, hell - do something worthwhile and do as you need to. But to do the entire fanbase dirty at WYO through social-fvcking-media? That is total BS, a low blow, and something I would expect from a teen, not a 40 something leader / coach. Ridiculous, immature, and bridge burning. I have since changed my stance on him being a fit for Wyoming - no matter how great of a career he has, hope he continues to do it elsewhere.

Do you have information that neither he and the University failed to alert the authorities? It was my understanding at the time that they did.

You are seeing this with brown and gold goggles. Posting it on social media was the only way to alert the perpetrator that he was taking the potential threat to his family seriously (whether it was a Wyoming fan, CSU fan, or just a pissed off neighbor). Perhaps next time, the letter author should put their name to the letter they dropped off and he wouldn't have needed to go to social media.

I disagree with you on this as well.

Posting stuff like this is akin to playing the victim card. Which I hate

I absolutely disagree.

The letter was put in his home mailbox and directly addressed his family. If it was an anonymous email or didn’t mention his family, I doubt he does anything and we hear nothing of it. But any threat to his family (no matter what you think the extent of threat might be) must be addressed. The writer clearly knew where his family lived and took the time to travel to his house - - that’s a threat to family in my book.

Do you still feel this way after what Linder has done to the program and the timing of his leaving?

Personally, I’m very hopeful we land Wicks at this point.

Yes, I do still feel that same way. Frankly, and honestly, without Noah Reynolds running point last year, GBW would have probably lost 6 - 8 more games at minimum, just guestimating from the box scores and the impact that kid had on the program and the W/L record. And now that he is hired (Sundance) - he will get my support, as Linder did, Edwards did, Schroyer did, McClain did, Shyatt did, etc. Burman took the very easy route, if you want my real opinion. But I expected that. Now we will see, hope Sundance sets the basketball world on fire!

Pretty much how I feel. The hate mail thing was weird and I did not see a point to make that public knowledge. He is the coach now and that's in the past, so he now has my full support. Full steam ahead.
