Hunter Thompson is not going to Creighton.

I stand by my comment, I was trying to be fair to the kid.

CowboyCourt's first post. Creighton fan I would guess.

When is signing day deadline? Do most expect him to wait until then to make a decision?

Brown and Gold, we would love to have ya and see you as the next instate force, kid has true potential!!!

I don't think Hunter is going to make his decision based off passionate Cowboy fans losing an in state kid. In a state as small as Wyoming, that's always going to happen. It's still a bit on the stupid side for some of our posters, but it's not like that level of negativity is exclusive to Wyoming. That's standard for any program recruiting a guy they want more than anyone else, especially if he's an in-state kid in a small population state with the rich basketball history Wyoming has.

I'm excited with the recruits Edwards and company have landed so far. Buddha Jones, Louis Adams, and Hunter Maldanado all bring length and athleticism. We're still in the mix for Hunter and Parker. That duo has the potential to transform Wyoming into an annual top 20 program.

I'm also excited that Hunter's final schools are all within driving distance of his home town. He wants to stay local, and there aren't many programs that fit his wish list.

Also, my brother pointed out that Kansas doesn't normally recruit 4's with the skill set that Hunter has. He's right. They don't. It would be out of the ordinary for Kansas to offer a 4 without incredible leaping ability and freakish athleticism.

I guess we'll find out soon enough with Hunter. August the first is only two days away.

If he does commit, some of you folks have some explaining to do...

I hope he fails miserably.....if true.

Fuck him then. Why would you root for anyone who just spit in your face and asked you if you liked it?

...But this kid just thinks he is bigger than the state and I bet he has never had anyone tell him differently. Maybe he is.

But make no mistake, if he fails I will join the laugh brigade.

Thompson and Stewart could have been legends here, a great 1-2 punch. Piss on it if he doesn't have loyalty to home state. He will have a rude awakening I think going from 2A competition to D1. He will need a redshirt for sure.

Fuck him. He is no JMaC

Not a lot of kids want "messiah to turn around the fate of the program" on their shoulders as a freshman.

He and his family should move to Omaha since it's so great there.

Sweet! I made the asshole list!

Perhaps Thompson didn't choose Wyoming because he felt Papa Shy was likely to retire before he finished? Thompson has the chance to become a Wyoming Legend. I'd rather be a Wyoming Legend than an Arizona State also ran...

 

[Smeller]

Did he commit to AZ St?

Did he commit to AZ St?

Theres nothing the twittersphere or google indicating a decision yet....

Where are you seeing AZ St Cowboy?

 

[ItSucksToBeACSURam]

Anyone hearing anything on this front? Thought for sure something would have come out by now...

There was a giant hail storm in Pine Bluffs that has pretty much put life on hold down there. Both of Hunter's parents houses were destroyed by the hail. I imagine his decision is on the back burner until that is sorted out.

Yikes. That makes a lot of sense. Hopefully everyone is ok and there were no injuries or worse.

Saw pictures of PB after that storm... Looks like a damn war zone.

That sucks. I hope everyone's insurance treats them right.

I'm an insurance agent who owns a home in Pine Bluffs. "Nightmare" is the word that comes to mind when speaking about the last week.

I have a rule about living in places that will try to kill you.. Southern Wyoming, Kansas, and Nebraska fit that bill.

Then again, I'm surrounded by forest fires every year.

Try living in central Oklahoma with all the tornadoes! Thankfully, I'm in northern OKC. Now if I was in Moore, OK.....Oh...boy.... :roll: Moore gets more F5 tornadoes....

 

[MrTitleist]

Oh yeah, I forgot about that place too.
