OC.....

[Midwest Cowboy]

I believe Sawvell's strategy is to keep the opponent's offense on the field as long as possible to wear them out. It also keeps our offense fresh and ready for the final two minutes. It is a unique Rocky Balboa-esque type strategy and one that Sawvell and his staff have perfected.

Well shit. That option is off the table.

I seriously doubt that Sawvel is going after the same OC candidates as CU.

Watching Texas Tech playing today, I am wondering why UW never uses an air raid offense? They would obviously need a capable quarterback at the helm. I’m thinking at 7220, UW would be able to wear teams out quickly.

Do you see Texas Tech’s line? They spend A LOT of money on that offense.

The point was to run an offense that makes the best use of the only advantage we have: altitude. Running twice up the middle and then a screen or flare pass does not do that.

I love the wish lists our fanbase comes up with for coaches every year. Yes, a well-known up and comer with no current Wyoming ties that has decades of experience producing top tier offenses would be a GREAT choice.

The problem that so many people seem to ignore is that we are going to have to hire someone who actually wants to be here and not somewhere else. That typically involves a Wyoming tie, or someone not super well known, or someone with not a ton of experience....

Why wouldn't everyone want to come to The Mecca of college football?

For a lame duck coach

2026 season will go the way of this hire and who the transfers are. If PBJ pulls a rabbit out of his hat and hires a good oc (and gives him the offensive reigns), there's a chance. The oc needs to be given leverage to hire his position coaches and needs to be connected for transfers.

The wrong hire or insufficient transfer talent will result in similar results. If PBJ gets the right people, the schedule is weak enough to get him to 2027.

An FCS OC that brings a QB with him maybe
