Let's start the whole "If you come to Wyo you will play but if you go to a big program you won't ever play and be a nobody" because obviously big programs don't ever have freshman or sophomores play and become stars.

That's my favorite game.

Are u still here?
Unfortunately he is.... BeaverPoke go jerk off with your Power 5 buddies on the Oregon State Message board.

Ah the kicker once again gets his feathers ruffled without me even trying! :rofl:

Cornpoke is a long time valued contributor of this board, unlike you. Go from super sunshine pumper to pessimistic troll in blink of an eye.

Bipolar.

First of all, nice insult there.

Secondly, how am I bipolar because I used to be super optimistic about Wyo football and have since realized what a joke of a football program we have had in my lifetime (2 bowl wins) and now think it is funny that Wyo fans think we are landing 4 or 5 star recruits after a 3-2 start under a new headcoach?

Don't get mad at me for pointing out facts, like Cornpoke likes to do.
He says things like I would be a horrible recruiter for Wyo because I point out how those two bowl wins in my lifetime are also the only two bowl wins in my Dads lifetime as well.
What's the problem? You don't like being reminded of our Cowboy Tough history?

Wait, I am the bipolar one?
Many posters on this board have done nothing but bitch and moan about Wyo athletics for the last decade now some think Wyoming is landing a kid who has literally two dozen P5 offers?

Damn even the old optimistic BeaverPoke probably wouldn't buy into this rumor.

You're superfandom was based on emotion, not reality. Anyone that didn't agree with you was either stupid or not a true fan. You experienced a few shitty years of UW athletics, run home to Oregon, and pull a complete 180 on your opinion of WY.

Grow up.
 
Run home to Oregon?
Yeah I was born and raised in Wyoming. Ive experienced over two decades of shitty Wyo athletics. If you're going to try and slam me you might as well get your facts straight.
 
And I've said it before, go ahead and look for it, my opinion of and hope for Wyo football changed when Bretr declared and Thompson transferred. Not when I "ran home" 3 weeks ago.

So you'll be back to pumping sunshine when we have a competent QB?
 
Back to topic, any other words on this? I see his only visits scheduled were Notre Dame and USC.

If nothing else, I'm glad to see we are at least offering this type of player. I probably missed it from previous coaching staffs, but my perception was that if they didn't think we had a chance, they didn't try. I could be wrong on that, but I like the approach of throwing the offer out no matter our odds of landing.

You are indeed wrong about that. DC had connections and offered almost every top player he could including Johny Manziel.

Now the difference might be that Bohl is actually making a pitch to these kids where DC might not have but I can't say for sure.

I definitely did not track it that close; either way, glad to see the offer out to kids like this.

It happens all the time where players will take a position at a "lesser" program. Hell, we already have one this upcoming recruiting class. I'd bet exactly zero dollars that this kid will be on our roster, but it does happen. Are there any P5 teams that have less bowl wins in your lifetime than Wyoming? Would these type players than pick Wyoming over those teams. I am not disputing your logic, but it isn't always a slam dunk where the best player picks Alabama, the second best picks (fill in your SEC team here), etc... Sometimes players do go where they logistically prefer, or where they feel a connection with the coach, or where they can be the big fish in a small pond from day one. What you can sell a 4 star recruit on is that many 4 star recruits go to big programs and fizzle and never make an impact. Whereas, I would assume, that when they come (albeit rarely) to a smaller program, they have better results.
 
I'd believe rumor more if port had a pic with coach bohl on his Twitter and not every single p5 team. Fuck, now I'm even differentiating between the two
