A pretty good read if you can see the whole article. Athletics wise, he had this to say:
Athletics was another priority in Reeves’ address. He said that athletics are the “front porch of the university,” as they form how people outside of the state first see UW. He argued that a strong athletics program can help with student recruitment, state pride and the university’s national brand.
Reeves also added that college athletics are changing quickly due to NIL (name, image and likeness), revenue sharing and major television contracts. He said UW can’t step away from that world, even if it is complicated.
Reeves spoke about overall culture as well. He addressed the audience by asking the community surrounding the university to be good teammates, stay positive, do their best, be present and have fun.
“My job is, at the end of the day, to resource you, to help you innovate and help accelerate the greatness that is the University of Wyoming,” he said.
