Well...as far as the program being in reverse...I guess that maybe we should see what things look like in year 4 or 5 of the program under Cuadrado. Last year had some promise, but his first year (with a talent laden squad) was abysmal finishing 1-5-1 in the watered down MWC. Now to be predicted 8th...ouch.
Although it was reported that Anne Moore resigned her position, that wasn't exactly the way it went down from my understanding, but that was 7 years ago, and water under the bridge - although I am not sure Anne is as forgiving as the fanbase. An article from the university regarding how she finished (in a much stronger MWC by the way): "This past season, Wyoming was 9-10 (.474) overall and was 4-3 (.571) in the MWC, tying for third place."
Then, we have Danny Sanchez, her replacement. He was an outstanding choice (from D11 much smaller Metro State), but came to odds with Burman as well, and went on to find a better opportunity at CU. Danny built off Anne's momentum, and really grew the program. All he wanted was the opportunity to compete for MWC championships (budget & facility wise) - but that wasn't going to be "afforded" by the administration. From another article: "Sanchez spent four seasons with the University of Wyoming, compiling a 36-34-11 record. In his final season with the Cowgirls, the team posted a 12-6-4 record, its best in school history, including a 3-1-2 record in Mountain West Conference play for a third-place regular season finish".
