Re: NIL

Rumor with Oregon football is total NIL for recent recruiting class was $15 million. No way kids from across the country going to Eugene unless their pockets are getting lined.

Scary amounts of cash being tossed around in the NIL world.

Re: Boyzee

Embarrassing loss. This is what our program is reduced to.

Re: Weber State

Amazing how far the program has fallen. Losing to Weber State by double digits is head scratching. Thanks NCAA for absolutely screwing over the Wyomings of college athletics.

Re: Air Force Opens as 10.5 point Favorites

What's up with the jump from -11 to -12.5? Injury we're not hearing about?

Re: Granderson

If I remember, he came to Laramie weighing about 195. Would say UW was very, very good to him.

Days of three yards and a cloud of dust per Woody Hayes are in the past. When are we going to get a QB and actual offense?

Re: Awful Men's Basketball OOC Schedule!!!

So we're playing at BYU on 12/30. Do we get a return game next year?

If like ASU and Colorado in football in the next few years where not returning to Laramie, not worth scheduling. Hate playing BYU period.

Re: Final Minute

Another scenario. Know the line was different but say you have Wyoming +20 and they kneel to run out the clock. Pissed?

Re: Lawson Lovering from Cheyenne....

Was UW even in the mix or was he going to Utah no matter what? If not considered, what is UW doing wrong that a kid from Cheyenne doesn't give them the time of day?

Re: Ike gone

The new world of NILs has effectively killed Wyoming basketball. We'll be a revolving door full of free agents every year.

Re: St Mary's Over Under???

Way too much 1-on-1 and no one wants to mix it up inside for rebounds.

Never thought I would say it but Maldo is painful to watch when isolating. Will be a miracle if we finish at .500.

Re: BIG XII Expansion

WSU and OSU should hit their knees every night and continue to thank the football gods that they are grandfathered into the Pac-12. Realistically, both schools should probably be in the MWC.

Re: BIG XII Expansion

Pac-12 not scared by the Big XII but they are terrified of the growth of the Big Ten and SEC. Revenue for the Pac-12 schools pales in comparison to the Big Ten / SEC. Have to do something or they will be at a competitive disadvantage. Wouldn't surprise me if Washington State and Oregon State were in...

Re: BIG XII Expansion

It will be about survival. The Big XII will implode and there will be four conferences left; Pac-16, SEC, Big Ten and ACC. All will have 16 teams. Pac-16 will expand into Texas as staying at 12 teams will not be an option. I know this is all speculation and I hate it as Wyoming gets kicked further d...

Re: BIG XII Expansion

The BYU faithful are totally delusional. Many people are confused that performance on the field is what this decision will be based on. Couldn't be farther from reality as BYU and Boise State have no chance. My understanding is football only is not really a consideration by the Big XII so BYU loses ...

Re: BIG XII Expansion

BYU gained relevance in the late 70's after Arizona State left the WAC. When they won their watered down title in '84, they really felt that they had arrived and could compete day in and day out with the big boys of college football. Still have that mind set from the 80's and 90's but in reality, th...

Re: Recap and see you next time at CIC--August 27

Thank you for posting, Douglaspoke. I still have a program from the 1972 ASU-Wyoming game that my brother gave me. A number of the ASU players from that team had long NFL careers so the talent level between the two squads was significant. Believe this is the game that prompted the comment from the l...

Re: Dalton, James, Marshall, Moemeka, Conway suspended

In the early 80's before Dembo, Wyoming had two basketball players that were regulars at the bars during the season. Jim Renner was 7' and Mark Getty was 6' 10" so you couldn't miss them when they were present. Renner liked to drink two fisted, with a pitcher in both hands. Grades caught up wit...
