Re: Should Craig Bohl be the highest paid coach in the MWC?

I don't think you guys understand. If we "throw the bank" at Bohl we're going to have university staff "literally crying" over their newspaper.:)

Re: SDSU

If Wyoming and SDSU can both take care of business, I think the conference championship game will garner quite a bit of national interest because there will be so many story lines. Hill vs. Pumphrey (especially if they both have big games in the first matchup); two teams playing each other within tw...

Re: Trying to be COMPLETELY objective...

Speaking of Austin Conway, I can see him in the next couple of years becoming a player comparable to Warrick Dunn of SDSU and Tampa Bay Buccaneers fame.

Re: Hill as a receiver

This is biased thinking on my part, but I heard somewhere that this is expected to be a RB deep draft year, so it might be to his advantage to stay one more. However, if he's projected as a 3-5 round pick. That would be hard to pass up.

Hill as a receiver

This isn't a complaint, but a question. I don't ever remember seeing Brian Hill receive a pass. Do we not have anything in the playbook where he catches the ball out of the backfield?

Re: Tevis Bartlett

Not a friend or family, however, I did read where he met Peterson through a camp ( I think) and really liked him. In fact, I think Washington came into the recruiting process late and because Bartlett thought so highly of Peterson was receptive to them. Also, it looks likes Washington will most like...

Re: Will UW athletics push for a sell-out this week?

This weekend is parents weekend, so there will be a lot of extra people on campus. There are a bunch of "parents" activities on Saturday and Sunday, plus if they register for those activities for $70 each, then they can get a football ticket for $32 each which allows the parents to sit wit...

Re: I guess winning can't fix stupid

I hope I'm not jumping the gun here, but most if not all of the bowls provide players with some pretty good swag. If /when Wyoming goes to a bowl this year, I invite the boomerang/WTE to detail the "gifts" the players receive. It usually totals in the hundreds for each player. That'll real...

Re: Wyoming facing questions about football reclassification

Maybe in the future when the CST or WTE dusts off the annual Wyoming Football reclassification article we could counter with a rousing discussion of how many newspapers, including those in Wyoming, are going under and are on the verge of collapse. I'm sure between this and the other board we could p...

Re: Wyoming facing questions about football reclassification

I thought there was a attendance average that had to be maintained to be FBS, something over 15k, etc???? There used to be an attendance requirement 5-10 years ago requiring an average of 17,000 a year, I believe. As for the yearly reclassification article from the CST, until Wyoming enjoys the succ...

Re: 5 Things I Think- Week 2 Edition [Wyonation Blog]

There were a few mistakes in coverage (open receivers) that I saw which Coach Bohl will be all over getting corrected this week. They are easily corrected. Also the penalties will probably be far fewer - I'm pretty sure we had over 100 yards in penalties. Those two things will help. A lot of it was...

Not sure if the Boomerang article is similar to this -- I assume it is -- this was in the Wyoming Tribune-Eagle today.
