Henry, Agbim, Ebube and Nesbitt formally introduced today. I believe that leaves us with 3 open schollies. Kenny Foster would be a tremendous help to this roster next year. https://gowyo.com/news/2024/5/24/mens-basketball-wicks-announces-addition-of-four-cowboys-to-roster-for-2024-25.aspx?fbclid=Iw...

This is a step in the right direction in my opinion. I haven't really kept up with all these lawsuits, so I'm not sure why this change just applies to Power 5 schools. I would assume Group of 5 conferences will follow suit? P4 conferences have signed onto the settlement agreement. No G5 conferences...

This is likely the game changer. Schools can now directly pay players “above the table”. https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/other/ncaa-power-5-agree-to-deal-that-will-let-schools-pay-players/ar-BB1mWOJo This is a step in the right direction in my opinion. I haven't really kept up with all these lawsu...

I wonder if anyone will do a public records request for the contract details. Anyone can do it - it's very easy. Just send an email to publicrecords@uwyo.edu letting them know which records you are requesting. UW will acknowledge the receipt of your request within 7 business days. In my experience,...

Just read an article about Rasada the QB who is suing Florida for more than $13.8 Million because they reneged on his NIL deal. According to the story Florida got him to decommit from Miami who had promised a $9 + Million deal. He is now at Georgia following a season at ASU. No doubt there were NIL...

He was highly recruited coming out of high school. Top 100 in the nation with 10+ offers from high major programs all around the country. He originally committed to Penny Hardaway and Memphis. He was only able to play half a season with them. It's not clear to me why this was the case, but I suspect...

Wyoming signs 2 senior transfers. Forward Cole Henry from Northern Iowa. Guard Jordan Nesbitt from Hampton via Saint Louis. I recognized the name Jordan Nesbitt and couldn't figure out why. Then I remembered...he made the rounds on the sports news media platforms in 2022 for calling the opposing te...

I was hoping he would be retained as well - maybe he and Sundance didn't jive when here together. That and I’m also wondering if Linder didn’t line something up at Texas Tech for DeWeese. Linder’s timing can’t be overstated. He f***ed us so hard for next year. Retaining DeWeese probably would have ...

Something that might be getting overlooked is how Svboda was recruited. He was like 3rd string on a JUCO team. If he hits, that's some seriously good scouting or just damn lucky. Svoboda was set to attend UW as a preferred walk on out of high school. Then the pandemic hit and he decided to go to Sn...

Texas also passed a law banning DEI departments/initiatives at public universities in the state. At UT Austin, a much more liberal university than UW, they actually saw an increase in applications the year after the law was passed. That appears mostly to be from a bump in applications from students ...

Was there ever an official statement from UW reporting Linder’s resignation? The whole thing is bizarre. No statement from UW. No statement from Linder. Just an out of the blue news report one day that he is going to be an assistant at Texas Tech. I would love to know how all of this actually went d...

What about Eric Henderson at South Dakota State? He has been outstanding there. In his five seasons there, he has won the conference four times and finished 2nd in the lone season they didn't win it. He has guided the team to the NCAA Tournament twice. It looks like he received an extension in 2021 ...

https://7220sports.com/who-should-replace-linder-at-wyoming-here-are-some-ideas/ 7220 already up with some reporting on possible candidates, including some who are reported to be interested in the job. Steve McClain is one. So is... Doug Gottlieb? I was attending UW and working part-time as a barte...

https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/sec-big-ten-developing-plan-to-share-revenue-with-players-in-potential-landmark-change-to-college-athletics/ I'm sure everyone saw this but if not, revenue sharing is happening. My guess is p4 split and g5 shares go to players. They'll have to come up...

Gavin Meyer to hit the transfer portal. I don’t understand that one. This is pure speculation, but could be more than just money/football at play with this transfer. Since he has already graduated, maybe he is looking for a specific postgrad program that UW doesn't offer? He is a good football play...

Rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic. When the AD gets serious about rebuilding the program, call me. 1. Fire Linder 2. Hire a coach from outside a 100-mile radius of campus and that the current AD is not buddies with a. Hire a coach that isn't a jackass b. Hire a coach that players want to play ...

I’m not the smartest man, but I know it’s easier to slip on a wet surface than a dry one. And slipping risks injury. If you need stats to tell you that slick surfaces are more dangerous, than there isn’t much to talk about. On a hard surface like cement or wood, I would definitely agree. However, o...

Seems like a good pickup. In his career he's a 50/36/70 shooter. Efficient player. Might be the best we can realistically hope for in a D1 transfer. I think he can contribute. Out of curiosity, I was looking at what happened with the players that were named first team all-Summit league this past se...

People upset that game was canceled because of weather is really bizarre. It’s spring, no need to even risk anything. For the most part, I agree with what you are saying. A couple thoughts: 1) The Wyoming coaching staff thought the Spring Game was important enough that they rescheduled it. If it wa...

I like this pick-up.
