Mike Daum

So I see CBS lists Mike Daum of Kimball, Neb. (son of former UW football and basketball players Mitch Daum and Michelle Hoppes) as South Dakota State's best player, or one of the best. Anyone remember if UW made an offer to him or not? He's listed as a redshirt-Freshman.

Re: WALKON SUMMARY

Some of the coolest videos on youtube are when a walk on is told they are putting him on scholarship. I can't remember what school it was, but there's one where the team is practicing onside kicks. The ball had a paper rubber banded to hit. The kicker kicked it to a kid on the receiving side of the ...

Re: Different Year, exact same argument

Bottom line is: Bohl went 4-8 in 2014, and 2-10 in 2015. Expectations and aspirations are still high. Dreams of conference titles and national relevancy. This is year #3. All I'm saying is, recruiting arguments aside...if this team doesn't go at least 5-7 in 2016, AT LEAST....I'll begin to wonder if...

Re: WTE weighs in Mead's proposal for UW athletics

I realize that the article is mostly directed at football, but I like how they conveniently don't mention basketball and how money provided to athletics has been successfully utilized for that sport.

Re: NM State Game

What's with the chain smoker commentator? He sounds like a horse kicked him in the throat He sounds like if Harry Caray smoked 2 packs a day. I knew Pat Knapp when he was a coach. I don't know if something else is going on, but when he was a coach he was quite the screamer; non-stop at the top of h...

Re: Pokes fans are delusional

I have been following the Pokes since 2003 when I moved from ND to Cheyenne. First year they get a brand new coach, one who I was very familiar with from his d2 days at Northern Colorado. Wyo fans were all excited, first year goes 4-8, next year they beat a SEC team and win the LV bowl and omg Glen...

Two examples of high academic schools that benefited from good athletics is the University of Miami and Georgetown. Both schools provided high academic programs that no one knew about.

Re: Gags/Holmgren....what's it going to take to start

As a point of clarification, App State is no longer FCS. They are a member of the Sun Belt Conference and FBS. "Part of newsworthiness is reality. How many people are clicking on the link to find out about our new walk-on wide receiver(although he is from Cheyenne and may turn out to be one hel...

Re: A Most Important Topic

This isn't anything new, the state's done it for years. The comments attached to the article, and especially those on t...

Re: The argument to end the drop to FCS argument

The only people I've ever had a discussion with concerning Wyoming dropping to FCS are mostly originally from Montana or South Dakota, which makes me think that it's part of a jealousy thing. They hate that our poor little state is playing against the big boys and even experiencing a few bowl games ...

Re: OT: Bama safety's mom talks about the draft

I think you guys are being exceptionally hard on "Mom." After all, she does now have to wait a whole extra year for her new Mercedes and/or house. That's probably a whole extra year of cleaning toilets for her.

Re: I wouldn't be surprised if one of our 6'4" quarterbacks

I know its been a while, but I seem to remember the same type banter with Gonzaga fans the same year we beat them. Then they cried about how they were disrespected by the NCAA and should have gotten a higher seed so they shouldn't have had to play us. Also, I don't watch Sportscenter every night, bu...
