Re: Social Media

Hopefully, Kevin McKinney of someone within the Athletics Dept. is giving the basketball team a lesson in public relations. Sometimes there are things you need to address and respond to. An example might be if someone is falsely posting that Player X is constantly beating his girlfriend. Something l...

ASU Curtain of Distraction

Re: call me crazy, but I think today is a great day to be a

I hope you're right about this being a great day to be a Poke. However, SDSU is an excellent defensive team, they are long and athletic. I think our only hope is for us to set a ton of screens with quick ball movement to open up guys like Grabau, Leiberman and Gorski. Kind of like Bobby Knght used t...

Re: Jerry Tarkanian

Having met both Tark and his wife, Lois, personally, I can say they are tremendous individuals and I hope these reports are untrue and Tark is in good health. I can't speak about $100 bills, but I can say he's a helluva nice guy.

Re: Student section

As a proud member of the Freezer Section I can tell you we were pretty damn creative. So much so that Frank Arnold coach of BYU called us "despicable." Of course we turned that into a battle cry. BYU would come onto the floor and we would all chant "We're Despicable," started at ...

Re: Student section

If I were Shyatt and anyone involved with the basketball program, this whole thing would piss me off -- as a fan it pisses me off -- why wouldn't you want the crowd to be rowdy and engaged in the game. You want the crowd to impact the game, if possible. Its supposed to be the Dome of Doom, not the D...

Re: Craig Neal

As a former coach Kansas, here's a question. I as the UNM coach with a 3-point lead and 14 seconds left and Wyoming taking the ball out after a made basket I would have pressured Wyoming on the inbounds as well as all the way up the court hoping to run 6-7 seconds off the clock, then fouled in the b...

Re: SDSU @ 25Wyoming

Someone else mentioned that there are too many times all five players are outside the arc on offense. I've noticed that also, especially during the past two games. I hate to admit it, but there are times this year's team is starting to look like a Benny Dees coached team. People standing around outs...

Re: Tevis

I agree with Ragtime 100 percent. I find is funny people are complaining that he didn't choose Wyoming then turn around and say he will fail at Washington because he is. I'm not saying Bartlett is the next Brian Urlacher, but Urlacher grew up in Podunk, New Mexico and he had a sterling NFL career. A...

I was planning on taking my elderly parents to the New Year's Eve UNLV game. They want to see how the remodeled AA looks. However, if we're going to be hassled every time we go to the restroom or to get a dog. We may need to rethink those plans. I understand checking tickets to the reserved season t...

Re: Why Wyoming basketball will underachieve this year

All good points. I didn't mean to imply that I thought we had a curse on us. Cowboy Curse just seemed to fit better in a rhythmic headline sort of way than Snakebit Cowboys or Cowboy Bad Luck if you get my drift. And, yes, I do plan to jump aboard the hype train, but with cautious optimism. I wish I...

Re: Teams that can overachieve in 2014-15

There is a danger in getting TOO hyped up about the prospects of a coming season. There is a big letdown when things don't work out. If you have been on this forum for very long you have seen it. The one thing questioning the basketball season is Larry Nance. The problem being that he hasn't played...

Why Wyoming basketball will underachieve this year

Let me preface this by saying that I'm not usually a doom and gloom guy. I guess the best description right now is that I've become a calloused Wyoming fan. I hope I'm wrong, but here's why I think we will once again be a disappointed fan base come January or February. 1. Cowboy Curse - It always se...
