Re: Stanford for a chance to go 2-1 vs. Pac 12 this season...

I won’t be surprised if Ike enters the transfer portal after this year. Guaranteed a bunch of big schools will be recruiting him. I do not think so. Linder is a good coach and Ike is a good man. The two have a great relationship. Coach - player relationship is by far the biggest factor still imo Ag...

Re: Stanford for a chance to go 2-1 vs. Pac 12 this season...

Holy over-reaction Batman! This thread went a little far. Dang. We lose a 50/50 game on a neutral court to a lower half PAC-12 team and all of a sudden we suck and Ike is going to transfer? Tough crowd. Pokes were never a NCAA or top tier MWC team this year, we are a couple of pieces away. However, ...

Re: Before the season started, if I would have told you we would be 9-1 going into a 10 day break before Stanford...

How would you have responded? It seems like we've exceeded expectations so far. Currently we sit with a Net rating of 21, which would get us in the dance as an at large if the tournament started today. I'm really happy with certain things we're doing: 1. We're rebounding. This is a team effort but ...

I was looking at our roster and wondering: who's giving up their scholarship for Caden Powell? The Big Shamrock has played about 5 minutes this year, so I wonder if it's him. Hunter Thompson has graduated so maybe he decides it's time to call it quits on Wyoming. Maybe it's neither of them and some...

Re: UW @ U of A

Re: Year 2 of Jeff Linder and company starts now....

Those scrimmages are a secret for a reason. Coaches play everyone, try different combinations, experiment with strategies. It's not like they play the starting 5 for 30 minutes. A team like Utah (i.e. more depth) probably should beat us in a closed door scrimmage. Why would Utah have more depth? I ...

Re: Muma not gonna be here next year.

Considering he's a senior, it'd take a season ending injury in the next couple of weeks for him to even have a chance of coming back next year. But yeah, he's going to make an NFL defense somewhere very happy. Due to the Covid year, he actually does have one more year of eligibility if he wanted to...

Re: Drew LaMont: 4th Linder Commit

These recruits seem like good shooters. Which will help if they can translate to D1 competition. We still need to get a couple of bigs down low. So far these recruits from Linder, while they may be able to shoot, still seem along the lines of Edwards with a bunch of guards and wings and no big men ...

Re: We need a couple bigs desperately!

You have to keep in mind a couple of items: 1. We have (6) scholarships to fill now and it could be as high as (8) before it is said and done. Plenty of room for the D2 transfer and another big. 2. You should listen to some of Linder’s interviews. He wants shooters at all positions and he is very wi...

Re: Trace Young

JuCo. Is there any doubt now that something off the court was going on here? Yes. If he could play, someone would take a chance on him. Fact is, he couldn't get playing time on one of the worst teams in all of D1 basketball. He didn't rebound, didn't defend, couldn't pass, and shot a low percentage...

Well some of you got your wish! Legerski retires. I’d like to be optimistic but the likely reality is that the women’s program likely takes a huge step back. Almost certainly going to take a step back. We will likely never see a coach at UW again in any sport that combines that type of success on t...

Re: Everyone giving up?

I think we need to make a run at Scott Nagy. I have always liked him. He has a good record, and lots of tread left on the tires that I think he could turn around this dumpster fire, and have sustained success after the turnaround. We need a home run hire,band I think he could be it. Missed our chan...

Last week I was talking with one of the head coaches in high school bball in Wyoming whom coached Hunter T. I can guess you all know whom/from where. He and his wife are from around our area and were visiting family. He said that Edwards is not a very personable coach either. Hunter was THIS close ...

Re: South Carolina -4.5?

Came down to Hendricks hitting 3's unlike the last 2 games. If he is off we become very easy to defend. It also came down to SC shooting. Not sure if we played great defense or they were just had a awful night. I am still cautiously optimistic about this team if they continue to gel and get better ...

Just hoping that there is someone who can shoot the three on the team. We have sorely missed this since the Sean Ogirri days. Any idea if next Thursday’s game will be aired? McManimal shot a higher % than Ogirri ever did. I would say Dalton was a solid shooter his Senior year as well (over 40%) Now...

Either Dung is standing on his textbooks or he's grown 3 inches since they measured him last. Him and JJ being listed the same height while standing next to each other there is kinda funny No kidding. Dung is much closer to Thompson than JJ in size. Probably should be listed at 6’8” 215 or so. JJ i...
