Re: So close! Again..

We are pretty close, but there are some very specific things that I can point out that could really help. 1.)Our bench is really weak. For all the hope I have in Shyatt and his program and vision, that is one area that I still get really worried about, having depth on the team. 2.)Turnovers-I don't ...

Re: WYO @ UNLV

It does suck to lose so many of these close games, and I do think that this team is playing a little below it's level by not winning these close ones, but the program has improved from a year ago. And maybe they haven't improved as much as some of you guys would like, I want them competing for champ...

Re: WYO @ UNLV

I've been away from Wyoming for a while now, so I don't know if it has changed, but when I was there, if you got your internet from Qwest, you just plain and simple couldn't watch live streams from ESPN, no matter what they called their station. There were other ISPs that were common in Wyoming that...

Re: Too early for optimism?

I'm also not buying that we're championship ready next year either. To put some things into perspective, our last championship team starting line-up was Straight, D Richardson, Bailey, Davis, and Uche. Does any of our current players even make the starting lineup if they were on that team? Even thou...

Re: Too early for optimism?

Oh I'm buying in. We're clearly moving in the right direction. Our defense is why teams have bad games against us. Our shooting has improved. I don't think any of our conference wins were lucky, and I don't believe that we were lucky to be in so many games either. I just don't believe we finish top ...

Re: Too early for optimism?

Maybe it's just the Cubs fan in me, but I think it is too early for optimism still. I agree that our last stretch of schedule looks favorable and the home games especially look winnable, but I honestly don't trust this team to win all the games it could or even should be able to win. I think a lot o...

Was Just Thinking about Fennis Dembo the other day

and about how he would've been entertaining in today's college basketball scene. I don't necessarily mean on the court (although I'm sure he would've been fine there too), but I mean on social media and other online platforms. Just about how twitter and online journalism added a little edginess to o...

Re: So did Brett not get a combine invite?

I wish Brett Smith the best, but I thought his decision to declare for the draft was a bad idea from the start and felt that he better be sure that he could go in rounds 2-4 to make it worth his while, and despite what his "people" told him, I was always skeptical that he could right now. ...

Am I wanting too much from this team?

After that 4 game winning streak, which included a couple of road games and games where they came back from some deficits, I thought that maybe the program had taken 2 or 3 steps forward. I also felt that finishing 3rd, or maybe even 2nd in the conference could be possible. The thing is, I think tha...

Re: Wyo picks up a QB

Just watched his high school highlight reel, and let me just say that this guy is huge. Without even getting the chance to work with our trainers, he is only 1 inch shorter and only 25 lbs lighter than Ben Roethlisberger. And although he isn't terribly speedy, he is physical enough that he'll be har...

Re: Reno sports writers' best 10 mwc players

Nance is having himself a heck of a year and is contributing in so many areas of the game, but the plain and simple truth is that he isn't scoring enough to beat out some of those other guys who would be candidates for MW POY. 1.)Burton-I don't honestly think he's the best player in the league, but ...

Re: Nevada @ Wyo

Pretty good finish to the game. Adams drive to tie it in regulation was surreal, and Nance! It was an ugly looking drive to the hoop and I thought it was going to be a disaster, but the shot itself was pretty! I honestly don't remember the last time we had a 4 game conference winning streak. It's go...

Re: Uniforms-First Time Poster

I also forgot to mention the flag helmet decals. I felt they were nice ideas, and they would make cool logos for avatars, T-shirts, and other Cowboy apparel, but I'm done with them on the official unis. The Wyoming flag especially is kind of a complicated design with a lot going on in it, and combin...

Re: Uniforms-First Time Poster

I'm not so old-timey that I'm adverse to uniform changes, but here is what I'm after: 1.We really only need one combo for home, one away, and one alternative per season. If you wanna change them year after year, fine, but it's just silly to have more for a single season. 2.I'm personally fond of bro...

Re: Why I love BYU not being in the MWC

They just lost to Portland in triple OT tonight. It doesn't matter what conference you are in in college hoops, you are going to lose some conference games. And BYU just lost to a nobody team, the Portland Pilots. I love that BYU is losing to teams like Portland, and not beating teams like NM and S...

Keep in mind that Highlight Videos are just that.....Highlights. There is a reason Colleges DO NOT use them as recruiting tools. Absolutely, but I do keep that in mind when I watch the videos.

Bohl already has a plan. I imagine that he knew about both Smith and JT leaving well before we ever heard it. And I'm thinking he's probably been in contact with quite a few potential recruits under our noses for longer than we've been expecting. And while he is inheriting a team with a sticky situa...

Keaton studsrud. He's better be on our radar. Cold weather kid from minnesota.
Just watched his highlight video and I'd honestly be ok with him too. Are either he or Chris Little actually likely to come here, or is this just rumors to pass the time?
