This school and fan base were starved for success, in particular a conference championship, and they delivered. We set the bar high a lot, and rarely are those expectations met. We set the bar at NCAA Tournament berth, and this group accomplished that. Despite several unlucky bumps in the road....MW Champs, NCAA Tournament berth. Larry Nance Jr. has etched his name into a Wyo basketball folklore. The future is bright for this program. The facilities and support are in place to keep this train moving. We will not wait another 13 years to go to the dance again.
Give it up for these Pokes! Thanks for the memories!
Thank you, Cowboys!

No doubt. Helluva ride. We owe our future success to this senior class. Nothing but heart, just were over matched. Love the fight, loved the resolve, we will miss these guys.

LOVED THESE COWBOYS!!!! They will be missed. Thanks to everyone for their amazing efforts over the years. Some favorites that will be hard to be replaced for sure. Some legendary Pokes played for this team. All champs in my book. Good luck on your futures seniors whatever you do.
Riding High!!!

Thank you Cowboys.
This has been a fun first year here. You turned me from a fan who originally came to WyoNation in support of Craig Bohl, but it really wasn't until basketball season until I turned into a full-fledged Wyoming Cowboy fan.
I've got an order of Wyoming Cowboy apparel coming in the mail, and I can't wait to show my support for UW around Minnesota.

Thank you Cowboys. I'm proud to be a fan of this great group. It's been a hell of a ride.
What is the difference between politicians and stoners? Politicians don't inhale...they just suck.

It was soooo awesome to see Wyoming win a conference title, to see their name pop up on the screen during selection Sunday, and to watch them play a tournament game. Granted, the outcome wasn't what we wanted, but it was a great season. We need a couple of shooters and some depth, but hopefully the foundation has been laid for a terrific future. I will miss Nance...one of my all-time favorite Cowboys. I doubt I will be on here much until the fall. So have a great summer, fellow Cowboy fans. We'll reconvene in the fall to overreact to losses, get too high over wins and call each other names for seven months. Go Pokes!

A big THANK YOU to the entire team! This was a year that we've been waiting for for a long time. This senior class came into a program that was one of the worst in the country and helped turn it into a conference and national power. They've set the bar high, and I have complete faith that the guys that will follow in their footsteps will continue our upward trend!
Bohl deserves time. Shyatt didn't do this overnight. Making it big in football is x50 harder than doing it in basketball.Adv8RU12 wrote:Fine season. Seniors - thank you.
Now, on to football. Bohl. Can you match the basketball season? Try.
Try real hard. OK? We will be watching.
The future is bright for this program. I like the incoming talent and momentum going into next fall. It may be difficult to get back to the dance right away, but I think 20+ win seasons will become the norm in Laramie. Fingers crossed.
Now...let's get some top-notch opponents on that OOC schedule!

Thank you Pokes for being you! You brought home the Conference Title and gave us hope for future teams with your unselfishness, team work, and toughness!
