Interesting Sports Illustrated Story about Bohl and Wyoming
Read the story. Two questions.
1. Is Bohls wife that dumb that she really says this stuff? Or he trying to be folksy and makes her look dumb?
2. What AD makes the comment that he can't believe someone pays money to watch girls bb? ( forget our team stuff. Even Gene would never say this)
In this day and age :facepalm:, I wouldn't be going out on a limb to say that quote is dangerous.Quote:
"I'm pretty sure that on our first day of workouts, at least half the team threw up," said Dominic Rufran
Also, did anyone else think the women's basketball quote was weird?
Who cares!!!!!
Good article on him and Wyo.
Hope he does well.
Another article about Wyoming's new coach and the timing of his decision to move to the FBS.

Meh..... Bohl can go pound sand.
Top 15 program in 5 years? They will be lucky to have 15 wins in 5 years.

Article was pro ndsu and our system. It should show gene and Dean that ndsu belongs in mountain west.
per the article
"Bohl's system is "scary similar" to what Osborne did at Nebraska"
That is not pro NDSU, that says NDSU aint crap without Bohl's system. It blows my mind how you read what you want to read Lakes and ignore the obvious.
I always thought his smile was too genuine after the KState win. This just tells us he was smiling because he could chase his dream. He has 3 decent years in Wyoming and he is gone. Best of luck to him, still wish he wouldve left after the Furman game.
I disagree, he ain't gonna beat PAC12 teams for recruits, and I don't see him beating Boise for recruits. sorry but Laramie is a hard place to recruit top talent to...
maybe I'm wrong but I really don't care either he ain't here so whatever. I know I haven't watched a Wyoming game my entire life and I still wont
What annoys my about the article is when Bohl said "if you can recruit Fargo, you can recruit anywhere."
To me that's bullshit. Were super close to Minneapolis which is loaded with talent. West of MPLS, were one of the largest metros in the midwest. It's always been that way. It's not tough at all to recruit players like Grant Olson, Marcus Williams, and Cole Jirik being that close to home, especially since they get passed over by the Gophers and watch us beat them.
What's tough is recruiting kids from warm weather climate to come here. Thats why we stick to the midwest footprint
To Fargo community has to be slightly tough especially to the minorities. To NDSU I think is a bit easier though. Really I love Fargo and NDSU but other than the last 5-10 years it really hasn't been on anyone's radar too much. The good thing is NDSU has a big alumni group in Twin Cities and that helps with the recognition. Wyoming has to have a fairly large following too I imagine in the Denver area though? That to me would be the target area is Denver and northern colorado area.
I dunno. The midwest in general is very white. Heck the twin cities is only 6% African American, Lawrence and Manhattan Kansas are 5%, and Fargo Moorhead is 3%. Green Bay is 1%
Omaha is 15%. Iowa as a state is 3% with Desmoines being the most diverse at 10%
Laramie is less than 1% and it's small
I think the culture shock may be a little different if your coming from say Florida or the south east, but in general midwest kids are used to all us crazy white folks :)
I think the weather may be a bigger shock. Imagine coming from an area down south where it's warm and half the population is African American. Tons of white folks everywhere and it's cold :rofl: Trying to put myself in those shoes and it would be tough.
Honestly I think people up here are so NICE minorities seek through it. Besides ndsu campus and the FM metro is more entertaining than most people realize but I get why the perception is the way it is
Think about our last few posters and this one. I think this poster is telling...
@wyoathletics: Hey @wyo_football fans! Check out this year's poster for the #NewBohlEra! #gowyo http://t.co/Cn787uFFcI
So, assuming on an equal coaching level (assuming Bohl at Both), who would have the better program in the MWC? Wyoming (at thier current 85 scholarship level) or NDSU (at 85 scholarships)? Would NDSU be better than Wyo as a program in the MWC?

Bellevue West wide receiver CJ Johnson committed to Wyoming and the former Nebraska defensive coordinator who coaches them. Bohl, fresh off winning three national titles at North Dakota State, has made a push to offer Nebraska players. Johnson was the first to accept.
Johnson, a three-star prospect according to Rivals, plans on coaxing more local prospects to do the same.
“They’re a great coaching staff, as you can see by how well they did at North Dakota State,” Johnson said Wednesday.
Kid knows about NDSU!! , was #2 prospect in Nebraska.
That poster had the team behind Bohl. Here is another poster: http://t.co/Svm3NYPCCJ
Once again telling. Our posters are of players. Theirs? Coaches.
I see what they are doing...
Craig who? Meh...............
A group of us went whitewater rafting in Colorado on the 4th. Our guide had a Cowboys bucking horse logo on his helmet and was a Wyoming grad. I asked him if he was a football fan. He was, so I asked how he was feeling about their new coach. He was excited and then asked a bit about NDSU football. It turns out his mom's family is from Bismarck.
