WT Football

Little scoop from a CSUP "insider" (no secret that a former player of mine/family friend coaches there)....CSUP had a phenomenal day. WT might be in trouble this year unless they somehow get impact players.

Good to hear, appreciate the update.

…WT might be in trouble this year unless they somehow get impact players.

MIGHT BE? Unfortunately that’s a safe bet.

[ASUPops]

I’m glad you are safe.

I second that.

Was the scrimmage in Pueblo so bad there are no updates on it? Curious how it went.

We made it to Pueblo. Unprepared with a medium jacket, the temp was 45 and wind 20-30 gust to 40. Too freaking cold. Next day's drive to Durango caught in April snowstorm. No way making it in my wheelchair van turned around outside Walsenburg and detoured to Santa Fe. A clusterfk. Hence, no report from me.

Ah yes, that lovely Pueblo wind. Hope it was a fun trip despite the change of plans.

He coached back in the day when WT was recruiting ballers, not necessarily students. If you're going to win in college football, you'd better be able to recruit ballers. This isn't Stanford.

Hunter Hughes was required to recruit actual students; Lynn may be the same. Pick your poison.

There is no poison to pick anymore especially with NIL. If you want to win LSC championships and beyond you have to recruit talent at the expense of possible 2.5 GPA. If you want true student athletes then D3 is going to be the model. If not do what Sul Ross and Western Oregon is doing and politely ask for a$$ kickings from Incarnate Word and ACU to supplement that athletics budget. Problem is WT is doing neither right now in my view in football.

As he should be. There wouldnt be a WT fan on this board or many in the "real world" past, present, and future without him.

BuffaloChip Were you able to make the scrimmage against CSU-P?

[BuffaloChip]

I'm heading up to Pueblo tomorrow to watch the WT scrimmage. Day 1 of an 8 day trip. I'll put my take on here.

I think Greek is ahead on the depth chart as Spring wraps up so Sampson might be in the portal agian. I imagine they will use "Fats" as a wildcat guy
