Recruiting House Rules

Spoiler

1. Can recruit from home state of Wyoming, regardless of initial interest level.

2. Can recruit from geographic area, pipeline state, or SPARQ Top 100 provided that my program is in said recruit's TOP 3 at the beginning of the season. Geographic area includes: ID, MT, UT, CO, ND, SD, NE.- - Aka Border States

3. Cannot target any 5-star recruits until after winning a major bowl (BCS, Rose, Fiesta, Sugar, Orange, Cotton, Peach all would count).

4. Can recruit maximum of 2 random players per year from anywhere in country provided that said recruits are not being pursued by any other programs (no scholarship offers, not on recruiting boards, and not receiving recruiting points to qualify) as of Week 6.

5. Cannot exceed roster limit of 70 players after recruiting class is completed, unless there will be corresponding cuts of walk-on, cpu generated players only.

6. One scholarship player will be cut each year for "academics." This player will be chosen based on lowest AWR attribute. Meaning, in the offseason at the cut player menu, the player with the lowest AWR will be cut regardless of any other attributes.

7. Everyone recruited must be redshirted.

8. Can only convince at most 2 players per year to stay

9. If we beat a power 5 top 15 ranked team in a bowl game, we can recruit two 4* recruits or one 5* recruit in their state the next year.

Coaching Progression

Spoiler

Starting as an LB coach. If a LB gets 10 sacks in a season or 5 interceptions, promote to LB and DE coach. Once the defense allows under 150 points a season, we promote to Defensive Coordinator. Then it's game on, just waiting for that HC job!

Wyoming hires new linebackers coach

AP: It's been an interesting year. But the Cowboys have decided to hire on a brand new coach at the linebackers position after Aaron Bohl was hired away!

Anyway, former linebacker Greg Burks from TCU has been chosen to replace Aaron Bohl.
Burks has his hands full, as Wyoming's linebacking corps is slightly depleted, but it should be alright. The Pokes are predicted to go 6-6 this year, expectations are low, and it should be just fine.



I will be the DC, but for playing purposes, just the LB coach for this season. Check the coaching progression rules in OP if confused

Those are some tuff stats to pull off especially with a program with Wyoming. Will be interesting to see how long it takes you to become a DC and HC.

Cowboys Schedule 2020
Wyoming's schedule looks spicey for 2020!
8-31: At #20 Utah
9-07: At Louisiana
9-21: At Air Force (MWC)
9-28: At BYU
10-05: Vs Ball State
10-12 Vs New Mexico
10-19 Vs Colorado State
10-26: At San Jose State
11-09: Vs Fresno State
11-16: At Boise State
11-23: vs Hawai'i
11-30: At Utah State

Schedule Analysis
Most experts consider Wyoming's schedule a solid C+. Obviously getting to travel to Utah twice to play former MWC and WAC members Utah and BYU is a treat, but also a challenge.
Starting with 4 road games is never easy, but Wyoming should come away 2-2 with wins over Louisiana and Ball State. If they can sneak one away from Utah or BYU, then we have some magic happening!

At Boise is never easy, and having a 4 week stretch of Fresno, Boise, Hawai'i, and very good potential CFB buster Utah State, especially at the end of the season is just begging for a rough time of it.

Ultimately Wyoming looks like a 6-6 bowling team, but we shall see where the chips fall.

Matchup Preview *|* August 31, 2020
	@
Wyoming Cowboys (0-0, 0-0 Away)		#20 Utah Utes (0-0, 0-0 Home)
Injury Report Game Notes It's Here! The 2020 Football season is finally here! It's not 1969, that's for sure. Utah comes into the year as dark horse national title contender, looking to improve off their 11-3 season where they were a win against Oregon away from a College Football Bowl Bid! Wyoming is trying to improve on their 8-5 season where they won the Arizona Bowl. Biggest battle in this game is linebackers for Wyoming. If middle linebacker Chad Muma can get on the board early, this could be fun. If not, Utah will sit back and pick apart Wyoming's secondary and totally run away with this and improve their lead in the series. Right now Utah leads 51-31-1 overall.
