I see Ian posted already

Damasjha Harris 6’2 220lbs. Big back

and they spent quite a bit of time talking about Josh, from his recruitment to today. If you can find it, it's a good listen.

If this passes for the state of Wyoming how exactly will it work, what will it mean for the state's schools and athletes?

I normally don’t watch much nba basketball during the regular season but watching these guys play in the playoffs there so talented.

Haven't heard a word, or seen anything regarding an update on the renovations that should be completed this summer.

Anyone got anything out there?
