Linder on Grigsby
We’re excited for John Grigsby to join the Cowboy program. John’s combination of size and shooting ability will be a welcome addition to the roster. At 6’9, John can really space the floor as a three-point shooting threat and he has the frame and athleticism to rebound and bang down low. We appreciate the character and values that John brings to the program. After coaching his older brother, Roy at Northern Colorado for two years, we developed a great relationship with John and his family. We’re happy to welcome John to Laramie.
