Coach Bohl thank you for bringing a Wyoming Cowboy tough mentality back and your integrity to developing young boys into men on and off the field. Gid bless you in your future endeavors.

Thank you, Coach Bohl. You are the greatest Wyoming head coach (that I ever saw) in history. Wish we would have won the conference championship, but hey, thank you, and good luck rest of your life.

Wish the fbs had a 12+ playoff just to see what coach could have done. There were some great Wyoming teams I feel could have made a run. Bohls resume is underrated 🇺🇸🤘🇺🇸

@@MagaKoz I agree man wished that 12+ playoffs were started 5-10 years ago

[@paulburgess5111]

Great Coach. You will be missed.

Once a Bison always a Bison 🇺🇸🤘🇺🇸. going to be weird not seeing coach Bohl on any sideline. 21 years of underrated success. Happy he went out with a win at both schools.

Thank You Coach

[@bobpeterson4930]

Thank you for getting the microphone to the reporters . . . should be that way at every media conference!!! Congratulations to Jay and Craig! Would like to have seen two separate Media Conferences - one announcing Bohl's retirement and one announcing Burman's hire of Sawvel. Jay deserves his own special day. In contrast, CSU set a huge example of professionalism with their media announcement of Jay Norvell (which can be viewed on youtube).

[@rickpeart4907]

Ummm...big difference. Norvell wasn't hired and announced as the head coach on the same day CSU FIRED Addazio. Really completely different situations all the way around. Tying to imply this wasn't "professional" is just plain stupid and ignorant.
