LARAMIE -- Craig Bohl is hanging up his spurs after 10 years on the sidelines in Laramie and more than four decades in the coaching profession.

He will be remembered for many things during his time on the high plains, loyalty, right near the top.

Bohl graduated his players. He valued the walk-on program. He loved the locals, giving in-state products a shot at their dream school. Back in 2016, Bohl and his Cowboys not only made the Mountain West title game, they hosted it. Unfortunately, a narrow loss to San Diego State followed.

He never made it back.

University of Wyoming’s Top 50 Football Players

During the summer of 2021, 7220Sports.com counted down the Top 50 football players in University of Wyoming history, presented by Premier Bone & Joint Centers, Worthy of Wyoming.

The rules are simple: What was the player's impact while in Laramie? That means NFL stats, draft status or any other accolade earned outside of UW is irrelevant when it comes to this list.

This isn't a one-man job. This task called for a panel of experts. Joining 7220's Cody Tucker are Robert GagliardiJared NewlandRyan Thorburn, and Kevin McKinney.

We all compiled our own list of 50 and let computer averages do the work. Think BCS -- only we hope this catalog is fairer.
