LARAMIE -- There are only a few position battles for starting jobs this fall.

Can Keany Parks become the No. 2 cornerback, playing alongside Tyrecus Davis? Will it be Jake Davies or Nate Geiger lining up at left tackle and protecting Evan Svoboda's backside? Will Connor Shay, a linebacker who has been in the program for four years, finally land the gig and take over for Shae Suiaunoa on the outside? Cole DeMarzo and Evan Eller will have their say in the matter.

Cody Tucker and Jared Newland break it all down in the latest Roaring Repeater Podcast. You can find the latest episode right HERE.

What has stood out to us through six practices?

Well, it appears true freshman wide receiver Chris Durr Jr. is the real deal. Not only did he snag a team-best 12 catches for 121 yards in the annual spring game, he also decided to put on 20-plus pounds this offseason. His name has rolled off the tongue of nearly everyone in the building this offseason.

Dawaiian McNeely isn't quite ready to gallop. Jay Sawvel said he won't insert him into the lineup until he is 100% healthy. He is coming off a torn left ACL that cost him the entire 2023 campaign. With backs like Harrison Waylee, DJ Jones, Sam Scott and Jamari Ferrell in the stable, why rush things? Wyoming's rookie head coach won't.

With Gavin Meyer now suiting up at USC, the defensive tackles room just got a whole lot younger. Aaron Bohl, the Cowboys first-year defensive coordinator, doesn't seem to mind, saying the potential and talent is there, it just hasn't been displayed. Here's your big chance Jaden Williams and Jayden Williams.

We also chat about Wyoming's Week 1 opponent Arizona State and take an early look at the potential roster the Pokes will be facing in the desert in just 25 short days.
