Its not just because of the kind of final season Wylie had (career highs with 56 catches and 716 yards), but its also because of the fact that Wylie and Welker are nearly identical in size (both are at least 5-foot-9, 185 pounds) and the fact they play a [...] Read more »

The biggest coaching shakeup in 15 years here in Fresno took place on Sunday, and it now leaves Fresno State in a scramble to not only find the best hire, but also the right hire. Athletic Director Thomas Boeh made one thing clear when he announced the firing of Hill back on Sunday, he’s not looking for a “flashy” hire, but someone along the lines of Rodney Terry for men’s basketball.
