Recruitment HQ: Pokes add five more to 2020 class
LARAMIE -- Craig Bohl and the Wyoming football team added 19 new faces to the program during the early singing period in late December.
Bohl said the Cowboys could add up to six more pieces before Feb. 5, the traditional day when high school players across the country have their final opportunity to sign letters of intent.
So far, five more names have been added to the list and are expected to sign on the dotted line Wednesday morning.
