Sundance Wicks, previously the head coach at UW-Green Bay, has been appointed as the new head coach for the University of Wyoming's basketball team. Wicks, who is originally from Wyoming and served as an assistant coach at the university from 2020 to 2023, has signed a five-year contract with the school. His hiring follows a notable tenure at UW-Green Bay where he led a significant turnaround. Wicks replaces Jeff Linder, who has moved to Texas Tech as a top assistant.
