Nice find. Thanks for posting this BobAndWaldo.

What's the story behind the photo? Was this from a newspaper article?

I stopped by the WSU athletic department last week. The picture of the two quarterbacks is framed on the wall in Brad Larsen's office. The Payton trophy is also in his office. I recommend stopping by and taking a peek. He's got some really neat stuff in his office. He was out of the office when I was there last week. He was out for surgery on his shoulder. Don't know much about that but sounds like he should be ok.

That to bad for Brad. Heres to a speedy recovery. However, WHY THE HELL is the trophy in his office? That is a huge accomplishment for Jamie and the university. That should be somewhere where it can be seen by fans, boosters, students, sponsors, players, and recruits. WEBER NEEDS A TROPHY CASE. I'm glad that they can put pictures on the walls, but there needs to be more in the Stadium's entrance and at the Dee. Get the trophies and Awards out and into the open!! Also, Why is the Presidents Cup in one of the football suites. GOOD HELL Weber!?! These are huge accomplishments they need to be seen and honored in a better way.

That's a very good point Talhad. I don't know the standard recruiting itinerary, and I'm guessing it includes a stop at Brad's office, but these kind of accomplishments need to be out in front for everyone to see. I'm trying to recall the football-stadium lobby layout because that's the first place that comes to mind for a football-related awards display.

With the Walter Payton Award, does anyone know if both the university and the recipient get a trophy?

y is no one asking the obvious question here?

y is there no trophy case????? you'd think in the 60's or 70's someone would have had the idea to build a trophy case.

in the dee we have the last 2 big sky titles in the trophy case, 2 volleyball players put htem in there during the utah state game at weber on nov 13. so what about the other 16 titles? my guess is they are lost, broken, or stolen or the coaches took them over the yrs.

i wonder about football too? where are the titles? we can't blame the current administration for this since there's been no trophy case in 48 yrs.
