Get to know new Wyoming Basketball assistant coach Nic Reynolds
CHEYENNE, Wyo. (Wyoming News Now) – An offseason of change for the Pokes brings along a few new faces on the bench.
Nic Reynolds joins the Wyoming Basketball staff this season after following Coach Wicks to Laramie from Green Bay. He had to hit the ground running as soon as he got to the Cowboy State to help build out the roster.
”We were almost done at Green Bay. We had two more to get– with two visits lined up who we thought we were going to get– and just like that we had to come here. I think the staff that stayed here– Coach [Shaun] Vandiver, Coach [Nick] Whitmore, Coach [Tim] O’Flannigan did a great job of retaining some of the guys on the roster that already were here. Then we were able to kind of plug and play some of the guys that were at Green Bay that wanted to come here that were committed to Green Bay. So that helps in the process, and it’s just continuing to work together and collaborate,” Reynolds said.
Last season at Green Bay, he was a part of the ninth best turnaround in Division I history– taking the Phoenix from 3-29 the year prior to 18-14. Before that, Reynolds was an assistant at Division II Southern Arkansas and also served as the director of basketball operations for the University of Denver.
He already has some strong Wyoming ties as well; Reynolds’ younger brother Noah played two years in Laramie from 2021-2023, and Nic is grateful to feel the love from Cowboy Nation.
”Man, there’s incredible support from the community, the fanbase. It’s awesome just me being here for about a month, walking around and people still asking about Noah, checking in and seeing how he’s doing and stuff like that. So I already know the strong sense of community that we have here in Laramie and all throughout Wyoming. The support– that’s pretty cool to just feel and embrace for myself,” Reynolds said.
Reynolds joins Vandiver, Whitmore, O’Flannigan, and fellow former Green Bay assistant Pat Monaghan on the Pokes’ bench.

James Forest Mothersbaugh Jr.: 1953 – 2025
James “Jim” Forest Mothersbaugh Jr. passed away on Saturday, December 6, 2025 at Central Wyoming Hospice in Casper, Wyoming, from complications of Multiple System Atrophy. He is survived by his wife, Becky Mothersbaugh; his sons, James Forest Mothersbaugh III and Blair Mothersbaugh; and Blair’s fiancée, Kelsey Baron.
Jim’s life was defined by music. He was a highly accomplished violinist, performing with the Orquesta Sinfonica de Puerto Rico, Wyoming Symphony Orchestra, and Savannah Symphony, among many others. He held degrees in violin performance, music education, and conducting from Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, and the Hartt School of Music in Hartford, Connecticut, with additional doctoral studies at the University of Iowa. He met his wife when they were both performing in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and passed his musical acumen to both of his sons. Jim taught orchestra and music theory to generations of students of all ages & abilities during his 28 years in the Natrona County School District. He conducted award-winning orchestras, taught students who went on to become professional musicians, and instilled a sense of purpose, character, and belief in both his students and colleagues that extended far beyond the stage. He was also an expert in the craft of re-hairing bows for string instruments, knew everything there is to know about The Beatles, and possessed a rare ability called synesthesia, which allowed him to see specific colors when hearing music. He leaves an extensive, enduring, and active legacy in the Wyoming musical community.
Jim will be immensely missed by his family, his friends, his colleagues, and his students. A celebration of life will take place at Backwards Distilling Company in Casper, Wyoming on June 28, 2026 from 2 to 5 p.m. Please RSVP at https://jimsmemorial.rsvpify.com/.
