RIO DE JANEIRO -- As coach Ben Ryan savored Fijis wildly popular gold-medal rugby success at the Rio Olympics, a smidgen of doubt disrupted his celebration.Could he just walk away from this? Really?Three years after being hired by Fiji to get its sevens team in shipshape condition and coach it to Olympic gold, Ryan fulfilled his contract in spades after his team blew away Britain 43-7 in the final Thursday at Deodoro Stadium.Its been always our plan for three years; get them back to No. 1, win world titles, and then claim this first (Olympic) gold medal, he said. The boys were on another scale of phenomenal.So whats he doing for an encore? Seriously considering going back to coaching 15s.About a year ago, I knew I wanted to leave, and wanted to go back into 15s, but the more this sevens train has carried on and the more Ive enjoyed it, its almost jumping off at the wrong time now, Ryan said.His contract ends Sept. 3, and hes told the Fiji Rugby Union hes taking a break for a few weeks to consider his options and make sure he picks the right decision. He added that he may or may not return, but they should keep the door open. And because he didnt want to leave anyone in the lurch, he said hes Ive drawn up a calendar for the next two years for them.In terms of 15s jobs, he said he didnt expect to be pigeon-holed like he used to be, when being a sevens coach was a black mark on a resume.A coach is a coach is a coach, he said. The way he wanted to play was more akin to Super Rugby than the Premiership in his native England.The English Rugby Union fired Ryan after seven years in charge of its sevens side and straight after leading it to the 2013 Sevens World Cup final in Moscow. Ryan said he had already become disillusioned with his employer before that and was grateful to receive a quick offer from Fiji to take over its sevens team and program.He was happy even though he wasnt paid for the first few months and resources were very limited. Fiji helped him find my fire again.Discovering an unfit team with a poor diet, he made the players buy into his rules by threatening not to select people who couldnt follow them. When they won their second tournament under Ryan in Dubai, crushing New Zealand 44-0 in the semifinals -- an effort Ryan never saw again until the Rio final -- the players were convinced Ryan knew what he was doing.Hes introduced his team to lean meats and salads, dropped carbohydrates, worked hard on their fitness, banned cellphones -- including his own -- before and during tournaments, and cut down on their drinking.Along the way, he has faced surreal moments, like the time an 80-year-old man walked eight hours just to shake his hand at training.He was telling the truth, Ryan said. I saw his shoes.He was close to being the most popular man in Fiji even before the gold medal win. Now hes shattered that ceiling.Easily recognized by his ginger hair, stubble and skin not made for the tropics, Ryan cant walk anywhere without being mobbed for photos. His car is so well known that villagers stop and wave. Hes had babies named after him.Yet, here he was, downplaying his role in Fijis first Olympic medal, let alone the countrys first gold medal.I feel very lucky that Im in charge of such an unbelievable group of athletes with a country behind us thats so passionate about rugby sevens, he said. Im a small part of all of this. Its the team really. The coach just sort of points and blows his whistle.The whistleblower had a feeling in the changing room that his team was up for the Olympic final, but even he was amazed at how well they executed the game plan: Contesting kickoffs, staying on their feet in tackles and offloading.We showcased Fijian rugby, and everybody who was watching, maybe even the British supporters, can have a smile, he said.He expected Fiji to be going crazy in celebration, and contemplated what epic welcome is in store for the team when they return home.When they won the sevens world series last year for the first time in nine years, their bus took nine hours on the normally three-hour drive from Nadi airport to the capital Suva, because kids and babies were thrust in front, forcing them to stop and get out for photos.If his players got a vote, theres no way they would let their beloved chief leave.Our performances speak of how good coach is, and weve been blessed he chose to come and coach Fiji, and set things straight with the boys, and bring out the real Fiji, captain Osea Kolinisau said.For years, weve been trying to get back the Fijian flair, and what Ben did is bring that out, and a lot of consistency that was lacking in our game, he said. Im thankful, and hopefully after his break he decides to stay with Fiji rugby a bit longer. Clearance Kevin Durant Shoes .

LARAMIE, Wyo. -- Playing at Wyoming is hard on visiting teams, especially those that have come in ranked in the Top 25 this season.Josh Allen threw for two touchdowns, including a 29-yard score to C.J. Johnson with 1:07 left in the game, and Wyoming stopped a 2-point conversion attempt by San Diego State with no time on the clock to upset the No. 24 Aztecs 34-33 on Saturday.It was Wyomings second win this season over a Top 25 team. Wyoming beat then-No. 13 Boise State three weeks ago in Laramie. The Cowboys last beat two ranked teams in one season in 1999.Allen, who completed 16 of 31 passes for 282 yards and also rushed for 56 yards, said the two wins over ranked teams felt similar.Playing here in front of this crowd and at this elevation, its hard to play for four quarters when youre an away team, he said, referring to the oxygen-thin 7,220 foot elevation of War Memorial Stadium.Brian Hill added 131 yards on 31 carries and two TDs for the Cowboys (8-3, 6-1 Mountain West).Johnson finished with five catches for 85 yards.San Diego State (9-2, 6-1) was led by Christian Chapman, who completed 15 of 26 passes for 211 yards and two TDs. Chapmans last TD pass was a 23-yard desperation heave that Quest Truxton caught on the rebound with no time left. The play capped an 11-play, 99-yard drive, and also involved a lengthy review that overturned the original call on the field of an incomplete pass.Seeing that he caught that, it was like a little stab in the stomach, Wyomings Johnson said. But then seeing them go for two, I had faith in our defense.Aztecs coach Rocky Long elected to go for the win and Chapmans 2-point conversion pass attempt was knocked away by defensive back Antonio Hull.In going for the win, Long said he felt his team had the momentum after the 99-yard drive, which he described as unbelievable.Wish we would have moved the ball like that the other 99 percent of the game, he said.Rashaad Penny and Juwan Washington both returned kickoffs for touchdowns for the Aztecs. Pennys was 93 yards, and Washingtons 92 yards.Donnel Pumphrey, who entered the game as the nations leading rusher, was held to 76 yards on 17 carries.We just diddnt give him much room to run, Wyoming coach Craig Bohl said.ddddddddddddStill, Pumphrey surpassed Hall of Famer Tony Dorsett for third place on the NCAA career rushing list and now has 6,127 yards. He trails Ron Dayne, who amassed 6,397 yards at Wisconsin, and Ricky Williams, who gained 6,279 yards at Texas.THE TAKEWAYSan Diego State: The Aztecs have not won a game in the last 39 years when ranked. Since 1977, San Diego State is 0-4 in games played when the Aztecs are in the Top 25.Wyoming: The upstart Cowboys, who were 2-10 last year, remain tied for the conferences Mountain Division title with a shot at getting to the conference championship game on Dec. 3. If the Cowboys win their last game, they likely will face San Diego State for the conference championship back in Laramie.Im happy were still in the hunt for the Mountain West championship, and we got one more game to go, Hill said.POLL IMPLICATIONSSan Diego State: The Aztecs likely will tumble back out of the poll. They had won six straight to get back into the poll after being ranked earlier this season after San Diego State won its first three games.HARD TIME IN WYOMINGIn its four previous games, San Diego State had outscored its opponents 183-32. The offense entered Saturdays game averaging 293.9 rushing yards a game. The Aztecs defense was limiting opponents this season to an average of 15.2 points and 282.5 yards a game.On Saturday, Wyoming racked up 487 yards and outrushed San Diego State 205-178.STREAKS BROKENWyomings win broke San Diego States 17-game win streak against Mountain West opponents. It also snapped the Aztecs six-game winning streak and ended their 22-game streak of limiting opponents to less than 400 yards of total offense.UP NEXTSan Diego State: The Aztecs return home for their final regular-season game, hosting Colorado State next Saturday.Wyoming: The Cowboys close out the regular season on the road at New Mexico next Saturday night.---For more college football: http://collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25 ' ' '
