Holmoe is a puppet. He doesn't do anything unless told to do so. Pope was..

It’s pretty evident isn’t it?

Lol. This is ridiculous. Pope isn’t getting fired this year.

We have two terrible losses and he hasn’t even lost the team yet

We will see. The Judkins rumors make me think otherwise

I sincerely hope you are wrong.

If you don't win enough recruiting battles to handily beat teams liksouth dakota

BYU is a tough place to recruit.

Cosmokid

12/8/22 7:25am

The goal right now is not to become Gonzaga. It's to beat SD and UVU.

rad dawg

12/8/22 7:29am

This is such a stupid and overused excuse. I sure hope the AD don’t have this

While the recruiting issue is true. Pope isn’t showing much for being a good

We should have known this when he was hired

This is also a product of the NBA moving to isolation basketball

Problem is that Pope has brought his UVU recruiting model to BYU

GerryWorld

12/8/22 7:29am

Team is too diverse for this guy

LaVellEdwardsStadium

That's ridiculous

BYU rarely recruits elite non-LDS kids in basketball.
