I mean this: Thanks CarolinaCoug!
I have found a poster who's opinion I can completely disregard going forward because I know that your judgement will be wrong and your ability to ignore data will be complete.

Specifically:
"I believe that Bronco is an average to above average Defensive coach." - Dude, seriously? How many of our defenders are going to the NFL? Yet ManicBlue filleted you with actual defensive stats that you casually backhanded out of the way even though they are screaming to you certain facts: Bronco is a FANTASTIC defensive coordinator. There is just no other conclusion. He takes average talent with some super talent sprinkled in and has put together a world class D-1 defense. Any other conclussion is simply laughable.

"I believe he is an average to below average HC." - And you would base that on what? You make an assertion like that you better back it up with something other than you dont like his style. Based on win-loss record alone, Bronco is a fantastic head coach. Sure he hasnt beated Florida State. Sure TCU had our number most years. But look at the facts: those good teams we lost to also beat many of the teams on their schedule.

"I believe Bronco is a poor evaluator of individual talent/ability" - Maybe you are just too focused on "the mote in someone else's eye when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye?" (Luke 6:42). There have been some misses but there have been some major successes. To go the entire way and say he is a "poor" evaluator of talent, and yet you yourself are a poor evaluator of HC talent shows you have little credibility to critique the man.

"I believe that Bronco is a poor evaluator of his teams ability." - Really? Are you a mind-reader? You know what he is saying in his mind as he evaluates his team's ability? Do you listen to him? Have you ever heard or understand "Coach Speak"? This analysis is just shody and you do yourself a diservice being so all-knowing about what he thinks of his team.

"I believe Bronco is slow to adapt or make in game adjustments." - You lost me at number 2 in your post but I forced myself to read what you said because it started to become laughable. Do you watch any of the games we have played? Do you realize how many adjustments are made after the first series? Did you not watch the games this last season? Just because players can miss the execution part doesnt mean adjustments were made. This means you just werent able to spot them. I thought his flowing in and out of man to man defense in the secondary at crucial times towards the end of last season was genius. I think giving Brandon Doman the heave-ho shows that he is man enough to make the hard decisions.

Look, I get it. You are upset. You want BYU to be undefeated and destroy the yewts just like the good old days. But calling out many of us as having "blue goggles" on just because we dont want to fire Bronco is laughable. Who has the goggles on, brother?

Hey pot, this is kettle. You are never going to frickin' believe this man...

So thanks CarolinaCoug! You are one poster I can now ignore with impunity.
