How good is Real Salt Lake this year?

Will Burgess become BYU's Kyle Wittingham of basketball?

Plantagenet

8:04pm

All time hilarious melt down on Survivor tonight. That was amazing.

Adwight

This Dallas team is a likable group. Entertaining hockey. I would love to see an

kotacoug

Keba Keita come on down!

mjmill All-American

7:57pm

Maybe BYU will be fortunate enough to find a guy just as long as Fouss and Keita but who also is 3 or more inches taller

DJROSS

7:59pm

Oddly, Pope didn't recruit him hard. I assumed it was because he wasn't keen on BYU.

SinkingQuffa

8:01pm

Would love to have him. Wonder if he would be interested in BYU

kansascougar

8:02pm

Teammates with Fouss at Wasatch Academy too

rivercitycoug

8:05pm

Can he transfer? Portal is closed unless it’s open due to asst coaching change

BYU '80

8:06pm

I think it's obvious BYU admin has determined basketball has a higher chance

BackPacker

7:52pm

Totally different situations. Give it some time.

Bluedarts

7:53pm

Too early to say.

Mexicougazul

7:54pm

I think we have Big12 money and basketball brought in a ton more in its first P4

rivercitycoug

7:54pm

Does the BYU admin care?

TNT

7:55pm

They are willing if there are the right people. Look at the defensive hires a

cougaman

I disagree with you completely. Here’s why:

Pee Wee Reese

Fair points. We shall see. I certainly hope football followers a similar

BackPacker

8:06pm

Why should TNT care so much about a school that wouldn't let him in?

TNT

For those wondering, the Chief of Staff position is pretty common in NCAA

This man has a future in politics

What is the trapezoid in hockey, why is it there?

Avery

7:43pm

It's where the goalie can handle the puck behind the net. They can also handle

Bluedarts is correct,this is the area behind the net inside the lines.Enlarge the photo.

Islandercoug

This is good to know. Thank you

NC CougarBear

My guess at KY’s pitch to Burgess

gww687

7:39pm

“Do you want to be fired after next year or do you want to still have a job?”

RdF3

7:42pm

"Do you want to coach for a team that can actually win a road game?"

Team Chaos

7:46pm

That is a great point.

gww687

7:46pm

“Would you like to triple your salary?”

TCuz

7:43pm

That argument won't work here

TNT

8:07pm

“Hey do you want to make like 40% more money and do what you are doing right now without moving?”

RootieBoy

7:44pm

And have better job security

cougarfann888

7:45pm

"Whacha plan on fetch'n on the free market as an unemployed asst coach next year, Chris?" *Hands him a slip of paper.*

SinkingQuffa

7:46pm

Should we make the offer?

CougarCanuck76

7:39pm

In 3 years I think he will be

He'll be so rich at that point that he wouldn't have to work another day in his life

How much influence has Ryan Smith had on the “All-In” with BYU basketball?

Someone for sure convinced Salt Lake to treat BYU hoops like other investments

Riggins Rigs

Love this- double decker airline seats. Cheaper seats are at face to gas level.

SouthernBlueBlood

Does the article describe the ventilation system between the upper seat and the lower seat?

The Doug Stewart hire is absolutely wild to me and, more than any other, signals

macdizzle

7:19pm

Do other schools have this position? First time I’ve heard of it

Rhubarb

7:24pm

Who is he? I have no clue.

kotacoug

7:30pm

Former Washington General.

BYUtka

7:38pm

Can’t believe the difference in the program last year at this time to now. We

bigbossbyu

7:32pm

Love the investment. Still gotta get the players and have the coaching. Lots

VACougMD

7:35pm

Isn't some of that what Nate Austin was doing?

braddahmike

7:35pm

I'd say Nate, while awesome, was more of a recruiting coordinator/assistant to

macdizzle

7:37pm

Is Nate still associated with the program? Did he go with Pope?

durandal

7:38pm

He was at the suns game last week with the team, so possibly still around?

azmbacougar

7:40pm

Nate is the basketball ops guy. I think this is more of what Keegan Brown was

nephicoug

7:41pm

Ainge is the defacto GM. He’d be more of an associate GM.

Blue2thebone

7:38pm

VERY encouraging, indeed. I almost want to fast-forward through the FB season.

SinkingQuffa

7:40pm

I know it doesn't seem like it, but this is a bigger hire than Burgess IMO

CougarCanuck76

7:40pm

Hands down.

SinkingQuffa

7:50pm

Bball seems like it has all the momentum and support, football otoh…

deliciousmocha

8:03pm

Are there any Utah players we want or need?

pittsburghcoug

7:17pm

That Johnson kid would be great

SUAVO

7:18pm

If he came back from his mission today we'd have him

CougarCanuck76

7:41pm

Any chance when he gets back?

Mjolnir

7:58pm

What about Carlson’s little bro

A Drew Aitch

7:21pm

I read somewhere both Carlson bros are done up there

Mexicougazul

7:22pm

Looks like you are right.

A Drew Aitch

7:27pm

Smith would be good for depth, but not might be worth it for him for PT

Avery

7:24pm

Take Keita in a second.

rivercitycoug

7:32pm

Johnson and Keita

As exciting as Burgess is, I'm more excited about Doug Stewart...

We’re not losing kids to coffee lol

Mjolnir

It was a joke but we are losing kids to the HC. No question about that

kotacoug

How has Robby McCombs worked his way up to being the legit insider and breaking

blackandblue

7:10pm

It doesn’t seem like he breaks much news. He definitely knows things

DieHarder

7:12pm

You'd think he'd need access to developing stories in order to be so prompt with posts both before and after it's OK

CLCougar

7:16pm

He definitely has his articles typed up before the news breaks.

DieHarder

7:20pm

Him dropping his full articles moments after someone breaks the news is such a

fredetteaboutit13

7:27pm

He doesn't really want to break news

CougarCanuck76

7:42pm

Not quite to Dave McCann posting naval ship tweets yet, but getting close.

BGRTHNUMEGO

7:13pm

Because he is an ally to BYU and doesn’t put himself above the team

7:17pm

He’s developed a really good reputation. He seems well respected.

This tweet from Gottlieb just feels… weird

Sir_Ten

7:06pm

That is weird. Tells you all you need to know about the current state of the two programs.

Blue2thebone

7:08pm

I think it’s intended to be complimentary. Also, I think it’s true.

Mjolnir

7:09pm

it feels like he is just trying to impart some deep insight, but he is missing

cwilke1

7:09pm

Ouch Doug, too many folks will draw all the wrong conclusions from that characterization

CLCougar

7:09pm

He means it to be complimentary. A friend of mine spent some time around him on his mission and Doug was awesome to the

RdF3

7:10pm

But when he left us two years ago it showed that devout LDS men hate BYU.

DieHarder

7:11pm

But 2 years ago he was moving from the WCC to the PAC-12.

Japan Coug

7:12pm

Devout LDS men regard BYU very highly, only short of their regard for power five

DieHarder

7:14pm

Now explain Kyle Whittingham. No new tail to tell.

zonacougar

7:14pm

He is in an unbreakable contract

Ojiisan

7:39pm

Meh. Burgess got paid.

KCFan85

7:27pm

We probably only needed to match this year's salary — & guarantee him a couple more.

SinkingQuffa

7:57pm

Lol. Apparently not aware of the backstory.

Coldplay has 2 of the top 15 highest selling concert tours of all time, with their time one being #2 only behind

CSoul

7:04pm

Interesting, thanks. I didn’t realize they are that popular, until I saw the $$

Japan Coug

7:06pm

They are probably the #2 most popular act in the world behind only Taylor Swift

CSoul

7:07pm

I’m surprised as well. But Coldplay does well internationally.

lilpenny

7:17pm

I just saw Sting in concert. He’s probably half price and way better than

lilpenny

7:22pm

Ahaha. In your early 40s and saying "Get off my lawn". In a hurry to be old?

Cougar Junkie

Sting was shockingly good when I saw him a couple years ago. I couldn’t believe

pink22

7:35pm

Saw him last year at USANA in Salt Lake. Great show. Great musician.

Bonoman

7:42pm

Obviously a much, much bigger deal.

KCFan85

I was shocked to see how high they are on all time ticket sales.

Bluedarts

I saw Tim McGraw at one of these last year. It was awesome.

Good that means he’s been a good coach

DanSmith

I highly doubt it'll be at an upper-D1 school.

SinkingQuffa

6:45pm

maybe, there are so many good assistant coaches that want to move up the ladder

cwilke1

6:46pm

He will be the next BYU coach after KY. The next Utah coach will be Alex Jensen,

Rocketman

6:47pm

Now let’s announce a couple bigs for him to coach to prove himself with. He’s really great coaching up bigs.

Good. That means we were good and had success

Here's my theory on Burgess...

Burgess is coming.

It’s comical how wrong Steve Bartle is when it comes to BYU. The jokes just write themselves with Utah media guys.

Chances of Chandler coming back to BYU this year are slim to none.
