But I don't think he's the train wreck many seem to think he is. He's dealing with a pretty young group of guys.

Does this bother anyone else?

Yes...he didn't even mention that he tried hard.

Not really, if you are a 2nd or 3rd stringer, that is pretty much

Thrill

10/14/14 1:07pm

except it has been proven the best player hasnt always been playing

El Joffrey

10/14/14 1:08pm

Who is this better player?

Freddie Cougar

10/14/14 1:14pm

Harvey Jackson?

ChubbyChaser

10/14/14 1:34pm

Better than who?

Sure does... Not as much as this:

cougar_chick1

10/14/14 1:07pm

Gotcha ... you'd rather he lie and tell you fluff

ManicBlue

10/14/14 1:14pm

Not at all...

cougar_chick1

10/14/14 1:42pm

Are you kidding ? Wow ... nitpicking at it's finest.

ManicBlue

10/14/14 1:49pm

Are you a relative or something? You seem to be taking people's opinions

cougar_chick1

10/14/14 2:06pm

He's "manic"...

Grit for Brains

10/14/14 2:11pm

No ... it just bugs me that people here over analyze what coaches say

ManicBlue

10/15/14 3:35am

The back shoulder fade pass on a sideline route is extremely difficult to defend

Cthulhu

10/14/14 1:33pm

He bothers me.

AudiS4

10/14/14 1:08pm

No... why would it? What had Nacua shown to prove he could be trusted?

BYUtka

10/14/14 1:10pm

Listen, even if your wife is fat, you dont post on twitter that she is fat

BlueFrog

10/14/14 1:13pm

So Howell shouldn't say"He proved me wrong. He played good...he's a good player"

BYUtka

10/14/14 1:17pm

"he took advantage of an opportunity and stepped up when we needed him"

nashty

10/14/14 1:19pm

I dont think he should have said he proved him wrong.

BlueFrog

10/14/14 1:24pm

Especially since it also implies he truly had no clue how good Nacua was....

JamesDean

10/14/14 1:57pm

Speaks volumes about his ability to evaluate talent.

BYUisLife

10/14/14 1:59pm

He didn't have to, everybody saw it easy enough

icecougar

10/14/14 3:50pm

what has Povey done to prove that he should be trusted?

TheDeek

10/14/14 1:19pm

What does Povey have to do with anything? Wrong Thread?

BYUtka

10/14/14 1:23pm

Povey is listed ahead of Nacua on the two-deep... has been a serious weak spot

TheDeek

10/14/14 1:27pm

When and where has he been a weak spot? Do you have examples of him being out of

BYUtka

10/14/14 1:33pm

actually, yes... if you watch a replay of the UCF game

TheDeek

10/14/14 1:41pm

became an in-law

icecougar

10/14/14 3:52pm

Povey has played well as a safety. That's ridiculous

Bob Vance

10/14/14 4:29pm

Funny... nobody trust Howell either...

Smoke Monster

10/14/14 1:12pm

Nobody?

Freddie Cougar

10/14/14 1:15pm

do you?

El Joffrey

10/14/14 1:27pm

There's definitely room for improvement

Freddie Cougar

10/14/14 1:47pm

Young Group of guys? Do you mean right now or before the plague of injuries?

concolor couguar

10/14/14 1:58pm

Yep

Smoke Monster

10/14/14 1:16pm

Are you sure?

concolor couguar

10/14/14 1:30pm

Does it matter?

Smoke Monster

10/14/14 1:39pm

If it didnt he never would have had the job.

concolor couguar

10/14/14 1:41pm

And there in lies the problem

Smoke Monster

10/14/14 1:43pm

Trust?? Bahaaa no wonder the players have no respect for Howell

kotacoug

10/14/14 1:14pm

Crowton mold? now you are just being nice

Smoke Monster

10/14/14 1:15pm

Ya, I guess Crwoton did actually prove something at different

kotacoug

10/14/14 1:17pm

Whoa now wait a second... he did win 6 games in 3 seasons as a HS head coach

Smoke Monster

10/14/14 1:23pm

I stand deposed...

kotacoug

10/14/14 1:37pm

deposed ??

ManicBlue

10/14/14 1:42pm

Soooo ... trust should just be given and not earned ? Gotcha

ManicBlue

10/14/14 1:18pm

No its called coaching up the best athletes.

RaggaeCoug

10/14/14 1:20pm

and you think that happens overnight ? There is a reason most successful teams

ManicBlue

10/14/14 1:34pm

Jackson should be starting over Povey

RaggaeCoug

10/14/14 1:42pm

uh ... were we not talking about Nacua ?

ManicBlue

10/14/14 1:46pm

Been bothering me for years.

Ruby Soho

10/14/14 1:16pm

Lesson learned: don't drop Howell on the trust fall, because he holds a grudge

JackStack

10/14/14 1:21pm

Howell has no credibility to be talking about who he does or doesn't trust

maxpowers

10/14/14 1:25pm

Do you prefer K-Pop's answer?

fan_byu

10/14/14 1:35pm

Absolutely it does. Nothings says "Incompetent Coaching" like throwing players

BYUisLife

10/14/14 1:41pm

Nobody was thrown under the bus

Freddie Cougar

10/14/14 1:46pm

YES

Blue for Life

10/14/14 2:39pm

Bronco said he was one of the top fall camp performers. What gives?

deliciousmocha

10/14/14 2:50pm

What I like about it is him saying he was proved wrong.

Bob Vance

10/14/14 4:28pm

Well, that's a surefire way to gain the trust of your players. Publicly shaming

Real Men Wear Blue

10/14/14 4:41pm

By admitting you are wrong???

PolarisPrime

10/14/14 6:27pm

Yes, you are missing it--intentionally, it would appear.

Real Men Wear Blue

10/14/14 7:32pm

Hard to miss somethign that doesn't exist

PolarisPrime

10/14/14 8:17pm

where is the transfer from ND? was he no good?

HendyCoug

10/14/14 5:16pm

Yes because Howell sucks at coaching.

CougarWarrior

10/14/14 6:49pm

Thats kinda harsh to say that about Nacua

Snib24

10/14/14 7:16pm

yes bothers me would like to see Howell move on
