UCSB. In hindsight I wished I would have attended BYU even though I'm not LDS as it would have been cheaper and would have likely placed me just as well into my profession.

Was BYU ever cool? Even in Utah?

You don't spend much time in the west SLC valley area, I guess

lawboy

10/23/14 9:48am

Don't think it's a BYU thing

Twin Roots

10/23/14 9:50am

I think some Provo All-Stars try to make it look cool

Solomon Levi

10/23/14 9:53am

They don't compare to awesomeness like this though:

lawboy

10/23/14 9:56am

The trash element of our fan base is beyond embarrassing

Solomon Levi

10/23/14 10:01am

zoobs > trash element

lawboy

10/23/14 10:21am

Absolutely

Everybody's welcome in Ute Nation

Trash is trash, it is not diverse

Solomon Levi

Bravo - well done

If a fan is wasted and causing a scene, he should be removed

Yugo

10/24/14 11:27am

Uh yes it used to be extremely cool to be a BYU fan in Utah

CougarBacker

10/23/14 11:47am

Interesting

Solomon Levi

10/23/14 12:00pm

I don't know which SLC you grew up in, but that is a very different experience

CougarBacker

10/23/14 12:07pm

Sounds like neither of us were in SLC itself

Solomon Levi

10/23/14 1:24pm

BYU stands for something more than sports. That's Y SO MANY kids want in.

SoValleyCOUG

10/23/14 1:45pm

Yes, it stands for cheap tuition and putting (or getting) a ring on it

Solomon Levi

10/23/14 1:57pm

I can't tell if you are being serious or not.

CosmoK

10/23/14 2:18pm

You can't be that ignorant? So there's something wrong about wanting to be

SoValleyCOUG

10/23/14 3:10pm

As compared to what? A Ute fan?

FiveTen-BuckEighty

10/23/14 9:55am

I rock it, and people either want to be me or be around me....so.....yeah.

BYU fans are nerds, Utah fans are poor redneck anti moromons .... they are

Jhayes

10/23/14 9:58am

Hate to break it to you, I'm not a redneck and far from poor

runnutz

10/23/14 10:01am

But are you an anti "moromon"?

Tokolosh

10/23/14 10:04am

And I'm not a nerd and am not LDS ... like I said .. outliers .... Do you know

Jhayes

10/23/14 10:10am

Sorry never saw "outliers" mentioned in your post

runnutz

10/23/14 10:14am

If he didn't know what "ouliers" means how does that back up your generalization

Tokolosh

10/23/14 10:16am

That would be implied with redneck and poor. A little story ... A few years back

Jhayes

10/23/14 10:22am

Even if true, why does any of that matter?

Yugo

10/23/14 10:31am

Yes

Jhayes

10/23/14 10:37am

More about the crowds you run with...

Tokolosh

10/23/14 10:31am

I know I know, JEEZ ... The CEO and COO at my place of business are UTAH fans.

Jhayes

10/23/14 10:39am

Did you attend BYU?

Solomon Levi

10/23/14 10:44am

I did not. I attended UVU for a year and then transferred and graduated from

Jhayes

10/23/14 10:48am

Whoa! Ladies and Gentlemen, runnutz has made a return!

Solomon Levi

10/23/14 10:25am

And very humble about it.

You do realize that $15/hr minimum wage hasn't actually happened yet, right?

boyblue

And Aggie fans are the little brother

LuvMyAggies

10/23/14 10:13am

Who are the "aggies"? Never heard of them ....

Jhayes

10/23/14 10:22am

There are plenty of rednecks at LES. Who cares?

Yugo

10/23/14 10:27am

I don't care, i was just stating the steretypes ... I have redneck Ute friends

Jhayes

10/23/14 10:29am

I'm in Utah, and it's cool to me. But I'm probably a nerd and a redneck.

On the average, BYU fans are complete Zoobs.

newey-west

10/23/14 10:13am

I'd say on average we are more likely to be zoobs.

CosmoK

10/23/14 10:20am

I don't know...

newey-west

10/23/14 10:22am

I stopped worrying about what others think of me several years ago

kccougar

10/23/14 10:20am

Does that timing coincide with you becoming the voice of the cougars?

newey-west

10/23/14 10:23am

Is it 'cool' to be a fan of a Church school? Probably not, but who cares??

cougarnerd

10/23/14 10:49am

When people find out I'm a BYU fan, they generally act shocked

cougar_chick1

10/23/14 11:00am

"Cool" is totally a meaningless age thing...

"slightly-better-than-average possibility" and "talking about the margins"

Sorry about the yelling.

Its fine. We all have to cope with these dark days somehow.

Not in my ward growing up. Eccles, Rice, Dahlstrom, Sorenson.

BlueFrog

10/23/14 1:31pm

No. Maybe on Mars or Jupiter is was cool at one time but never here. No

If you went to BYU... then yes you're as nerdy as they come when talking about
