I appreciate Derik's desire to see the program succeed.

What is it with people getting scared by public opposition?
DapperDan

Better to ask that in FO.

I don't think it is being scared by public opposition as much as it is

Derik is a straight shooter

10/24/14 10:38am
He crosses a line tho
canadiancougar624
10/24/14 10:40am
Derik will tweet TH the link to make sure he sees it
DapperDan
10/24/14 10:42am
Just ranting to TH does very little
donnerstag
10/24/14 10:46am
He shouldn't be writing...like the OP said-be a straight shooter
kalifi

straight shooter in a crowd ha

exactly...wrong venue...pick a better target to shoot at.

It's not about being scared, it's about not doing anything to hurt public

Hurt the public perception of BYU? Losing three in a row will do that worse than
DapperDan
10/24/14 10:37am
Yes, losing 3 games in a row hurts. But this is making it worse than it has to b
ldssdl
10/24/14 10:44am
It's making it as bad as it really is
DapperDan
10/24/14 10:46am
That's a pretty subjective argument
SUAVO
10/24/14 10:51am
The OP is a subjective argument, your own posts are subjective
DapperDan
10/24/14 10:55am
Good point, I'll concede to that, that's what this whole board is (mostly)
SUAVO
10/24/14 10:59am
It doesn't help. Even in the constructive critisizing argument
SUAVO
10/24/14 10:45am
Effective is the key word here.

Not scared of opposition
canadiancougar624
10/24/14 10:47am
You think TH can't read an article? It's also far easier to dismiss a single
DapperDan
10/24/14 10:52am
Yeah he can but getting a group and speaking face-to-face is more effective IMO
canadiancougar624

1) hurts team focus notice players already are speaking out 2) hurts recruiting

We sometimes forget how young these players are.
BluePete
10/24/14 11:23am
A lot of these guys are as old as professional athletes.
mr_thekid
10/24/14 12:08pm
True. But that wasn't my point. There are enough kids...yes, kids.
BluePete
10/24/14 12:27pm
A team that can't focus due to an article will lose games because they're
DapperDan

I'm just saying there is a better platform to get his message across.
canadiancougar624
10/24/14 11:50am
How do you know that's a better method?
DapperDan
10/24/14 11:51am
How is it not?
canadiancougar624
10/24/14 11:57am
First it's naive to think Holmoe won't at least hear about the article so he'll
DapperDan

Never did I say Tom won't see it.
canadiancougar624

I notice you left out any details of what you expect would happen
DapperDan

Sorry that your feelings, and Bronco's got hurt. Rub some dirt on them.
coug203
10/24/14 10:37am
Derik's agenda is to get Bronco fired and to get Sitake hired
donnerstag
10/24/14 10:35am
Hurts recruiting this year too IMO
canadiancougar624
10/24/14 10:37am
How much does a guy who none of them have ever heard of move the needle?
concolor couguar
10/24/14 10:39am
Sure doesn't help
LDTemplar
10/24/14 12:33pm
certainly but that was not the argument being made.
concolor couguar
10/24/14 1:14pm
I don't think it's a secret that some ex-players are not happy
donnerstag
10/24/14 10:41am
Then if they aren't happy go to someone who has a say in the decision!
canadiancougar624
10/24/14 10:45am
...and if Sitake gets hired...
kalifi
10/24/14 10:39am
You overestimate Derik's influence
donnerstag
10/24/14 10:44am
You misunderstand...
kalifi
10/24/14 10:51am
So what?
donnerstag
10/24/14 11:00am
Then to your point it is irrelevant if Bronco stays.
kalifi
10/24/14 11:07am
If the program stays at status quo, then the article thrashes Howell and Bronco

Great comments

Are there links to Poppinga and Alisa's responses?

I didn't hear Pop's but Derik called him out
canadiancougar624
10/24/14 10:38am
I'd just like to see Mike run around a blocker for a sack for him this year.....
lawboy
10/24/14 11:00am
Yep - we need a big game from him tonight. Run around the tackle for Bronco
FiveTen-BuckEighty
10/24/14 11:02am
So a player and a current coaches brother support their coach?

According to these tweets, he claims he has already gone to Tom Holmoe
