Hmmm... A semi-successful BYU coach can be fired for being bad with the media,

foofcoug

11/25/14 9:26am

Here is what I don't get. Was he Semi Successful? or Successful?

I think he was successful, but his style of play emptied the stadium faster than

Very good X's and O's coach. Horrible with the media. Too emotional

Thanks Ryan.

He was okay and then he had a team with no talent and lost his job.

Born2Fish

11/25/14 9:54am

Poor PR, very boring style of play, was trending south fast on W/L

There are obviously a lot of things that went in to it

Bill

He would have been a better coach if Shawn Bradley

11/25/14 11:27am

Or maybe

dratax

11/25/14 11:32am

no...he left because it was the last year that rookies

Roger Reid could have held Jimmer to a 15 pt avg.

I don't blame him for going pro but it didn't help that Shawn Bradley left early

Coach up mediocre players...coaches down potential star players
