As a former Timpview grad, I am pretty unhappy that a Whittingham is coaching

The football team there. How did this happen? I'm sure he was qualified and he clearly has done a good job but... if I were in charge of the hiring there, knowing how much the Timpview pipeline has meant to BYU I would have found someone that had BYU ties, or at least not direct ties to the U.

BYU just missed out on a Covey, who is active, lives in Provo and went to Timpview... pretty crazy.

Well if Whit (at the U) gets fired in a year or two ...

Good point. He has proven to be a survivor so far though...

Wait. Timpview has a responsibility to BYU?

I hate to agree with the Yewt, but he has a point.

Seriously. Hate to EVER agree with a Yewt. But I have to here...

No, but to HS kids, their head coaches opinions mean a lot.

Considering 90% of those in attendance are BYU fans...

HailDetmer

That should have no bearing on the question...

East, Highland, etc... those schools are not Timpview

HailDetmer

I don't think you make a very good argument.

BYU has actually landed several from East over the years.

And hired some coaches. That doesn't change the local families' support of East.

You are missing my point...

HailDetmer

1/27/15 4:45pm

I'm not missing the point. I get what you are saying and you are thinking...

This is why I didn't say "Timpview has a legal obligation to hire a Cougar fan"

HailDetmer

Then I told you what I think is wrong with your opinion.

Tokolosh

And I told you why you have insight to this thread.

EVERYONE has a responsibility to BYU. Is there a question?

Rocketman

Uh, I believe there is a question. It's right there in the initial post.

Timpview should take care of Timpview.

No need, the Whittinghams are taking care of Timpview now

Covey's older bro didn't like his experience at the Y.

I remember Sean, and one story in particular I saw with my own eyes

So why go to the rival of the only school that gave your older brother

BYU is a private school.

Maybe Britain will be different but BYU's experience with Covey players hasn't

The allegiance of your head coach no longer lies with the Y

and that's how BYU has always recruited Timpview and it's always worked...
