Well, golly gee, Mac, this ain't rocket science. Pope came from a winning
program, competed at the highest level, and was an up and coming coach who came to BYU. Since you're a big Bronco honk, let's compare that to, oh I don't know, how about Nick Howell? Did he play college ball? Well then he must have at least come from a winning college program. What's that you say? He didn't? He came from high school? Wow. Must have really been a powerhouse then. Come again? He came from a losing HS program?
Yeah, I don't think these comparisons are in your favor, big guy.
