Apart from the use of the word "thugs" he's not wrong. If we claim to follow

higher standards (and BM does basically in every national interview) we have to expect backlash when it hits the fan.

Memphis started the brawl and is definitely full of thugs (also started a brawl last year against ole miss) but BYU contributed and a couple vengeful cheap shots as things were calming down got caught on camera. Not much we can do about it now.

From a radio host, wow. Hope he gets backlash.

Yeah and he has over 11k followers.

He also tweeted bronco has a long history of being a jerk

thebruce

9/2/15 8:35am

Definitely uncalled for. BM is many things but a jerk isn't one of them (other

byutx

9/2/15 8:41am

Just because BYU holds themselves to a higher standard doesn't mean that

9/2/15 8:42am

Of course. But what it does mean is when our kids screw up we get more crap for

byutx

9/2/15 9:01am

Other than Nacua, who screwed up there? You can't seriously expect guys not to

Still Open

9/2/15 9:06am

Langi did too. But the point that backlash will be greater for BYU still stands

byutx

9/2/15 9:07am

Also Tejan, one of my favorite players, has a mean streak and has taken cheap

byutx

9/2/15 9:08am

He got jumped by five guys. I would be more worried if he didn't fight back.

Still Open

9/2/15 9:10am

Not the point.

byutx

9/2/15 9:10am

Just so you know, that wasn't a punch in the Houston game...

Still Open

9/2/15 9:12am

Oh he's thrown punches-the worst was the one that didn't land. But you are all

byutx

9/2/15 9:15am

Oh there's definitely a reason guys went after him even after winning the game

RdF3

9/2/15 9:12am

He's not wrong because he's not right - he's just babbling, no specific point

Avery

9/2/15 8:44am

but he DID use the word "thugs"

fattycoug

9/2/15 9:04am

So take out that word and his point isn't wrong. If our players make mistakes

byutx

9/2/15 9:05am

rue, but you can't take it out. Funny, though, that some here were whining that

fattycoug

9/2/15 9:13am

The reason I suggested taking it out is the blind rage it is causing and a lot

byutx

9/2/15 9:16am

yeah, blind rage is pretty lame (a scourge of the era, really)

fattycoug

9/2/15 9:18am

Those tweets are blind rage (or shameless efforts to attract ratings).

Still Open

9/2/15 9:37am

and the "bronco is a known jerk" seems to be a pretty innacurate statement,

fattycoug

9/2/15 9:16am

That's not in the original tweet

byutx

9/2/15 9:26am

yeah, wasn't referring to JUST the original tweet. both were included in the OP

fattycoug

9/2/15 9:32am

That's just swell

how are BYU's standards any different towards fighting/brawling

LOL! The Davis story reminds me of that one scene from 'Straight Outta Compton'

Who is Lawrence Phillips?

BYUHawk

9/2/15 9:21am

Former NU running back. Was a great college player.

9/2/15 9:22am

LP was awesome. Too bad he never panned out in the pros

spugeddy24

And too bad he "missed" that block that took out Steve Young

Bravo Cougar Stats!

9/2/15 9:27am

Now he deleted the Bronco tweet. That was the more ridiculous tweet.

BYUHawk

he's just regurgitating some conversation he had with a utah media member and

Ft Worth Cougar

He must have been talking to the guy in the suspenders

BYUBandfan

Agreed. I don't particularly like him as our coach but he's not a jerk at all

His tweet waving the white flag...

He was made to delete it? What does that mean?

9/2/15 10:44am

Mormon thugs made him do it.

vacougfan

means he didn't see anything wrong with it but someone else did

fattycoug

He said something about, "everybody has a boss."
