It was true then and it is true now. However, you realize that the alternative use of funds which you mention are one time items, expanding BYU, which is already the church's largest budget item would be an annual commitment.

ESPN's Mark Schlabach thinks USU makes NY6 game this year in bold predictions.

Sounds like he's just throwing stuff out there

Bronoc

is keeton the most over-rated player ever? name me one "big" game he won?

nashty

9/2/15 11:50am

I didn't think he ever beat us

Bronoc

9/2/15 11:50am

But he *almost* beat Auburn!

rggee

9/2/15 11:51am

Has never beaten BYU. Just Utah.

mulletYno

9/2/15 11:52am

has he ever beaten BYU?

cougarmanguy

9/2/15 11:52am

Never. Lost in 2011, 2012, 2013. DNP in 2014.

I can name lots of games he 'almost' won. That counts for USU, right?

kccougar

9/2/15 11:52am

Yes.

byutx

9/2/15 12:11pm

Almost wins are actually recorded

IceBlue

9/2/15 1:29pm

I can tell you a huge game he won.

RdF3

9/2/15 12:02pm

Dunno, but he's beat USU a couple times.

chago04

9/2/15 12:05pm

But seriously, Taysom has beat Texas twice. Texas > all Chuckie wins.

chago04

9/2/15 12:06pm

Texas last year was not very good but okay. Still doesn't discount what chuckie

RdF3

9/2/15 12:07pm

Alrighty then, GaTech, Houston x2, Boise

chago04

9/2/15 12:11pm

I make you look foolish about the Taysom line so you just edit it out? Nice.

chago04

9/2/15 12:11pm

Taysom hill's best win on paper? Utah state.

RdF3

9/2/15 12:13pm

you pretty much gave a bunch of games that Chuckie almost won

cougarmanguy

9/2/15 12:16pm

Read it again. I gave 3 games usu won and 1 usu almost did.

RdF3

9/2/15 12:17pm

Now that's good stuff.

RichieRich

9/2/15 12:18pm

Well considering the last time he played Utah state- he lost.

RdF3

9/2/15 12:19pm

that's pretty poor reasoning there, and you know it

cougarmanguy

9/2/15 12:20pm

but it wasn't poor reasoning when chuckie went down in 2013 right?

RdF3

9/2/15 12:22pm

did I make that argument?

cougarmanguy

9/2/15 12:23pm

did anyone?

chago04

9/2/15 12:24pm

No, although it might be applicable based on chuckie's first pass that game.

Shimmy

9/2/15 12:26pm

He had a 178 QB rating when he went out in the first half (down 7 and marching).

chago04

9/2/15 12:23pm

lol yeah- down 7. That argument is like me saying USU would've won in 2013

RdF3

9/2/15 12:26pm

You guys all make me sad. You know this is USU troll swish, right?

byutx

9/2/15 12:27pm

Nah, not a troll. I like byu. Just a bigger USU fan and sticking up for chuck.

RdF3

9/2/15 12:29pm

You're a troll, bud. Accept it.

RichieRich

9/2/15 12:30pm

He will fall on his face, with or without your attempt to prop him up

cougarmanguy

9/2/15 12:31pm

Guess we'll see. Not sure why you guys are so eager to discredit him anytime

RdF3

9/2/15 12:36pm

he had a very average to poor start to his year last year

cougarmanguy

9/2/15 12:39pm

Yes he did. He was horrible.

RdF3

9/2/15 12:43pm

Chuckie's rating was 74.8 when he left the game in 2013.

chago04

9/2/15 12:37pm

Wait, wait, wait...that might be the worst subject-change illogical argument

RichieRich

9/2/15 12:25pm

I'm not sure what you are talking about

RdF3

9/2/15 12:28pm

Which has absolutely nothing to do with the post I replied to.

RichieRich

9/2/15 12:29pm

Sad.

I think sweeping the MWC schedule might be enough. Depends on rest of G5.

It's gonna happen sooner or later. Basically, the AAC or MWC champ is going...

What are the reasons why it seems USU has turned around their program?

RC Vikings

9/2/15 11:56am

I don't think their recruiting has really improved, just getting more outta them

chago04

9/2/15 11:58am

I think Anderson was a big part of it, talked to a very very recent former

The LDS Church can't just up and increase their subsidy dollars for BYU by 67%.

mulletYno

9/2/15 12:44pm

If they can afford to own 2% of the land in florida and build housing there, or

monkeycowboy

Ive seen plenty of kids who would have loved the BYU experience go off to USU or

monkeycowboy

9/2/15 1:01pm

That is the same argument ELW used when BYU ws expanding in the 60's

dratax

A change in culture has been huge. For decades losing was the norm and most

byutx

9/2/15 12:17pm

And now their fans are freaking unbearable.

chago04

9/2/15 12:47pm

Ahem. 35-20...in case you've forgotten.

LuvMyAggies

9/2/15 1:20pm

prime example here ^^^

Mr Bassman

9/2/15 1:24pm

So you win in provo once every 36 years, you guys are sure bigtime. We should

monkeycowboy

9/2/15 1:28pm

And in 2013? 2012? 2011? 2009? 2008? 2006? 2002? 2001? 2000? 1999? 1997? 1996?

chago04

9/2/15 1:29pm

All those years we lost. But we won the last time our teams played. 35-20.

LuvMyAggies

9/2/15 1:40pm

Good job. 2 out of 15 is pretty good...

chago04

9/2/15 1:42pm

Guys lets remember that USU is a basketball school you need to respond 91-81

monkeycowboy

9/2/15 1:43pm

I would trade the win in Logan for the loss in Provo any day

Guy On A Buffalo

9/2/15 2:23pm

If USU wins the MWC they've got a good shot at a NY6 bowl, even if they lose OOC

displacedute

9/2/15 2:38pm

I would have to quit my job and move out of the state.
