No way. You'd have to compare LaVell to Stan Watts.

Rose has been a good coach, but he's much closer to Bronco than to LaVell.

I feel like Bronco is the Steve Cleveland of BYU Football....

I really hope we hire somebody in the mold of Gary Anderson or Matt Wells.

Sirrinem

10/6/15 10:43am

Not sure I want Matt Wells

mogelijk

10/6/15 3:03pm

I can't stand USU, but they've been VERY fortunate with their last 2 hires.

Sirrinem

10/6/15 10:43am

Steve had 56% win percentage at byu including 3 losing seasons

Cougarclaw

10/6/15 10:48am

Bronco had better athletes coming into the job than Steve did

TheDeek

10/6/15 10:58am

Steve had some of his worst seasons at the tail end of his coaching time at BYU

Westsider

10/6/15 11:00am

well, 8-5 every year for 4 years would mean the same for Bronco

TheDeek

10/6/15 11:08am

No, if he went 4-8 last year, it would mean the same for Bronco.

Westsider

10/6/15 11:10am

Sorry to offend, Mr. Howell

TheDeek

10/6/15 11:11am

No offense taken

Westsider

10/6/15 11:12am

Well, I'd compare him to Ron McBride, but Bronco's no yewt!

TheDeek

10/6/15 11:19am

I've actually made the comparison to McBride for years. Bronco came in when BYU

CougarBacker

10/6/15 12:04pm

The comparison isn't great.

Westsider

10/6/15 10:55am

Bronco's teams will always be on the cusp of greatness

TheDeek

10/6/15 11:04am

So, are you in favor of letting Dave Rose go too?

Westsider

10/6/15 11:09am

Seriously. I'm amazed at how content Cougarboard is with finishing 2nd or 3rd

BeardedSpock

10/6/15 11:18am

for having Spock as your name you seem to lack the ability to think logically.

TheDeek

10/6/15 11:21am

The "bearded Spock" is the alternate universe version of Spock, so the rules

Steelhammer

10/6/15 3:36pm

I'm still impressed that you even knew about the episode....

BeardedSpock

10/6/15 9:52pm

Actually, you're about the same as as me so yeah, you probably watched Star Trek

BeardedSpock

10/6/15 9:54pm

I was still only 6 years old when the original series ended, so I didn't see it

Steelhammer

10/7/15 12:29am

the future looks bright for Dave Rose, not so much for Bronco

TheDeek

10/6/15 11:20am

Tanner Mangum? His 'coming' just came a little sooner than expected

gmj81

10/6/15 11:26am

Right, there are plenty of good recruits coming in.

Westsider

10/6/15 11:31am

Only because you like Rose and dislike Bronco

BeardedSpock

10/6/15 11:37am

well, time will tell... let's watch and see what happens.

TheDeek

10/6/15 11:49am

So do you also feel that Rose needs to be replaced to take the next step?

COCoug

10/6/15 11:25am

Ignore - I'm a hack.

COCoug

10/6/15 11:25am

did you read my post?

TheDeek

Is Steve Coming Back to do B Ball Broadcasts?

Uncle Bluto

10/6/15 11:12am

probably after his mission, unless he gets called to the Seventy

TheDeek

10/6/15 11:23am

Cleveland:Crowton as Rose: Mendenhall

Random Walk

10/6/15 11:34am

no, no it's not.... Cleveland's career more resembled Tommy Hudspeth's more than

TheDeek

10/6/15 11:37am

Sure, I can agree with that...but I feel that comparing Cleveland to Mendenhall

Random Walk

10/6/15 12:22pm

I feel like comparing Rose to Lavell is more accurate than Rose to Bronco

TheDeek

10/6/15 1:52pm

No way. You'd have to compare LaVell to Stan Watts.

Moot point. As long as BYU requires a temple pass for HC there will never

OliverGranger

Lavell Edwards said it best when meeting

vaquero

10/6/15 2:50pm

you've done it! You've managed to make me happy with 8-5, 8-5, 8-5!!!!

rmreitz

Bronco is the Dave Rose of BYU football...

AzCoug1

10/6/15 4:01pm

No... Dave Rose is the Lavell Edwards of BYU Basketball

TheDeek

10/6/15 4:14pm

With none of the post season hardware...Just like Bronco

AzCoug1

10/6/15 4:18pm

Jimmer's POY is a reflection on Dave Rose... getting to the Sweet 16 trumps

TheDeek

10/6/15 4:21pm

By the numbers

AzCoug1

10/6/15 4:45pm

your own words: Win % - Bronco: 0.697 Rose: 0.745

TheDeek

10/6/15 4:59pm

.048 difference... you are glamorizing Rose to try and make a point about Bronco

AzCoug1

10/6/15 5:06pm

if Bronco had 7 additional wins to get his percentage up, he'd be a great coach

TheDeek

10/6/15 5:13pm

So the difference in your mind...Taysom got hurt, Jimmer didn't.

BarraCouga

10/6/15 8:28pm

If your argument is Bronco is not the best, I agree...

AzCoug1

10/6/15 9:52pm

So if we stopped scheduling up and went back to a WCC like schedule...

BarraCouga

10/6/15 5:09pm

that makes as much sense as a turtle with a top-hat

TheDeek

10/6/15 5:16pm

Has he? Basketball was coming off three straight losing seasons?

BarraCouga

10/6/15 8:24pm

Bronco is the head coach of BYU Football. Just my two cents.
