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

I don't understand why people consider Dave Rose as better than Bronco other than he is better with the media and fans. Dave Rose rarely has his teams ranked in the top 25 and Bronco does most seasons at least at some point. Dave Rose barely makes the NCAA tournament (top 40?) or misses the tournament most years (outside the top 40). Bronco is always about the top 40 and often actually ranked. If I were to pick another coach, Ken N. fromm Navy would be awesome.

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

10/6/15 11:28am

That sig pic...

10/6/15 11:00am

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.

Random Walk

10/6/15 2:59pm

I feel that apples are the oranges of the fruit family.

BarraCouga

10/6/15 12:04pm

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

10/6/15 2:07pm

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!!!!

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.
