...and regardless of whether they plan to spend four years in Cowtown, this will cause them to think twice when considering USU to avoid the feeling/possibility of being trapped.

I understand USU's frustration, but this is stupidity.

It is despicable to deny a player release when they want to transfer

Anyone wonder if that Dairy Yewt coach would leave 2 days before play if...

John Bender

I honestly would be very surprised to see a coach leave at that point

I wouldnt

Is there precedent for this? Has an NCAA coach left that late in the game

fattycoug

11/25/15 1:13pm

only because that's not when schools tend to hire coaches

John Bender

11/25/15 1:14pm

Yeah but wouldn't that partly be because no coach would take the job that late?

Schools want a staff in place for recruiting before then

concolor couguar

11/25/15 1:20pm

Yeah bit I think if a school was hiring and a coach did bail that late, he'd

How late in the game did John L Smith bail on Weber?

Brigham

Late enough that everyone called him a scumbag.

Quitting 2 days before your season starts is pretty despicable too

Isn't that what Trent Whiting did?

That's not the situation here.

That's my view from afar.

How about Jamal Aytes?

zuxvon

This type of behavior will hurt the game.

I think that threat is over blown. I am fine with the year penalty

USU has done this twice now.

It may or may not, the smaller teams may lose guys, but they will also

Is the @CBTonNBC tweet referring to USU or the mustache?

The manure odor apparently turns people mean and bitter and grumpy

John Bender

It may but Hans Olsen made the point that all USU has to say is

I agree with Jay Bilas. That's why it makes me so mad when dorks like Patterson and Norm Chow

that yahoo article just makes both sides look silly. Collette comes out looking

Utah "come play for us".. Colette "what should I tell them?"

Fetchin Fetcher

11/25/15 1:11pm

2 days before real games may be one reason. I'm a big proponent of letting kids

Schools invest in players.
