Do you consider Ken. Niumatalolo to have a "decent" resume? When compared to the

resume a young Bronco Mendenhall was holding in his hand when hired by BYU 10 years ago? Do you consider Ken N. to have a "decent" resume when you consider he can't recruit athletes to Navy, that they have conduct, academic and height and weight restrictions that make BYUs Honor Code pale in comparison?

Would BYU even be able to get Navy's coach when Mendenhall is done?

Bronco was also a long time 3-3-5 disciple and he has since gone to the 3-4.

BYU was hardly even a D1 school back then.

If you are okay with an unproven coach, the possibilities are endless

I didn't say an unproven coach. If you want to limit to proven LDS, head coaches

LaVell was replacing a bad coach. Whoever replaces Bronco won't be.

He has a great resume for Georgia Tech. Not for the BYU job in my opinion.

You keep bringing up the Nebraska curse - you do realize that Solich was fired because of his substance abuse issues

The point is the macro...not the micros. The odds are bad even for CFB royalty.

So what's the "curse"? To me that seems you are indicating that the school did something wrong in the dismissal

You're tripping over a mouse turd and I've only used the term "Nebraska curse"..

You're the one who drop the giant turd out there. You were trying to equate the two situations when they

Bad things could happen. Great things could happen. Fabricating cautionary fairy tales and boogie monsters

Math isn't fabricating. It's math. The odds are bad. It's just math.

And if Bronco gets a DUI or goes psycho like Pellini then we should fire him.
