that never miss an opportunity to take a shot at the opposition, regardless of how great or horrible their point may be. Unfortunately on a board of passionate fans like CB, that is all it takes to light the powder keg.

Why the rift led to such snarkiness after yesterday's win

You came on the board to celebrate the victory yet you were already on in the

Perhaps he did. Big deal

tander123

11/29/15 9:22am

Odd to complain about it if he went looking for it

concolor couguar

So glad you you set him straight.

Thanks for letting me know how you feel about it

An effective use of logic

Where have you been?

This has not been a great year

concolor couguar

11/29/15 1:29pm

You are unable to enjoy the season because of your bias against Bronco

deckard667

11/29/15 1:46pm

Beating Missouri would have put this in the category of a great season not just

concolor couguar

11/29/15 2:03pm

So by your standard

ALC

BYU won 9 games in 94 and finished in the top 20 great year

concolor couguar

11/29/15 4:15pm

That would be an interesting hire, but yeah, with the talent we have

ALC

11/29/15 5:18pm

I don't see it happening with the loss to Missouri and a non top 25 bowl

concolor couguar

11/29/15 5:30pm

I disagree

cougarmikey

11/29/15 8:46pm

This year alone I have loved the shift I've noticed in attitude.

cougarmikey

Thanks for you reasonable explanation as to why Bronco should be replaced.

At this point, the Fire Bronco crowd will have to pound sand.

I don't believe we were discussing recruiting here

concolor couguar

You brought up attendance...and Disgruntled Bronco critics were a tiny portion

cougarmikey

11/29/15 9:02pm

It's not nearly as small as you think it is

concolor couguar

11/29/15 9:45pm

I believe Bronco is an A-/B+ coach. But you gotta admit, we stunk the first 27

Adjustments were being made before half time.

Perhaps but not many. I was trying to be positive. Thank goodness for USU's

Bluforever

I don't think you can use the "before the season" example because after week one, we saw glimpses of what could be.

How so? I responded directly to your post. Maybe you should re read your own post?

Trying not to be mean or rude, but your response is really quite silly.

And you meant Tanner.. Right?

Yes

It is that potential that frustrated me.

Shouldn't we credit the coaches for the team's potential?

So UCLA, Michigan and MO are inferior to BYU in recruiting and infrastructure?

The fact BYU lost to those schools is the problem with Bronco. He almost always

but I didn't say great I said good but you said 9 wins and a top 20 were great

BYU Grounds

There is no way BYU ends up top 20 no way
