for you. Dude does not mince words and always tells the truth which is what I like about him. The great sports analysts always tell the truth even if it hurts their friends/former teammates.

Always gives his view of things. But his biases run deep

Y'zFan

What biases are you talking about?

A couple that come to mind are pro-Bronco

Hahaha. I figured that was going to be the source of some of y'alls angst

Pop has an ax to grind...very clearly.

Crowton also never had an OL (or a QB, for that matter) that even came close to

I don't get the point of tearing down another player.

See above, the best analysts always tell it like they see it regardless

Yunit

What's the value now? Luke is about to get his number retired.

whirl

7/25/17 8:59pm

Maybe that is all true. It really doesn't matter because Crowton didn't use him

mudpupper

7/25/17 8:47pm

Agreed. Crowton did a great job with the personnel and tools that he was

I don't understand why we'd want to throw our own

Haha, we do it every day on CB

No we don't, not like this

A bunch of nobody's on a nobody message forum discussing a bunch of nonsense

Zach Morris

Justify it however you want. Not all former byu players are best friends

gmj81

7/25/17 9:12pm

I couldn't care less if former players are friends or not, you shouldn't discuss your

They fight not be friends but they have a common background which should

I don't care what former players say. He averaged 8 ypc for an entire

Littlerich

I wish he wouldn't do this, especially to Staley. The guy is just starting to

TheLoneCougar

7/25/17 9:12pm

So fans are going to alienate pop instead?

gmj81

7/25/17 9:15pm

Are you referring to me in your rant, or other fans? Did I go ape yewt on those

TheLoneCougar

7/25/17 9:28pm

Yep.

Kerbouchard

Sounds like axe grinding to me. I bet Pop is just still hurt

Accipiter

7/25/17 9:23pm

Did he also tell the absolute truth about byu beating Boise St in 2004?

mpfunk

7/25/17 9:46pm

Of course.

Yunit

7/25/17 9:53pm
