Disagree. Now is much worse.

There is more of a hopeless environment. Crowton's team showed flashes. Remember 2001? KS and staff have not been close to that. Crowton also had some real recruiting classes. Then throw on the current environment and lack of options regarding P5 conferences. Sad.

Good question. We've all been through it before.

Which others have compared to this?

No BYU team in teh modern era has shown such a considerable lack of life and fight. Crowton's teams at least fought

The worst I ever saw a BYU team give up was our home game against CSU in 2003

Please don't bring back memories like that. I was there it was awful.

Sorry. I was in denial about it for some time. Life was better that way.

That all happened to me a few years ago=it becomes an interest not an obsession!

Most people won't say it or don't realize it, but it has to do with the UofU

palangi

the thing is...we've had bad seasons in the past, questionable hires, recruits..

All-American Coug

12/6/17 10:22am

One minor correction. LaVell's teams were very good starting in the mid-'70s. We went to the Fiesta Bowl in '74.

Brisco

12/6/17 5:11pm

Just because an OC hasn't been hired yet doesn't mean there is no plan.

TheLoneCougar

12/6/17 10:22am

Yeah I'd rather lose a few recruits than make the wrong OC hire.

GOR

12/6/17 11:01am

So why let Ty go before you have a replacement for him?

gmj81

12/6/17 11:19am

I clearly don't know the real answer to this, but speculating I'd say:

TheLoneCougar

12/6/17 11:31am

To send the message that the program is changing proactively

WhiteKnight

12/7/17 11:28am

So you let people know its changing but they dont know if its for the better

gmj81

12/7/17 11:44am

With early signing day around the corner, you've got to have a guy in place

gmj81

12/7/17 11:45am

You look before you leap... this tells me we didn’t look before TD was tossed

Yea, and if they started next year 6-0, ( I know highly unlikley),

Oklahoma (P5) =/= BYU (Not P5, Not G5, Not committed one way or the other)

So we still have no chance at a NC. But we can certainly improve over the next

eddog

Not surprising. The program has been riding the fence of seriousness for decades

if every donor gives that threat, it’s very unlikely

No. It goes much deeper than that.

This is TBD... so yes... for now it is one really bad year

Pretorian

12/6/17 1:56pm

Too young to have lived through Crowton era, eh?

BlueTooth

Nope. This is worse. We fired the HC then.

Disagree. It's never been this bad. Crowton era still had wins over ND, Cuse,

gmj81

BYU beat Michigan St., Mississippi St., and Arizona in '16

boscatar

All were horrid and had losing records. We have a low bar if that is impressive!

We didn't beat anybody this year and were one of worst teams in nearly all stats

Methinks TH's silence on TFD has more to do with trying to keep him on the staff

pull yourself together man. you'll probably laugh at your emotional post

12/6/17 1:47pm

I think it's funny when people are mad that Ty got fired and say Sitake should

JuicyJam

12/6/17 2:07pm

Agreed 100%. The problem is that by firing ONLY Ty, nothing changes.

I root for the BYU football team because I love BYU, not because I love BYU fb

I specifically used the term BYU Football Fandom for that very reason.

Do you watch all BYU sports because you love BYU?

No. That's true. I do follow many of the sports fairly closely though.

KS being fired after one bad season was not a realistic scenario. The only way

mm73

12/6/17 2:59pm

Doesn't mean it should not have happened. Either way, the program is a mess.

How is the program worse off now than during Crowton?
