Either you didn't read it or you are responding to other posts.

He was done wrong by BYU back in his player days, I think we all agree there

Heath Squashwell

Why shouldn’t Burgess have made that Reid story public?

LV Mike

Apr 14, 9:27am

He called out BYU as an institution?

He took a private conversation and made it public to humiliate BYU.

LV Mike

He did exactly what he should have. That needed to be exposed.

He called out Roger Reid, who overestimated the number of disappointed Mormons

ledfoot

Apr 14, 3:27pm

Yes. So Burgess was “wronged” by BYU because its coach privately whined to him

LV Mike

He was done wrong by Reid, who represented BYU as the HC

Didn't see this before I posted, but it's almost word for word my thoughts

No, Reid was fired for losing and not being able to recruit well, but he was

Threw and Through

Burgess was done wrong by Roger Reid, who was acting in his capacity as a representative of the University

krindorr

Don't recall Burgess repeating it

We cannot all agree there. Roger

Do Robbie and/or Randy have sons that could possibly be recruited to BYU?

"redemption for BYU"? I don't understand how BYU can be "redeemed" if it hires

LV Mike

Apr 14, 9:07am
