Am I overreacting or does it seem KY is light years ahead of Pope?

True, but I don't think I've ever been more excited about BYU bball.

I’m quite confident we upgraded in almost every way

Seems fairly obvious tosay the dude is a better coach. Resume speaks for itself.

I'll wait to see if the starting 5 are the best players before I make judgement.

I’ve always felt Pope used hyper enthusiasm and animation as a cover at times

Pope brings the massive hyperbole, dramatic speech, mannerisms etc. Sometimes

Pope is a 6'9" version of Dick Vitale

Tough to say. They are exactly TIED at postseason wins. Kinda crazy coincidence.

Detmer & Kalani SEEMED like home-run hires to many fans on CB once upon a day, too.

Yeah. Neither of those guys coaching experience or success was even light years

Alan Schaefer

Kalani had waaay more collegiate experience than Young. Particularly w recruiting. That's potentially a big deal.

I said coaching. I didn’t differentiate. And I also made sure to ad “success”

I think Young gets past that.

We hope. I very much hope. He still has a ton to prove, though. As does BYU in the Big 12.

I've never seen anyone overreact on CB before, so prob not

yahtzee

Let's let the guy win a game for BYU before we actually crown him

Apr 17, 9:25pm

He'll be good...but there will be "adjustments."
