BYU finished ahead of SMC with Pope 2 years and behind 2 years.
In the Big 12, going up against Kansas, Houston is a near impossible task. Rating a "1" for not finishing ahead of the #1 team in the country — that is just silly to expect that at BYU. Finishing 2nd to Gonzaga twice and 5th last yr in the BIG 12 is a good spot for BYU. That's just what BYU has been up against.
You've given plenty of negatives so I'm just highlighting the areas I disagree with.
