My FIL, who is a big UofU fan, was Executive Director of the Missionary Dept.
for many years. He stated on more than one occasion that BYU sports were a great missionary tool for the Church. He had the stories to back it up.

I suspect it's from the same folks who put caffeinated soft drinks

Tom Holmoe has not authority to speak for the church, or its missionary program.

I personally don't believe that, in purpose, BYU is a missionary tool.

Whether or not it's a major "purpose" of their athletics teams,

Who cares? Is it a missionary tool or not?

Not sure the context of this, but I was simply offering an opinion on the OP.

President Hinckley said it in a BYU assembly honoring the football

Probably wasn’t speaking under the Prophetic mantle, just an opinion

I was disagreeing with that post. I think I phrased it wrong

Urban legend. Also hiring LDS only coach's is another one

Lol, nobody is arguing that coaches can't be LDS...look at Genaro Gilford, Ed Lamb, Grimes, Mateos, Schroyer, etc.

Nice deflection. We know how you really feel about hiring a non-member HC

HC for fall/b-ball must be LDS. Holmoe has said so himself.
