Hopefully, the swagger comes back. I've been on the sidelines during my college

days (early 90s) the coaches were in faces chewing players out, players were pumping others up.... I was also once on the Hawaii sideline when BYU was destroying the Rainbow Warriors.... and it was much like you saw at the BYU v ECU game — no passion or energy.

That's great that Holmoe knows how to be a cheerleader, but frankly he's the one

BYU put a muzzle on Kalani, after the utah game,

You’re right, there isn’t a link. There isn’t a quote or any evidence whatsoever that Kalani was

Zach Morris

3/21/18 7:55am

Wrong. I've read it. He said it. 100% true.

BYURider

3/21/18 8:03am

100% true huh without any supporting evidence whatsoever? I’m not an attorney like many on here

Zach Morris

When I have free time, I'll find it

Tone it down does not mean stand there and look stupid and lost.

Never got that impression. He became like Bronco and Lavell.

BYURider

3/21/18 12:04pm

Uh ... Bronco showed plenty of emotion on the sidelines

ManicBlue

occasionally. most of the time not at all

BYURider

3/21/18 1:16pm

It wasn't needed all the time. You don't want your HC to be a raving maniac on

ManicBlue

3/21/18 1:19pm

I want my HC to show enthusiasm, because thats contagious. Stotic is useless.

BYURider

3/21/18 3:06pm

Definitely agree but that certainly wouldn't fall into the 'tone it down'

ManicBlue

If anyone has it recorded, he said it in a pregame interview before Portland St.

Thank you

Even if Kalani alleged he was told to “tone it down”. I don’t see how “tone it down”

Zach Morris

3/21/18 12:51pm

“tone it down stuff just isn’t an excuse for what byu football has become."

BYURider

3/21/18 1:20pm

Fair enough.

Just like with Bronco, we’ve seen a significant personality change as BYU HC

Watch Bronco over 2 yrs on Virginia’s sidelines. He’s as mello as ever coaching there.

Zach Morris

3/21/18 8:27am

Vince Lombardi did the same thing.

Assuming that is true, so what? How did that translate into an entire team

3/21/18 9:01am

Seems like a convenient excuse to use as a crutch for a struggling coach...

Zach Morris

3/21/18 9:06am

I don't think he ever used that as an excuse for losing.

I was at the game although sitting up high. I thought they had energy during

3/21/18 8:15am

Yup. Last year's team had NO mental toughness whatsoever. Needs fixed ASAP

fulano

THIS ^^^^^ NO mental toughness whatsoever. From the HC down

Embarrassing. Abysmal. Shameful. Pathetic. Horrible. Dreadful. Ghastly. Heinous. Vile. Unspeakable. I could go on...

I was there in the stands and this makes total sense...

All you had to do was look at the intensity in Bronco's eyes. I was on the

It was the same at the Mississippi St. game

I saw the same exact thing from the first row of the LSU game... It was awful!

TheAirForceCoug

Uh, they were 1-6 and getting killed by everyone. They sucked, the coaching staff sucked, and they all knew it.

Love of the game. If you truly love the game, you are excited to play

ECU didn’t have a problem getting up for the game.

Brigham

3/21/18 4:43pm

Sadly this is when I lost faith in TFD. How could we not score more on that team

ChiCityCoug

3/21/18 12:16pm

Same here. But the loss at home to Umass was the final straw.

3/21/18 1:55pm

Agreed

ChiCityCoug

Saw the same problem at Fresno. No fire from players or coaches.

You mean you don’t go to the game just to watch BYU?
