Affiliation or lack of conference affiliation.

Speaking of football in general, there's no doubt in my mind that our combination honor code and academics make it more difficult than ever to compete in sports.

I've been saying this for awhile now: The biggest issue for BYU isn't conference affiliation or coaching

No one here even knows if there is an institutional issue here.

The OP isn't about Ty'Son specifically, it's about what's been going on for years and years

Without Ty’son we’re not having this convo.

This conversation has been on going for years.

Star Lotuleilei, Pita Taumoepenu both were initially BYU commits but

Star didn't get into Utah until after he graduated from JC. Not a BYU admissions

You sure? Meaning he couldn't have gotten in to any D1 school w/o going JUCO?

He was a non-Q and had to complete his AA for eligibility

Bad examples. Star had to go JC and Pita was cleared to attend BYU but chose

C'mon soupie...where have you been the last several years?

How competitive do you think BYU should be on average?

Mr. Scoobs

Top 25

Yes I think this is realistic, likely 15-25 bottom quartile

For over a decade (05-15) with the same restricitons, we averaged a 33 finish.

Mr. Scoobs

What happened to Ty'Son?

It's not just about athletics.

Yep, all controllable and correctable (within reason). Non-assertive leadership

Did the last guy not have similar restrictions with objectively better results?

Mr. Scoobs

I've seen it first hand

The biggest issue is and always will be the Honor Code and it's enforcement.

Plus, an Apostle telling you to act like a robot on the sideline/public

To be fair, most of what you say is awful sarcasm or trolling CB. 🙂

Coaching is part of the problem right now.

you think "institutional" change would help BYU more than joining a P5?

Would honestly like to understand what is meant by this.

If this is a real question, you are being naive or just blind.

Uh. Am I to understand that you can't describe these problems? I
