The new narrative I see on Twitter: The church is the reason BYU is losing

CapCougar

Blame culture

nephicoug

True, and it stinks to high heaven.

The arbitrary restrictions placed on BYU and lack of financial support are

DapperDan

BYU is paying more for its football coaches now than it ever has in the history of BYU football.

TheLoneCougar

10/14/19 9:12am

How do you know what they are making?

Backcountry

10/14/19 9:15am

The little that is leaked and discussed in the media.

TheLoneCougar

10/14/19 9:28am

They make more compared to BYU coaches historically, but much less than at

Backcountry

10/14/19 9:31am

Yes, I wouldn't argue that.

TheLoneCougar

10/14/19 9:41am

That only helps stop the coaching pool from shrinking further. It does not

DapperDan

10/14/19 9:19am

Yep.

TheLoneCougar

10/14/19 9:29am

But it is still way way way behind the rest of P5 country in which we are trying to be.

PessimisticCB

10/14/19 9:30am

Correct.

TheLoneCougar

10/14/19 9:41am

Let me ask you something

gurt

10/14/19 9:41am

No. But I'm not sure what that has to do with the discussion.

TheLoneCougar

10/14/19 9:46am

Because

gurt

10/14/19 9:53am

I see your point.

TheLoneCougar

10/14/19 9:55am

Sure they are, and it's not just with coaches.

Lip Gallagher

"arbitrary"

Bob Vance

10/14/19 9:30am

Yes that is the correct term

DapperDan

10/14/19 9:37am

That's nonsense. Not all the requirements may make sense, but they have a rational basis in origin.

Bob Vance

10/14/19 10:14am

That's not the only meaning of arbitrary

DapperDan

10/14/19 12:07pm

So you don't believe in the fundamentals, but there's no question they source from that.

Bob Vance

10/14/19 1:49pm

You need to let go of the other definition. The point is that there is no

DapperDan

10/14/19 2:01pm

even using your view that it is mere preference, that suggests more about your thinking than an honest evaluation

Bob Vance

10/14/19 2:15pm

Please describe what/who is requiring BYU to have these policies and what makes

DapperDan

10/14/19 2:45pm

...as well as the pool of potential players.

Correction: Kalani has already broken through the floor

TheLoanArranger

The church? It’s not the church. It’s the BYU admin

YIsForBrigham

10/14/19 9:24am

Which include leaders of the church.

PessimisticCB

10/14/19 9:31am

Uh, that's still not "the church."

Lip Gallagher

10/14/19 9:36am

The mods disagree

DapperDan

10/14/19 9:38am

Right. But that’s not the church

YIsForBrigham

10/14/19 9:47am

Correct

stonecougar

10/14/19 9:32am

Does that change my argument? It’s still the coaches making decisions in games

CapCougar

10/14/19 12:04pm

Perceiving the comments I’ve seen as bashing the Church is really

MatthiasPhunkHausen

10/15/19 4:53am

BYU is becoming what it was teased about

stonecougar

10/14/19 9:48am

If BYU was 4-2 as it should be, this conversation wouldn't be happening now. It is clearly coaching.

Turnpike Lane

10/14/19 9:52am

It's more closer to 0-6, than 4-2.

aimuli

10/14/19 11:14am

Not really. About equal.

Turnpike Lane

10/14/19 11:15am

More closer is not proferable English

Croweater

10/14/19 11:55am

Why should BYU be 4-2?

Backcountry

10/14/19 1:17pm

It is not the church. Kalani should have never been hired. Really bad decision

chazen

10/14/19 1:19pm

Yeah cus everyone is supposed to know exactly how each candidate will turn out

Lip Gallagher

10/14/19 1:27pm

I fear if they have to fire KS it will ruin the program for years.

Hammer15

10/14/19 2:51pm

It's insider knowledge that President Nelson calls in plays pretty often.

Shore10

10/14/19 5:05pm

Restrictions, cheapness and a refusal to hire non-LDS is limiting

Archaea

10/14/19 5:16pm

Then the Church also won a National Championship. His argument is invalid.
