This is an exercise in holding Bronco accountable for those trends. The excuses have gotten out of control.

The Bronco Mendenhall era is the era of excuses and blame shifting

I thought it was more talking about how horrible we are even when we are top 25

It makes me wonder what it would actually take for the excuse makers

I'm in the keep Bronco crowd. Losing seasons would change my mind.

Blue Cat

9/24/13 10:16am

That is a very definite possibility this season. We will see if that even

Possibility is the key word

I don't think it is a foregone conclusion

Its not Bronco's fault courarboard members are getting suspended

It might be.

You led that into your sig on purpose, didn't you?

and the first one is a funny one

Mr Bassman

9/24/13 10:20am

What's interesting is that Bronco doesn't make these excuses for himself

FiveTen-BuckEighty

9/24/13 10:21am

Silly post considering nobody is actually using those excuses

workindev

9/24/13 10:22am

A lot of people have been using these excuses. For years now.

How you managed to type that response while being illiterate is a miracle I'll

It's ok, you don't seem to understand lots of things

workindev

What?

9/24/13 12:06pm

It's also the era of appalling impatience and unrealistic expectations

CoopDizz

9/24/13 10:23am

Is it unrealistic to expect

Mr Bassman

9/24/13 10:24am

It's not unrealistic to expect improvement, which has been slow for sure

CoopDizz

9/24/13 10:34am

but please continue to tell us how stupid we are

Mr Bassman

9/24/13 10:25am

Isn't that what DD was doing in his post?

workindev

9/24/13 10:26am

The wicked take the truth to be hard, man

CoopDizz

9/24/13 10:36am

I just find it funny that we have people telling each other to "grow up"

Mr Bassman

9/24/13 10:42am

I agree, it's pretty unrealistic for BYU fans to expect to beat Utah

Jkampana

9/24/13 10:27am

Almost a decade of work definitely isn't enough evidence to make a decision.

"A new scheme..." Then why are we running it?

messi

We do have coaching issues

Haha, perfect. It really is the Excuse Era.

messi

I wasn't saying you are wrong; I was presenting the other side of the coin

CoopDizz

9/24/13 11:51am

It's not Bronco's fault his OC is installing an aggressive offense

DapperDan

9/24/13 11:58am

No one can say at this point whether that was the right move

CoopDizz

9/24/13 12:04pm

Dapper, I agree with what you are saying, but I think you need a

The thing is, I agree with him too; that's why I said "also"

I could go for some wings and Dr Pepper

To congratulate him for the excellent post.

What is Bronco's fault is 5 top 25 finishes

Blue Cat

9/24/13 10:27am

four top 25 finishes actually.

Mr Bassman

9/24/13 10:29am

2011 coaches' poll.

Blue Cat

9/24/13 10:30am

also, 3-6 record against Utah

Mr Bassman

9/24/13 10:30am

That would fall under the "there are problems" category.

Blue Cat

9/24/13 10:31am

Bronco saw a problem and fixed it

The Bronco Mendhall era is the era of whining and delusions of granduer

The buck always stops with someone else, someone other than Bronco.

I'd rather find a solution than fault, honestly.

That's the other thing real men do, besides wearing blue

CoopDizz

To find a solution you should first understand the problem

DapperDan

9/24/13 1:23pm

Yes you should....
