every couple of years. We don't have the luxury of our players putting in the kind of time and attention it takes to learn a pro-style offense.

Was Ty really hired by Tom?

I heard rumors that there was a lot of "influence" in bringing in Detmer.

BYU needed a name to get the fans and donors energized.

It was all about appeasing the fan base. CB was giddy after Ty was hired.

I think Ty has as much upside as anyone out there. This is not that uncommon

One correction - Kalani didn't play with Ty

jbcoug

good catch

Bob Vance

Or something as simple as Tom and Kalani

I heard Kalani had a list of potential people, but Tom did veto him based on

I heard the same thing, exactly.

This quote is FALSE. The link to Herald Extra said absolutely nothing about Ty

I've heard the same thing about him being Toms choice

Rumor echo chamber with zero proof. It is stupid anyway.

He was hired by Tom. But not Tom Holmoe, Tom Monson.

Yes, and BYU turned down the Big 12, and Mika wanted to play in Italy all along.

Tom reached out to Ty and started the process

Jericho

He contacted Ty before Kalani was hired.

Also interesting is Ty's comments that he was offered before but not his offense

Bobmarleyjr

9/12/17 12:24pm

I think I remember he may have talked to BYU before or after Doman...

Jericho

9/12/17 12:38pm

I really think due to his age and lack of experience Holmoe felt he needed

Bobmarleyjr

9/12/17 12:44pm

Actually...

I must have been part of the 1% Before he came I posted concerns abt his offense

Bobmarleyjr

9/12/17 1:48pm

I was excited until he started talking about pro-style, but I tried to stay

Jericho

9/12/17 2:04pm

I seems to me that Pro-style is a thinking man's offense...

WaybackCougar

If we went back to a spread there would be an instant improvement

Jericho

9/12/17 2:43pm

Yes if we switched offenses we could score more like Western Michigan w/ less

So where else are we going to turn our disadvantages into advantages?

Thanks for clarifying.

That I don't know

Others can correct me if I'm wrong but that's what I remember.

Oh brother, not this again.
