My guess at KY’s pitch to Burgess

gww687

7:39pm

“Do you want to be fired after next year or do you want to still have a job?”

RdF3

7:42pm

Should we make the offer?

How much influence has Ryan Smith had on the “All-In” with BYU basketball?

Someone for sure convinced Salt Lake to treat BYU hoops like other investments

Does the article describe the ventilation system between the upper seat and the lower seat?

Isn't some of that what Nate Austin was doing?

I'd say Nate, while awesome, was more of a recruiting coordinator/assistant to

Is Nate still associated with the program? Did he go with Pope?

durandal

He was at the suns game last week with the team, so possibly still around?

azmbacougar

Nate is the basketball ops guy. I think this is more of what Keegan Brown was

nephicoug

7:41pm

Ainge is the defacto GM. He’d be more of an associate GM.

Blue2thebone

7:38pm

VERY encouraging, indeed. I almost want to fast-forward through the FB season.

SinkingQuffa

I know it doesn't seem like it, but this is a bigger hire than Burgess IMO

CougarCanuck76

Are there any Utah players we want or need?

blackandblue

7:10pm

It doesn’t seem like he breaks much news. He definitely knows things

DieHarder

7:12pm

You'd think he'd need access to developing stories in order to be so prompt with posts both before and after it's OK

CLCougar

7:16pm

He definitely has his articles typed up before the news breaks.

DieHarder

Him dropping his full articles moments after someone breaks the news is such a

Not quite to Dave McCann posting naval ship tweets yet, but getting close.

BGRTHNUMEGO

Because he is an ally to BYU and doesn’t put himself above the team

He’s developed a really good reputation. He seems well respected.

But when he left us two years ago it showed that devout LDS men hate BYU.

But 2 years ago he was moving from the WCC to the PAC-12.

Devout LDS men regard BYU very highly, only short of their regard for power five
