Cecil was a UofU plant, at the request of a Huge UofU booster and tithe payer...

just taking a stab in the dark at why GBH put Cecil in, rather than somebody more qualified. Cecil might be a good man and great priesthood holder, but by no means was he a great university president. Sometimes assignments are based on judgment and not from a higher level.

In Tom I trust....I don't even know what's best for BYU football (and sports)

Do you not think that TH has any responsibility for the situation BYU is in?

Why would you trust in Tom? He’s been AD for years where we find ourselves,

One losing season in football in Tom's tenure = horrible? 24-10 in Hoops is

Last year was pretty terrible for football. If you think basketball is terrible,

Basketball is not terrible but our conference is.

3/12/18 4:30pm

not really. distant 3rd in the wcc isn't exactly setting the world on fire.

3/12/18 4:37pm

We have 3 seasons with less than 10 wins in the last 25 years. It can get worse

TCuz

3/12/18 4:53pm

For byu to drop to 10 wins in the wcc that

AGAIN since you don’t seem to understand....

indojoe

3/12/18 7:24pm

And AGAIN. I’m no WCC supporter. But it could easily get much worse.

TCuz

3/12/18 7:33pm

Conference affiliation could get much worse than the WCC sans Gonzaga?

indojoe

You're the one talking about the conference. I'm talking about the program.

TCuz

Cool.

Tom is the problem, not the solution

3/12/18 4:20pm

There many factors but to limit it to TH is unfounded.

ManicBlue

I don't think he is the problem but he hasn't fixed anything either

He absolutely is modeling BYU after Stanford and is preparing BYU athletics to

The problem was CECIL O. SAMUELSON - he was holding his breath. He choked away

Bingo - but TH should have pushed Cecil harder....

We are all reacting to the MWC's public comments. Why did the MWC go public?

Well, that's what I thought. Easy to spout, more difficult to offer

So, if you can't say he's done better than anyone else, you also can't say he's

Nice... we are in one Hades of a spot. Who could have done better?

Yeah... his coaching tenure there didnt work out.

In Tom I don't trust

I hope you’re right, Tom. Help thou my unbelief, though.

I have a hard time trusting in Tom when he is the one who has led us to the same

Where else could he lead us too? Guess what?
