Holly Mendenhall wanted out of Utah.

How's she doing out there in the grand VA?

Cougarclaw

7/11/18 11:57am

Holly wanted out because of the fans, so his point still stands.

If it weren't for all the Utahns, it's a pretty good place

Triple option at BYU?

I just want to win. Could not care less about the offensive scheme.

That is a good question, How many CB members would say they would be happy

I don't blame any fans like you just did.

Yep. I want all 750 links or I’m crying foul.

You are so clever.

How bout we wait until he has a season where he wins more than he loses before

Gerald-DeGroot

7/11/18 12:00pm

We cried over 8-9 win seasons. Now we will celebrate if we get to 6 and a bowl.

Bronco was a "B" Coach

Bronco wanted to coach at the next level.

Everyman

7/11/18 12:22pm

But then he went to Virginia, which we can all admit is in a good P5

Pasadena

7/11/18 12:56pm

If he can turn around UVA, and I'm not saying he can, he will have another

Nat Gas Man

7/11/18 12:58pm

I don't think he had to take a Virginia job to have an opportunity at a higher

Pasadena

Bronco publicly stated that he would like to coach for a service academy or

BYU has a system and philosophy that works

Coug

7/11/18 12:38pm

Did you mean Bronco has a system...?

Agaricus

7/11/18 1:02pm

yes

Coug

7/11/18 1:18pm

He's won 8 games in 2 years. Beat 1 team.50p or more this year and an fcs team,

CarolinaCoug

7/11/18 9:20pm

I'm not sure that philosophy works any more...maybe 10 years ago..things change

Nat Gas Man

Not sure if you realize this, but Bronco was/is a grown man who fully

New CB catchphrase. Organizational Skills.

If I knew I had to deal with a fan base like the ones here in CB, then I'm not

Mark320

7/11/18 2:54pm

Serious question: do you believe BYU fans are worse than fans of other schools?

Roko's Basilisk

7/11/18 3:12pm

For his sake, hopefully his answer would be "no."

COACHdrn

7/11/18 5:18pm

No, but that is why if I were a coach I'd be open to other options like Bronco

Mark320

7/11/18 7:26pm

Based on CB, there are some pretty lame fans. But, all teams have lame fans.

Benfica1

7/11/18 8:19pm

BYU fans are mild compared to other programs....

Coug

7/11/18 3:16pm

Gotta be true to some extent

You're 2 years and 500 identical posts too late.

Bronco guaranteed us the following: Losses to Utah, bowl loss, no rankings

Y4LYFE

Bronco has the best record in bowl games in the history of the program

I wish that Bronco had mentored a coach that would have stayed on. Instead,

Still amazes me how under appreciated Bronco is and was

CougarsFanSince80s

I liked and still like Bronco. He kept BYU competitive and won games.

Benfica1

7/12/18 8:33am

Just not against Utah....or good P5 trams without Gary's players.

CarolinaCoug

7/12/18 10:57am

No. Also, it doesn’t get enough run here, but BM wanted conference affiliation

Wedgetail

Bronco didn’t recruit lineman.
