If BYU didn't have sports, I highly doubt people would be so upset about it. HC office is there to encourage / help maintain a certain environment that students expect when they come to BYU.
CBers on the other hand seem to want BYU sports to do as well as possible at all costs. Get rid of HC office, get rid of LDS coaching requirement, be more lenient on educational requirements for athletes, be willing to play on Sunday if it helps us get into a conference, be more lenient on rule breaking in general when it comes to sports, etc, etc.
So here we are having another discussion about why the HC office is evil, because CBers have it in the back of their minds that the HC office is preventing our sports teams from being more successful.
