Including that it’s time to prove something on the field.

I’m talking about the people who are saying the program is dead. No hope, etc. Significant improvement has to be made this year. I’m hopeful it will happen!

Ridiculous doom and gloom is the same as super high expectations and disappointment

Last year was MUCH worse than just a "losing season". It was a disaster.

It was a total failure on and off the field.

I agree it’s not realistic to compete as things are.

TayPower

8/20/18 11:17am

so you agree that its not realistic to think that byu can compete with this

johnnycarson

8/20/18 11:25am

Compete in terms of long term trajectory.

I agree about Bronco. I think he viewed BYU as a sinking ship.

my opinion is that the biggest problem ISNT money. we actually do make

johnnycarson

We already are blowing up the program as evidenced by the history of BYU

exactly. doing nothing here is leading to the death of the program. you could

johnnycarson

8/20/18 12:54pm

You could make that case. But that would only be because you aren't willing/able

I am not advocating not fighting, to me fighting would be to get in a G5

BYU has been on a downtrend over the last 9 years. We have had some bright spots

We did pad our stats with WAC and MWC schedules....
