BuckeyeCougarCrumb Walk-on

Don't ever lower expectations. Even if they are woefully missed like last year. BYU should expect 9 wins AT LEAST every season. They have been that good in the past and can be again with the right leadership. Hopefully that leadership is Sitake.

I, like Kyle Van Noy, can't believe how far the standard of our program

For the record, I'm actually closer to your opinion than most CBers. I was ready to pull the plug last season

But I was feeling generous today, hence my post.

Changing the entire offensive coaching staff isn't minor...

There's the longer term expectations versus the specific expectations for 2018 on the heels of a historically bad

So you give the coach who drug us down to the lowest of lows in program

How we got here is one question, but I don't care who the coach is now. Given where we were last year

Indy Coug

8/20/18 12:49pm

So the fact that Kalani completely wrecked the program

Take a deep breath. I'm talking about what the expectations should be this year for a W-L

Why don't you take a moment to think, you are saying he deserves

This is my last response to you on this topic because you seem oddly incapable of getting the point I'm making

Let me put it more simply for you because logic seems to escape you

He didn't write that he'd be happy to get to a 4.

Your OP is fair but not the Kalani criticism

This is correct. Going from the worst season in several decades to making

Six wins is a major victory in my eyes. Also 5 wins is a massive failure. 😃

SandYFan

8/20/18 12:49pm

But you can completely ruin it in one season apparently

kimdaddy35

8/20/18 12:52pm

C'mon. Kalani would have an infinitely longer leash this year if he had won 10 games last year instead of 4

Indy Coug

8/20/18 12:57pm

But had he won 7 you would have expected more than 6 this year

i see your point, but because of the coaching changes, he's sort of getting

8/20/18 1:05pm

Why is this so freaking hard for you to comprehend? If a team finishes 4-9 the year before

Indy Coug

8/20/18 1:05pm

A coach shouldn't be judged in comparison to his own

kimdaddy35

8/20/18 1:12pm

BYU didn't immediately get better. They finished 6-6 in 2005, compared to 5-6 in 2004

Indy Coug

Still defending the dumpster fire that was Gary Crowton I see

kimdaddy35

8/20/18 1:20pm

Bronco is the 2nd best head coach in BYU history. He has been grossly underappreciated what he did

Indy Coug

8/20/18 1:22pm

BYU got immediately worse in 2005 when Bronco replaced Crowton...

icecougar

8/25/18 5:20pm

I actually would be okay with 5 wins this year IF the team fights and

Duke Silver

8/20/18 1:05pm

This is my point

kimdaddy35

8/20/18 1:09pm

But the fact is, we were THAT BAD last year. Considering we are returning

Considering last year (and last year only), what is "acceptable for BYU" for you

I'm having a hard time figuring out how you "Kalani Guys" keep

kimdaddy35

8/20/18 1:27pm

Please simply answer my three questions with your own opinion so I can know

StarMan

8/20/18 1:30pm

Last year’s team (and Kalani) lowered the bar to where it is.

Duke Silver

8/20/18 1:58pm

Who said anything about a long leash? He needs to get back to bowl eligibility

I'm not sure if I agree with CB on the whole idea of the program having fallen

we have 3 losses already on the schedule. we'll be dogs in probably 7 games.

We are dogs because of how horrendous we were in 2017 and

Recency bias is real. Things were going down at the end last year.

I see what KVN is saying, but goals for Bronco's first year as HC

The difference is that Bronco didn't create that mess, Crowton did.
