Should have fired Crowton one week sooner. Would have made all the diff

Both were MWC teams at the time, BYU had more money than Utah.

Utah was willing to spend more money.

Not so much for what he could have done at BYU but more for what a good Utah

Yep. The utes would have hired their offensive coordinator that ended up a dud

Should have seen writing on wall that urban was leaving and Whitt was likelynext

I don’t buy the idea that he’d be as good here

Had he got started here, with Lavell mentoring him he would have done very well.

I thought part of it was Whit didn't want to deal with the HC

No... He was leaning towards BYU, but a bunch of Utah players showed up at his house, and asked him to stay.

Leather pants are hard to forsake, I can see the reluctance

I dont think Whittingham would have the same success at BYU that he has had at Utah.

The BOT will not pay what it takes to get a good coach, even with booster money.

They also understand that spending more money would be a poor investment

You're a poor investment!

I would say Utah being in the Pac 12 has been more of a factor than Whitt

Before the "invite", BYU led 3-2. But before Utah actually joined the Pac-12, 3-3. The teams were pretty evenly matched.

Bradley’s knee was down. Should have been 4-2 🙂
