These are things said by Ute fans that Wilson's family needs to see over and ove

In most cases, families view this very different than fans...

I think it depends on how much abuse Zack gets.

Do Utah fans hate Wilson? I went to the Holy War this year and when things

Hopefully his family can overlook BYU fans who misspell Zach’s name

You're assuming 100% of the Utah fans are abusing Zach and family

Not sure I agree that the comment by Jdoc amounts to him "trashing" Wilson

Westsider

I wasn't trashing Wilson. I was responding to a post that said he was a

That's fine. I need to be better about being more respectful of other people's

Jdoc

12/10/18 10:10am

Definitely a good reminder for me as well. Thank you

cougarmanguy

12/10/18 10:25am

I don't think it can be argued that he is better than either Love or Huntley....

This is a good take from a guy that understands the quarterback position better

remind me again which school has the safe closet for snowflakes?

Bostonblue

I'm not saying that BYU or its fans are more sensitive than Utah...

12/10/18 10:38am

You can't say that because it wouldn't be accurate. Utah is far more

I have 2 sources - 1 close to Utah's LAX program, the other a big-time BYU donor

MarkWatney has bad sources.

James Halpert

As do I. I don't believe he has the full story.

Not accurate at all. Your people don't know what they are talking about.

I'm worried that Cougstreak has bad sources?

PGrovecoug

12/10/18 3:10pm

And FWIW this is a very different offer than to Utah where he donated $15 mill

PGrovecoug

12/10/18 3:19pm

Right. Which goes to my question above. Why would the offers be so different?

goldy

Utah will take donations with stipulations

Yeah. BYU doesn't take orders from donors. Maybe they would for more than 100k

only way anyone will flip is if BYU football actually does something flipworthy.
