You people keep equating the bball season with the football season. Put this on

your wall: THEY ARE NOT THE SAME THING!

A successful regular season (which is subjective) can still mean missing the big dance, which is the best 68 teams. That bar is not that high. A crappy regular season can still mean getting in if you make a tourney run--something as we all know Rose has never done. Continuing to judge Rose based on his 20 wins or wins vs Gonzaga in the REGULAR SEASON is criminal ignorance. Why? Because bball is all about getting to the big dance. PERIOD.

Bennett beat Zags means he’s a heck of a coach. Rose beat Zags 3 straight in

Sure, he also went to the sweet 16 once upon a time. This is not that program.

Winning percentage doesn't mean a darn thing if you don't do anything with it

Ahhh. But what if the next coach isn’t better than BYU’s winningest coach ever?

That's a risk you take when you make a new hire

Regular season does not equal post season. Rose has won ZERO conference tourny’s. Embarrassing.

This take is so old.....banners are not hung in the rafters on a single game.

Yeah but also narrow-minded to just think everything is horrible.

Everything is not "horrible". We are an above average program right now.

Write down Rose's results from the last 7 years (records and post season).

3/14/19 12:33pm

Sure I notice the trend. And BYU still beat Utah and USU

If he needs to be fired then he will soon have a losing season

That is horrendous logic. The college BB regular season is not the same thing as

Bennett also got embarrassed by Utah State this year,...and lost to Pepperdine

I'm sure that is keeping him up at night right now.

Ash

3/14/19 1:52pm

So does that take away SMC's WCC tourney championship and NCAA ticket berth?

BYUheaven

3/14/19 2:00pm

I'm saying you can still be a good coach and lose games you should've won

19 wins and only 13 loses = winning season. Count on both hands

Yep. I thought it was TIC because it’s crazy to think this way.

He doesn’t beat them when it actually matters. 0 conference titles.

3/14/19 3:00pm

Glad to know some games don’t matter. We can ignore loses to LMU and Pepperdine

Coogar2

3/14/19 5:09pm

Did we lose to them this year?

They don't if you show up in March and win 2 or 3 games to get in the tourney.
