I like to think of myself as not so reactionary like some CBers but this is a real long standing challenge to BYU's stated desire to compete at the highest levels.

I've been saying this for awhile now: The biggest issue for BYU isn't conference affiliation or coaching

No one here even knows if there is an institutional issue here.

The OP isn't about Ty'Son specifically, it's about what's been going on for years and years

Without Ty’son we’re not having this convo.

This conversation has been on going for years.

Star Lotuleilei, Pita Taumoepenu both were initially BYU commits but

Star didn't get into Utah until after he graduated from JC. Not a BYU admissions

You sure? Meaning he couldn't have gotten in to any D1 school w/o going JUCO?

He was a non-Q and had to complete his AA for eligibility

Bad examples. Star had to go JC and Pita was cleared to attend BYU but chose

It’s been a conversation for the last decade

How competitive do you think BYU should be on average?

Mr. Scoobs

4/19/19 8:37am

Top 25

The Dude Abides

Yes I think this is realistic, likely 15-25 bottom quartile

For over a decade (05-15) with the same restricitons, we averaged a 33 finish.

Mr. Scoobs

What happened to Ty'Son?

It's not just about athletics.

There have been plenty of things that have gone down over the years

I'll agree with this. Dying from self-inflicted wounds more than conference

Yep, all controllable and correctable (within reason). Non-assertive leadership

Did the last guy not have similar restrictions with objectively better results?

Mr. Scoobs

4/19/19 8:29am

I've seen it first hand

The biggest issue is and always will be the Honor Code and it's enforcement.

Good for you. Shut up and do actuarial stuff

Ron Mexico

Agree 100%

Plus, an Apostle telling you to act like a robot on the sideline/public

To be fair, most of what you say is awful sarcasm or trolling CB. 🙂

Coaching is part of the problem right now.

you think "institutional" change would help BYU more than joining a P5?

Would honestly like to understand what is meant by this.

If this is a real question, you are being naive or just blind.

Uh. Am I to understand that you can't describe these problems? I
