Jason Buck crying out for attention again:

Doesn't he do one of these media tours every year, where he complains about Independence, and calls on BYU to rejoin the MWC?

His opinion is fine.... but he does it every off-season, and the media (desperate to print something) runs with it.

Brad Rock: Jason Buck says BYU independence situation 'rips his heart out'

After consecutive Cougar losses to its in-state rival, the former Outland Trophy winner says the Cougars should follow the path of Utah State.

Brad Rock. Ugh.

Such a lazy sports writer. Always writing negative articles on BYU. Haven't

Yep. Good take or not, we all know where Jason stands on independence....

Rock writes this same article every year

Has he asked for his retired jersey to be removed too?

BYUtka

Buck speaks the truth on this topic!

5/15/19 12:12pm

On having a retired jersey removed?

Indy is ripping my heart out too. Sucks having the season over after the first 4 games

I can’t quit you

I hate Indy. Would love to be part of the American for BBall and Football.

He's my least-favorite past BYU player ever. He does more to hurt the program now than he ever did to help it.

MaxxPower

5/14/19 12:57pm

I think independence has done more to hurt the program than anything else.

DKN

5/14/19 1:12pm

What has he done to hurt the program?

It wasn’t last year

At least we have 5-6 good games now before the season is over

BallisLife

If he is going to do it, better now than during the season.

Why is this considered crying out for attention?

Baron

5/14/19 11:53am

Because in reality richbyu is crying out for clicks

DKN

5/14/19 11:54am

What do "clicks" get me? Can I use them to buy a sandwich?

Richbyu

5/14/19 11:55am

Lots of folks love attention

DKN

5/14/19 11:55am

Meh....I wish I could buy a sandwich.

Richbyu

5/14/19 11:57am

What kind of sandwich do you want? Turkey Bacon Avocado from Zubs sounds good.

BYUtka

5/14/19 12:30pm

Something from the BYU creamery.

Richbyu

5/14/19 12:38pm

Fries and Ice Cream too while you are there?

BYUtka

5/14/19 12:39pm

I feel like he does this every year. Buck is always complaining about something

If current state football isn’t ripping your heart out something is wrong.

Boise state and Utah state you consider behind us?

USMCdad

5/14/19 11:58am

USU, yes. They've had 2 good years. And avg 20,000 fans per game.

Richbyu

5/14/19 12:01pm

Regarding potential of where they could go long term. yes.

fulano

5/14/19 12:04pm

I guess I just feel until we regularly beat MWC rivals we aren’t above them

USMCdad

5/14/19 12:46pm

Not a valid argument. USU and BSU could regularly beat a reasonable amount of P5 teams...

Refugee

5/14/19 1:58pm

Exactly, and for those teams they can regularly beat it would look silly for

USMCdad

5/14/19 6:28pm

Yet they are still G5 and therefore relegated. Nothing in the foreseeable future will change that.

Refugee

5/15/19 7:22am

Yup

The MWC is looking down the barrel of not having a TV Contract

Richbyu

5/14/19 11:59am

Yep - do these writers not look at our future schedules. The next three years

Dangerous

5/14/19 12:07pm

Meh. I’d rather go 10-2 or 9-3 every year in G5 than 6-7 or 7-5 every year.

Traveshamockery

5/14/19 5:39pm

Yeah but THIS year we are gonna be good. Lol

5/14/19 12:10pm

After awhile, a former player's opinion means just as much as anyone else's

Indy Coug

5/14/19 11:54am

It must be hard for former players to see where we are at when compared to when

USMCdad

5/14/19 11:55am

Well said.

Richbyu

5/14/19 11:58am

I agree. But when you look at some BYU legacy kids that have gone to Utah,

crack

5/14/19 12:09pm

Absolutely. So why would any former player in their right mind advocate

LiveCoug

5/14/19 12:11pm

Whoa seems a bit dramatic. It's super disappointing being damned to 4 to 8 win seasons forever but not heart-ripping

Brad Rock and Doug Robinson write these articles every couple months. Things

Don't bring that rationale and fact pattern to this emotional argument!

Something you need to understand

One of the main reasons BYU left the MWC was because they weren't on tv

Question: how do you know Jason Buck was a great player

5/14/19 5:22pm

Jason Buck loves attention. Plus he cheers for Utah

Brad Rock is a hard core Yewt fan with an agenda to dig at BYU every chance he

I can't remember the last time Rock wrote about BYU that wasn't a snarky,

BRATS

Former BYU football players sure complain and cry a lot.

dodgersjazzcougs

If we can’t get in a P5, I’d rather go back to the MWC.

Jason Buck loves himself some Jason Buck...
