Why are you ranting about 1984?

I haven't said one word about 1984 or our glory days. All I'm saying is a good coach could come in here and win. Apparently you're saying that no coach could come in here and win? Throw in a few straw-man arguments and we can all remember we're on Cougarboard..

Are you sure you're commenting on the right thread?

Problem #1: The active LDS requirement

You're missing the point.

Not suggesting Anae. Making the point that we don't know who..

One gif and this is the response I get? I'm saying Kalani is probably the best

6/18/19 12:33pm

Not trying to run him out of town. And why do you think hes the best we can get?

SLIVER

I don't think they would have come at all, actually.

I have first hand knowledge about the Ken N situation and can tell you

Problem #2: Convincing top talent to come live the Honor Code for 4 years

rggee

6/18/19 11:52am

My point is that I believe top talent would come to BYU under an elite coach.

SLIVER

6/18/19 12:16pm

Possible. But which current active LDS coach will be elite?

rggee

6/18/19 12:18pm

News flash: every team is looking for an elite coach.

6/18/19 12:26pm

Of course they are. But everyone doesn't have fans begging to get in to G5

SLIVER

6/18/19 12:33pm

Don't look at me. I certainly have never pushed for BYU to go back to the MWC

Benfica1

6/18/19 2:15pm

I'm on record as saying I'd join the AAC today if we could..

While I agree we shouldn't go crawling back

I don't disagree with anything you said, except for this:

SLIVER

I don't think we need to be satisfied with mediocrity

tmurphey44

All you have to do is read what I'm writing. That's all.

SLIVER

While that's true

Worked for Utah.

Newsflash: the last 4 years under Bronco were mediocre too.

While I agree with you, I'd take one of his 9-win seasons this year.

rggee

6/18/19 11:53am

Your wish will be granted.

SoCalCoug

Newsflash: His post didn't mention Bronco at all.

Left Shark Coug

6/18/19 11:57am

He alluded to the program slipping in to mediocrity under Kalani.

UberDeek

6/18/19 3:37pm

I think you read something that wasn't there. I've read his post again.

I was referencing fans who think we are where we are because of a systemic issue

The difference is current P5s won't walk away from big money.

Not saying we need to snag Urban. I'm saying coaching can = wins at BYU.

SLIVER

We want the Bentley, but can only afford a Hyundai Genesis.

^^^^This is a good take

I fundamentally disagree with this mentality.

SLIVER

6/18/19 12:48pm

Hypothetically we can be anything we want.

BOOHOLE

6/18/19 12:54pm

The point is that it's on the coach. Period.

SLIVER

6/18/19 3:15pm

I don’t totally believe that.

BOOHOLE

6/18/19 3:34pm

One way is to get players who "respect the honor code".. the other way is to

SLIVER

I shouldn’t have played the hypothetical game with you.

Dude, not the point! The point is if "COACH" (plug in any good coach, maybe he's

When I saw (long), I didn’t bother to read your whole post

BOOHOLE

6/19/19 1:08pm

Dude! I just read your post and you are delusional.

BOOHOLE

6/19/19 1:39pm

I have no clue what you're reading, but I am not saying any of that..

SLIVER

This ain’t Lavell’s tenure when HC issues were ignored.

Why are you ranting about 1984?

SLIVER

Wait up, you’re asking why I brought up 1984 when,...

BOOHOLE

um, no.

Mediocre? I thought that was 8-9 wins a year.
