That's rough. Best wishes!

Pope must accomplish what in the next 3 seasons to retain his job?

Magneto

9:09am

does pope make it 3 seasons?

archie

9:11am

He could be a 1 and done depending on how season goes. Jaxon and Aly are great but total softies. He needs much more.

Haysom Till

9:13am

Don't know, don't care. Other than beating him at recruiting for a few guys

kimdaddy35

He'll get one grace year to rebuild the team. By year three he'll need to reach

I'm going to say Final 4. It must be a pressure cooker at that level.

Pope left. Young hired. Players in portal but not signed elsewhere yet.

Well, hopefully football doesn't roll around before BB assistants hired, players from the portal, retain core players

In what year will their expansion NHL team debut?

rainorsnow

I have doubts they will get a stadium deal done

arizonacougarfan

9:00am

Well if the Coyotes could find a halfway decent owner this wouldn’t be the case

LakeshowCougs

9:00am

They’re the biggest market without teams from all four big 4 leagues? Houston and Atlanta don’t have hockey teams either

YIsForBrigham

9:03am

Thanks for the correction!

arizonacougarfan

9:08am

But Houston and Atlanta have MLS teams so phoenix is the largest metro to not have 2 of the 5

YIsForBrigham

9:19am

Is SLC the smallest two team market?

RC Vikings

9:09am

Salt Lake metro (with all wasatch front) is bigger than KC, St Louis, Nashville

arizonacougarfan

Also bigger tv market than Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Las Vegas, Milwaukee, etc.

No, Western Kentucky is there. Maybe Pope can go there next

It isn't just about bringing Hall & Saunders back, but also who can we get

I will take a gutted roster for a year in order to upgrade coaches.

YOHONOMOTO

For reals. Mark Pope now has more rent free space to live than Pope Francis for Pete’s sake. Cougar fans let him move in

My guess is it'll be similar to Pope's but better next year.

I think what connects with recruits

theonick

I had that same thought. And it scares me a bit.

brj8

On the upside he’s got guys for that too

theonick

9:16am

Yeah our last guy was a hype guy and we had zero postseason wins.

BYU '80

zero NCAA tournament wins, Pope had some NIT wins

cwilke1

Technically we won some games in conference tourneys.

Didnt he resign & then take the Arkansas job so no buy out was needed?

Kolipoki

8:53am

Yes there was no buyout.

kimdaddy35

Wow, that was cold (and awesome). UK got nothing.

But Calipari owes Kentucky nothing if he left which he did. Arkansas did not pay

True

Adrielle

Who's to say he isn't a better college coach and recruiter though?

ochobeeguy

I'm not disagreeing with that sentiment. The learning curve on that end will be steep for Kevin Young.

Preppy Truly Addicted User

Pick the question is... Does BYU now allow donations to go to one specific sport, or do all donations still go to

Adrielle

8:41am

I don't know. Historically no, correct? I wonder if Smith cares as much about FB, or if he's just a basketball guy

Preppy

BYU can't be dependent on 1 guy. In the past I've seen Qualtics ads at FB games.
