If he had no restrictions on who he could hire, I guarantee the pool would have included plenty of nice, experienced coaches.

Being a good AD really comes down to a couple decisions

Kalani isn’t a whiff. So far a single. Hope he gets extra bases this year.

A single, strike out, and another single.

9 wins is a double. 10 a triple. Any above an HR. So double, SO, single.

9 is a double? CB has very unrealistic expectations

A strike out? He hit into a triple play.

So true. The BYU AD has at least one hand tied behind his back at all times.

I think Tom gets to pick the coach but still has to get some level of approval

Not only with coaching hires but other decisions

I’m pretty sure we’d be further behind had we stayed in the MWC. Further, Holmoe

Wrong. If BYU had stayed, they’d have told the Big 12 “where

That hurts too much to even consider

I hadn't thought about that. Thanks for the gut punch.

This. The knee jerk reaction to Utahs invite to the P12 was his undoing

You assume the Big XII would have extended an offer.

Everyone knows offers in these situations only get extended when

The flaw in your thinking is you still think it would have been Tom Holmoe's

The university President, the BOT. The BOT trumps all.

In the words of Rhondo Fehlberg, the BYU AD has all the responsibility and none

FanofBYU

Sure. You assume we would have reached that point absent independence. I haven’t

gwalker

8/5/19 9:19am

You think the Big 12 was talking to BYU BECAUSE it was independent? Indy had

How did you jump to that conclusion of what I am thinking? I think the Big XII

gwalker

8/5/19 9:56am

So, BYU would've had the same demands if it didn't go independent?

You don't know what demands BYU had. That's my point. The only things you

Uh it was pretty obvious in Holmoe's address during the Oregon State game in '11

You and I must be speaking different languages. There isn't anything there that

Consider who's speaking. If BYUtv wasn't an issue, you flat out say so as the AD

You left out conference affiliation

I don’t think the AD has much influence on Conference Affiliation
