7:10am

I take back my kind words with the Chandler flip. This stinks. I should say I'm

vabeachcoug

7:50am

Sucks, but I thought Chandler was gone as soon as Pope left.

Shinshin

7:48am

In hindsight, Pope wasted 5 years of our time.

Warner

7:47am

It could have been a lot worse.

Shinshin

7:50am

I mean, we beat some good teams. A couple of those GU wins were pretty fun.

Leonardo

7:51am

Public Enemy #1 is no longer Whittingham, now it's Pompous Pope!

aaronmania

7:47am

Chandler is gone.

bornbyu93

I hope UK goes 1-29 next year.

RE: Chandler is gone.

I'd bet that most of Pope's damage to our program is done.

In Attiki, Stewart and tripple we trust. Bring it home boys

Chefcurry

In honor of today's events, I am eliminating the word "super" from my vocabulary

TunaOne

7:45am

I am ammenable to Kevin Young as the next head coach, however what is the reasonable expectation for the length of

Adrielle Board Misanthrope

7:44am

If he does great enough to warrant an NBA Head Coaching Hire after BYU

RockyBalboa

7:48am

Why all the hate on Cougarboard lately, can't we all just get along? Coaches

Syre

7:44am

Yeah, the problem is that BYU is trying to build to the top while others are

Powerbait DPM

7:46am

Burgess v Young

Elvis

7:44am

Both

Crowd Factor

7:45am

Burgess would be more likely to bring recruits with him and we hate that

Belboz

7:45am

Maybe Young would bring Booker or KD?

ballen

7:46am

What recruits would we want? Wahlin?

BYU '80

7:47am

None that Burgess recruited for another school

Belboz

7:50am

Young. Burgess biggest appeal was maybe helping keep recruits. That obviously

cougaman

7:45am

I don't think one can reasonably say that Burgess can't keep guys at BYU...Just because they are in the portal

Adrielle

7:48am

Would Young be a Crowton hire?

Soupie

7:45am

Both of them. Young as HC, Burgess back with a raise and AHC title

Mexicougazul

7:45am

That would be cool.

ballen

7:47am

Young!

coolblue

7:48am

Pope brings players from BYU= Sweet. Pope takes guys to KY=

fattycoug

7:42am

There will be players who commit to whoever our new coach is

SUAVO

7:45am

New to fandom I take it?

Beggar

7:46am

Remember all the CBers who mocked the thought of any BYU recruit ever being

Buffalo

7:41am

Any idiot would know Chandler is Kentucky level

fattycoug

7:42am

Pope is just recruiting his own players.

WJCougar

7:43am

We can’t have nice things

Croweater

7:46am

Watching the “wish him well” crowd finally turn on Pope

YOHONOMOTO

7:40am

People who don't expect Pope try to win at Kentucky are unrealistic

Belboz

Now we know how uvu felt

* Utah Tech.

Division Bell

7:38am

UVU ended up with a better coach. Hopefully we do as well

johnnybyu

7:39am

Yep. As a UVU fan it is deja vu for sure.

TunaOne

7:42am

I don't UVU actually feels things.

zonacougar

7:42am

I find it darkly amusing that "nice guy" BYU is hoping to land the 5* former recruit, who spurned BYU twice, as a coach

Division Bell Recovering

WJCougar

7:41am

Oh No

mjmill All-American

7:36am

Byu needs a lifer, like few, Bennett, drew. I think madsen could have been that

Idacoug

7:33am

I didn't know that. He wanted out as soon as he got in? What's the story

Don Carlton

7:34am

It’s not that he disliked byu, but he was looking to climb ladder…quickly.

Idacoug

7:36am

A coach who wins less than he loses would be less likely to choose to leave

Belboz

7:35am

We had that, his name was Dave Rose and it doesn't work out

OC Coug

7:38am

It’s a huge gamble. BYU’s coaching pool is so small.

Idacoug

7:40am

When you get a lifer, you find yourself wanting someone hungrier, with ambition

RevolutionDeathsquad

7:46am

Lifers are mostly a thing of the past

RockyBalboa

7:47am

Sucks to be excited about a recruit for years and never have him play.

ballen

7:32am

At least Adams gave us that one jump shot.

Santiago HIRED pope with toms blessing.

Idacoug

He's never right.

Zombre

Santiago should've left byu a long time ago

Nick emery was right….the erickson family was right….Utah AAU coaches were right

I think someone posted the idea yesterday but I'd be looking

Don Carlton

7:31am

Not sure it would be enforceable, including from a practical standpoint. How do

Shinshin

7:33am

You don't. He still has to pay up if Chandler goes to Kentucky. Doesn't matter

Don Carlton

7:35am

Likely would violate anti trust laws.

Yes bad idea, don't restrict player movement, the only thing that can

Chandler wanted to play for pope not necessarily byu.

cougarfann888

7:36am

Still don't think it's a good look.

Was it a bad look when he brought uvu players? Or when hill borough

Nah. Kevin Young can get byu better next year than this year.

Assuming Young is the hire, why would Burgess come here as AC again?

Connections from Young, all about connections.

Swag Kazekage

Because Utah sucks.

Would be funny if he turned into a 20/10 guy. I can see it.

Why can’t Kalani leave and take the QB room.

This is one of the must frustrating moments I’ve had as a BYU fan.

I also tried to be kind in heart. But I hate Pope.

jamesallenrocks

I can't post what I just texted a friend about Pope.

The Mark Pope era should be remembered as exciting, frustrating, but not great.

TADOW Truly Addicted User

If that’s a realistic goal, then he’s definitely not wrong in this move. But it

blackandblue

7:21am

I'm sure that's the goal. No way it happens.

JuicyJam

7:22am

Collin Chandler averaged 19ppg in high school. He's not a one and done.

mokelembembe

7:22am

Now imagine if he rides the pine in year 1 now (likely) lol.

RdF3

7:23am

IDK he comes home in a couple weeks. A lot of time to get back in shape

Soupie

7:28am

I hope he fulfills his dream but not many guys are one and done.

Don Carlton

“Improbable” is being nice

Saxa

7:27am

If true, that family is delusional.

NorthBayCoug

7:29am

They all are, tho.

Madam Pattirini

7:30am

Yep if that is the goal should not have gone on a mission. Unless he is 7'6''

johnnybyu

7:38am

I mean, if D league is his goal, 1 and done it. Very few ever are able to 1 and done it, especially after a mission

Coug

7:41am

Given Pope’s track record for putting players in the NBA, it’s understandable he

Pepe

7:46am

He was a 4-star recruit, #33 overall, and hasn’t played ball in 2+ years

Medute

7:48am

Sad that Chandler didn't even wait around for the new coach

Don Carlton

7:19am

Pope must do what's best for Kentucky. That's his job.

Belboz

7:20am

Yeah I agree. That's true and we would probably all do the same thing.

Don Carlton

7:22am

If BYU hires a coach who puts other schools in front of BYU, we'll be irritated

Belboz

7:23am

True, but BYU fans don’t have to like what he’s doing or cheer for Pope.

JJCoug

7:23am

Why do we always excuse this guy? We would not all do what he's doing. There's

Blueto

It’s what Pope has always done. Why change now?

People blame NIL on everything. What did this have to do with NIL?

TCuz

7:19am

Without NIL players wouldn’t be hopping into the portal after every season

boorad

7:21am

Sure they would. But again, absolutely nothing to do with Collin Chandler and Pope.

TCuz

7:23am

I don’t remember saying anything about pope or Chandler in my post.

boorad

7:24am

It was clearly a reaction to that. But again, very little of BYU’s current problems have to do with NIL.

TCuz

7:27am

NIL with no contracts and an at will transfer portal are ruining it.

Could be a deal breaker.

I think you guys are all being taken for a ride.

This is why he ghosted everyone
