[Y's Guys Podcast] Y’s Guys

7:10am

College sports are dead. What we believed was special about BYU and a

IGlowInTheDark

7:28am

Some of you people need therapy for how much hand-wringing you do over everything.

jacobugath INSUFFERABLE KNOW IT ALL

7:28am

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

Croweater

7:27am

Connections from Young, all about connections.

Swag Kazekage

7:28am

Help us healthy Dawson Baker

mjmill All-American

7:27am

The sky is officially falling!

SeattleBYUfan

7:27am

We will be just fine. We still have this guy and he will never leave us:

ColdFusion1989

7:26am

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

Don Carlton

7:27am

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

ordinary tri guy

7:25am

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

Icelandic Cougar

7:24am

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

jamesallenrocks

7:26am

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

gangbusters

7:27am

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

Madam Pattirini

7:28am

Dragging a chainsaw. I must of missed something.

conetah

7:28am

Collin Chandler to KY is official.

Madam Pattirini

7:28am

Whoever our new coach is

DreamerCoug

7:23am

Whoever it is will have a better post season winning % than pope

CougarForLife

7:25am

For them to do what? Have their roster turn over complete each year and then

IGlowInTheDark

7:25am

We were all going to hope that he fails spectacularly, but since you posted this ...

jacobugath

7:26am

I will thumbs ut that

Belboz

7:27am

Good Mourning, CB?

zonacougar Medium Rare

7:22am

RE: Good Mourning, CB?

IGlowInTheDark

7:23am

Our future/current roster….

IGlowInTheDark

7:20am

Good riddance…Coach winless Po(st season)pe

CougarForLife

7:20am

The man didn’t even get us a single win in March

mjmill All-American

7:19am

Well that's not true

Belboz

7:21am

LOL the type of wins in March that matter

mjmill

7:21am

I thought you meant he didn't get even a single win in March

Belboz

7:22am

Jeeze, chill.

conetah

7:24am

RE: Unfortunately, the "Kentucky wouldn't recruit Chandler" posts sound similar

porl thompson

7:19am

My dad plays golf with Chandler’s grandpa

TADOW Truly Addicted User

7:19am

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

7:25am

“Improbable” is being nice

Saxa

7:27am

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'd 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

7:27am

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

Soupie

7:20am

I thought Chandler was still on his mission?

ordinary tri guy

7:19am

These days, mission kids are contacted all the time. I am sure the family set it up

TADOW

7:20am

Can contact through parents if nothing else. Yesterday was P day after all.

Soupie

7:21am

Monday’s are PDay right? Wheelin NIL deals on Pday - not bad Elder…

Riggins Rigs

7:24am

CB reaction in GIF form at end of season?

MajorZeus

7:18am

There is a reason I don’t really give a crap about pro basketball. NIL is making

boorad

7:17am

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.

blackandblue

7:20am

Genuinely praying on popes downfall

Icelandic Cougar

BYU Basketball 2024-2025

Phred84044

7:16am

Well Guys...we have our answer why Popey never issued a gracious appreciation post going out the door

CLCougar Truly Addicted User

7:16am

No, you still issue a statement. He didn’t b/c he’s a classless car salesman.

rivercitycoug

7:19am

You like getting peed on and being told it’s rain? I don’t.

CouchPotato

7:28am

But I was assured that Kentucky does NOT recruit the same players as BYU.

hardcorecoug

7:15am

They don’t. Kids as good as Chandler normally don’t choose byu. But Chandler did.

RdF3

7:16am

Now Kentucky recruits LDS players because their coach is LDS. “Normally don’t”

hardcorecoug

7:18am

*Player

foofcoug

7:20am

Yeah we can only hope. Give it time unfortunately

hardcorecoug

7:24am

An one in every 2 decade or so talent.

foofcoug

7:26am

I think Pope had already recruited Chandler for years

Belboz

7:19am

Welcome Collin Chandler to the BYU transfer portal class of 2026

TCuz Coastal Elite

7:14am

Yep. This just crossed my mind.

d-coug

7:15am

Hey coach Pope:

HRCougar

7:14am

I like it. We should all get him a going away present.

CougarForLife

7:17am

Good morning!

letthewookieewin Walking Carpet

7:13am

Hey, at least Chandler didn't end up at Utah...

foofcoug

7:13am

People being level headed about this:

Icelandic Cougar

7:12am

Players follow coaches, this is not at all surprising.

VACougMD

7:11am

Not surprising, but still sucks

Shinshin

7:13am

Pope is now Whittingham status

mjmill All-American

7:11am

At this moment in time, we’re looking at 10 wins on the season.

Icelandic Cougar

7:10am

All OOC.

Soupie

7:15am

There’s no gracious “goodbye” tweet that’s compatible with poaching Chandler.

d-coug

7:10am

Pope doesn’t last more than 3 years if this is his recruiting strategy.

Swag Kazekage All-American

7:08am

Chandler is a Kentucky caliber player

Shinshin

7:09am

Sad but true. And I hope UK loses every game.

Lalau

7:11am

Chandler is probably the exception.

Norseman

7:10am

Wasnt Chandler a few spots out of being a McDonald’s all American?

Kdubb

7:11am

Yes. He's an elite athlete and can score at all 3 levels

RockyBalboa

7:13am

He needs to stop the Kentucky bleeding. Many decommits. Transfers.

WallaX2

7:13am

I liked it when he was noble bringing Toolsen with him from UVU.

Goatnapper'96

7:13am

I'd bet good money Toolson was going to leave UVU that season no matter what.

JuicyJam

7:15am

Let me clarify, I get Chandler is legit, but you are freaking Kentucky Pope. You can get anyone or you should be able to

Swag Kazekage

7:14am

I doubt Chandler is an innocent bystander here. He probably got excited thinking he could be a scholarship player at a

WDaddy

7:17am

This had extreme circumstances, but know pre-mission signings mean nothing now

Kdubb

pegushin

7:08am

Oh Boy, here comes the cb meltdown

FT487

7:04am

This one is kind of appropriate imo

DanSmith

7:07am

And it’s justified. Losing our biggest recruit in years is a big deal.

rivercitycoug

7:07am

I’d say given the circumstance it is justifiable

Swag Kazekage

7:07am

…this is likely why no “thank you” post…at least not the type we had imagined

gaspasscoug

7:11am

Let me be the first to post: "Nice choice, Chandler."

Hambone

7:02am

Pope is dead to me. Hope he loses every game

Zombre

7:02am

All the guys who will cheer for pope are probably pretty pumped about things

Ojiisan

7:09am

Forget about naming a head coach.....it's too late.

chirocoug

7:14am

Chandler to Kentucky....

mokelembembe All-American

7:01am

Well that sucks.

rebelCoug

7:02am

It’s official. I hate Pope.

Swag Kazekage

7:04am

He was only okay for BYU, and he's tearing everything he can from BYU on his way

fbguru

7:05am

Honestly, if he is bringing BYU guys to Kentucky, I love BYU and I love our guys and the perfect for our team, but he is

Swag Kazekage

7:06am

This one guy is good for Ky.

Madam Pattirini

7:21am

Yeah, this does it for me. He can get half a roster of 5-stars every year at Kentucky and he steals the biggest recruit

SingleStrapBackpack

7:10am

Does that mean Burgess isn't coming? Wasn't previous concern that he'd go to Utah because of Burgess?

Jimo Dashen

7:04am

Well he is not going to Utah

johnnybyu

7:10am

Rot in hades Pope

pegushin

7:05am

I thought he liked burgess more than pope

TRUE_BLUE_COUGY

7:20am

FWIW, i've heard for more than a year now that BYU was out of the running

dryflyelk

7:27am

I don't get why Kevin Young would want to coach at BYU. The only thing

rebelCoug

7:01am

College coaching jobs are more stable, especially at BYU. Maybe his wife wants

dYrtbYkerYder

Should I be exited about Kevin Young?

Chester Copperpot

I think so. Lots of NBA experience

Skeptical Optimist

7:02am

You should stick around.

porl thompson

7:11am

Chandler to UK

CougarForLife

6:59am

Darn. Hope he kills it at Kentucky.

Kdubb

7:01am

And that Kentucky loses every game anyway.

fbguru

7:06am

This kind of seems out of left field, no?

Icelandic Cougar

7:01am

Not really. It was coming sooner or later.

RockyBalboa

7:02am

Three words

Ted Lasso

7:01am

Noooo

TarCoug

7:07am

Wonder how UK fans will react when they find out the meaning of mission legs

GlutealGuy

7:09am

Ouch! A real gut punch. Hurts bad. Next season is in the toilet.

DawgHaus

7:12am

Well, his mission IG was just photos yesterday w/ no message. Guess we know what his call/email was about.

Soupie

7:13am

Thank you for your "sleuthing" and insightful posts. Solid.

DawgHaus

7:17am

So, how can I hit the Sad Face and Down Thumb about 50x ea? Painful.
