Avery

3:52pm

The honor code today ...

BYU Fan

3:54pm

And to be fair, I don't think it was super strict 20 years ago either

BYU Fan

4:01pm

Don’t know…. Was at BYU a little over 20 years ago, HC wasn’t a big deal

NorCal_Coug

3:54pm

I think it's just less public. At least that's my hope.

Cougforgood

3:58pm

One thing changed it all. You can't report things anonymously

stansburycoug

3:59pm

Looked up when that might have changed. May of 2019?

woodymullet

I don't think it's black and white.

If you think about all the things they allowed Jim Mcmahon to do I'd say more.

question for baseball people and left handed weirdos in general:

riboflavin

3:47pm

He's 5. He will figure it out. A lot of left-handers do a lot with their right.

fbguru

3:51pm

I would tell him to start throwing left all the time. If he is that comfortable

Blue for Life

3:51pm

IMO, catching is much harder than throwing

tarzan15

3:52pm

Go lefty. It’s a huge advantage in sports like Baseball and Tennis

doodle_all_day

3:52pm

Except those that throw lefty can't play 3B, SS, 2B or Catcher...

JDBlue

3:57pm

I'm a lefty but favor my right a lot as well (pushed into it at a young age). I

Team Chaos

Are you planning for his future in MLB? Or just curious about him playing?

Eddie

Sorry - intended this to be under OP.

riboflavin

4:00pm

I wouldn't force him at all.

Eddie

4:02pm

yeah, it just sucks buying a lefty glove for him to try lol

riboflavin

4:03pm

Outside of pitcher, right handed people can play more positions in baseball.

TheWanderer

3:55pm

My left-handed son threw right-handed until he was almost 9 then switched

JDBlue

3:59pm

Why would you do anything other than let him do what comes naturally?

gangbusters

4:02pm

we can't tell what's natural for him. he's 100% left handed except for throwing

riboflavin

4:06pm

This is actually really good. Have him catch and field as a Righty and Hit as a

Tesla Model S Plaid

silent_t

I've looked at those a bit. I like to hear my car so not sure on the Plaid.

Tonto

3:41pm

He said fast and fun. Not fast and boring.

Moops

3:52pm

Forget about the 4-people thing. Just get a "final year" Camaro with the performance package.

Division Bell

3:39pm

"Seats four people comfortably mid-life crisis car" is an oxymoronic phrase.

Cougar Junkie

3:41pm

Yeah it probably is. 4 seats comfortably isn't a true necessity. Just trying

CatamountFan

The RS7 and the RS6 Avant are also on my short list.

Tonto

3:50pm

on a sheer horsepower & torque basis, it is very tough to beat the S and RS Audi

mobicurious

3:55pm

I'm not completely against the Plaid or an EV. I have a feeling if I drove one

Don Carlton

Is Booker a generational player? If not why bother. Tank! Tank! Tank!

TNT

3:37pm

Not enough first round picks

The Pope

3:37pm

That's way too much to give up for Booker.

Jeffacka

3:40pm

I love it! Closer to BYU to visit and work on his game at BYU practice facility.

JohnnyC

3:40pm

Why does he need to practice at BYU?

Jeffacka

3:43pm

I’m sure these guys continue work on their game while they are still playing.

Probably

Ghost Pirate LeChuck

CougGolf

3:45pm

Giving up way too much

TADOW

3:47pm

Why would Booker get more than the haul for Don?

I'mBatman

3:51pm

So we'll give up every asset we have for 1 player?

Coug

3:52pm

For that many 1st round picks no way. Maybe 2 but no more than that.

Blue for Life

3:53pm

The going rate for an All-star is a young player and 3-4 picks.

BoiseBlue

CBB: mostly just whoever has the biggest boosters wins. So much fun!!

Mitty

Agreed. The current system sucks.

Iman23

Meh. Been the same forever. Kentucky, Kansas, UNC and UCLA were good

macdizzle

Cougar TD

That was amazing footage...but why does he only talk in a yell the whole time?

Because the wind is deafening

Crowton wasn’t a HC at any level before going to BYU, unlike KY.

MountainJ84

2:58pm

He was HC at La. Tech.

Jeffacka

2:59pm

Right, but other than that...

BYUtka

3:02pm

The fact remains - he had been a head coach.

Jeffacka

Not if you exclude the times he was a Head Coach.

BYUtka
