I just watched his speech at the Broyles Award Banquet and he’s dynamic. (It’s about 1 minute into the video after his introduction). He should be able to maintain the trajectory that McBride, Meyer and Whittingham have the Utah program on.

Maybe initially using Whitt's players, we will see how well he recruits though

For years, he’s been the best recruiter at Utah.

That’s what they said about Sitake

With Sitake, The problem is the product he’s selling, not the salesman

Easier to sell when the product isn’t on your shoulders?

I mean selling kids on BYU is harder than selling kids on Utah.

He’s an interesting one because unlike 99.9% of coaches he’s actually smart

cougfanz

Only 0.1% of football coaches are smart

Yes, but Utah has far less than .01 percent

Yea I went a little overboard on the percent..

How long would he be at Utah? Would a bigger program snatch him up?

Doubt it. Guys replacing the program legend never keep the trajectory.

tOSU is not a comparison to Utah since they had many coaches do it over decades.

He could start communicating plays to the field using interpretive dance.

BYU fans are selling him short mostly because of his comments about BYU...He is capable. I would take him as HC today...
