Turnpike Lane Monday Morning Quarterback

Ask Fehlberg what happens when an AD tries to be aggressive in his position. You don't last.

Unfortunately, that is true. Limits creativity, production etc.

He’s been fine but I feel he and the AD absolutely blew the Big XII opportunity

Hoax

9/15/20 9:55am

This has been rehashed too many times but no one has any idea what happened

cougfan03

9/15/20 9:57am

There have been some clues

TNT

9/15/20 9:58am

Because he’s in charge of the AD and we has an opportunity.

He didn't. The Board of Trustees did. And I don't think they care one bit...

Anybody that actually thought BYU had a chance is fooling themselves.

So why would the Big 12 have been negotiating with BYU in 2011? For funsies?

Can TNT comment about that Jennifer Aniston character?

Sure.

They didn’t negotiate.

They did negotiate

TNT

Possibly. They held a 16 team expansion pageant in 2016 just for funsies.

bluesloth

Yes 2016 was for funsies

I feel like the BOT blew it, not Tom.

He's tried hard. There just aren't a lot of options for BYU right now.

I don't think you could have picked a worse time to make this argument.

So Could you clarify, are you saying that Holmoe gets credit for Covid 19

Blue2thebone

9/15/20 2:14pm

He gets credit for recognizing that our interests and the MWC’s are not aligned.

All-American

So are you going to follow this up with why you feel that way?

I'm not a fan of Holmoe at all... I still think he needs to consider hanging it up...

The vision starts from the top down. The BOT need to invest in sports and the rest follows.

I agree with coug. TH has done a good job. No where near fantastic.

TheWoodman

He may be but he is also one of the most well connected AD's in the country

SnickSnack

This is not the year to break in a rookie AD

We are lucky to have Tom Holmoe. There is no evidence he or anyone else
