Honestly Pope interviewing twice with AZ takes the shine off him a little for me

would you take a different job that paid you an extra million of two?

It depends on a lot of factors. What I make currently, career goals etc

A lot of factors? For an extra $1-$2 million? No way

For Pope it very well would probably be the best move/easy decision. Would wreck

Shouldn't BYU be an attractive job though?

Of course he can leave. But would take the shine off him. Why wouldn't it?

If you're already making 1 million, another million really doesn't matter.

$1MM isn't what it used to be, so no I disagree.

Not necessarily. I’m almost the same age as Pope and make good money. So for 50%

LOL. Let the guy interview elsewhere. Did you just expect him to never see what

I have no problem with that. I even said as much in my post. You have to listen.

Mark Few never interviewed anywhere. This makes it very clear he will not be

I think we like to think that BYU is the dream job for people. Always sucks when

the job offers millions more over time... I would agree with you if pay were similar.

I don't disagree. But IF, big IF he were to leave it would be a lesson for BYU

I get that. But BYU, with missions etc we need 5yr coaches at min.
Grit for Brains

I say let's swing for the fences by always grabbing the best coach we can. If he jumps ship after 2 years, then so be it
HarlemCoug

Then we should hire below average coaches.

That's fine. Is there a pipeline of successful LDS bball coaches to take over?

Does Pope care about a stable of LDS coaches?

If Holmoe is smart (and he is), he's already looking at who can come next

Truly hope it just gets BYU to do what we need to to keep him. Hope that’s wha

We want coaches who are good enough to leave for better jobs, but don’t actually do so

Fandom makes us irrational. You’d do the same in your career too. And it’s his career.

Nearly everybody is a job hopper. And we don’t pay close to enough to prevent it.

Good call. TNT agrees with the new father on CB

You need to rethink your position relative to the CBB landscape

We can only afford to hire winners, and Pope is a winner. I hope he stays forever, but am not delusional

I’m OK w/ him interviewing once. But twice? That tells me he won’t be here long

I don't expect him to be loyal unless BYU is loyal to him.

I must have missed something...he interviewed for the AZ job?

Did he proactively apply or did AZ reach out to to him? If they reached out, then of course you interview.
