I hear the Cougartail-eating kid was a huge reason why Young accepted the job.

Plantagenet

I mean…I saw at least 10 CBers say they were interested in coaching

Rexy Coug

I mean, obviously that was a positive spin by BYU and they wouldn't admit

cougarfan84

1:36pm

Whelp. That was dumb from Araujo

RSL 429 Too Many Requests

1:31pm

what a massive call. Red card, no pen given

RSL

1:32pm

Went down too easy imo

coug10278

1:32pm

sure, but Araujo lost the debate when he reached his arm out and grabbed the shoulder

RSL

1:34pm

Sure...maybe even more the touch right before foul so felt like he had 2 call

coug10278

1:36pm

From behind. I want Barca to win, but I think that ws perfect officiating.

YSMACK

1:37pm

Super stupid.

YSMACK

1:32pm

I think it is called right. Red, free kick. Goal would be better than red.

YSMACK

1:34pm

At least it was outside the box. Gotta park the bus for the next hour.

HingleMcCringleberry

1:33pm

I would rather concede a goal than a red for an hour.

YSMACK

1:34pm

It was very soft. Barcola went down way too easy, but can’t really blame the ref

babycarrot

1:35pm

I don't think that is soft at all. Arujo is completely behind and interferes

YSMACK

1:36pm

He reached out from behind and grabbed the shoulder. I agree it was soft contact but the right call

I'd be ok if he left in several years after a successful tenure at BYU.

Hard to tell. Is the crown gone? Has it been gone?

RSL

1:25pm

The crown LES had in the 80s and 90s has been gone for a long time.

HuskerFan2

1:27pm

No more crown at all?

RSL

1:28pm

I went down and looked at field level. No crown at all, at least not for now.

Yllage Vidiot

1:34pm

Just a small one the last time I was at field level.

Crown?

Very minimal crown that I can see. But they’re down to the way sublevel at this point.

I have never once considered it a power move. If it happens I assume it was by accident or they thought it was wrapped

My only worry about Coach Young is can he adapt his NBA scheme to college ball?

I totally understand that concern, but for some reason I'm not worried about

I'm more worried about him adapting to recruiting than X's and O's
