7:10am

How many people were saying that Pope isn't going to be recruiting against us

archie

8:07am

The Pope's snub/Chandler loss don't bother me. Seeing the team fall apart does.

Blog: Collin Chandler Decommits From BYU, Commits to Kentucky View

[Vanquish the Foe]

8:07am

I have no sources, but I don’t see why Kevin Young would take the job

ballen

It shouldn't be a surprise to some, but players have greater allegiances to

Schrodizzy

All the swears!

TheAirForceCoug

I didn't get anyone still wishing Pope well at Kentucky. Why do you care he does

Cougar TD

8:03am

Because is pays tithing 😀

Colorado

8:05am

Does he though?

Swag Kazekage

8:07am

Quite the deal between Pope/BYU

The Y's Insider

1 NCAA game? And what thank you card?

coug10278

8:04am

Pope gave us 2 NCAA games in six years.

cwilke1

8:04am

How did they give him a lighter and a gas can?

Bin01015

8:07am

There’s no denying this SUCKSSSS so bad. BUT

DanSmith

8:03am

Mark Pope came here from UVU and brought his best players and coaches with him.

jacobugath INSUFFERABLE KNOW IT ALL

8:02am

Chandler was always more of a Pope commit than a BYU commit.

porl thompson

8:06am

Truth is BYU isn’t as special to some as it is to many of us. Some people were

TarCoug

8:02am

If Chandler is good enough for the NBA he'd make it from BYU & B12 oh well

coug10278

8:06am

I expected to lose all our players and our recruits, but it still hurts seeing

archie

8:02am

Kentucky, Pope, Matt Leinart, and my brother. Lessons learned from being average

carlstud

8:02am

He dodged a bullet. She ended up being a gross person

chismoso

8:04am

I strongly dislike posts like this

Blueto

8:05am

Someone needs to pop their head into Chandler’s apartment window and tell him

royal_blue

8:01am

Is Kevin Young a BYU alum?

MajorZeus

8:00am

No.

Good luck to Chandler / Pope - I'm excited for the future with Kevin Young

I'm with you...NEXT. Let's get it together BYU and move on

vabeachcoug

8:07am

Wham, Bam, Thank you man, ahhh le freek! It was a nice 5 year run actually 2

Syre

7:59am

The break-up is very painful. Pope is burning it down to ashes.

DawgHaus

8:00am

I think it is more like packing up his suitcases and returning home.

Syre

8:02am

True. And kicking the BYU dog on the way out the door. Painful.

DawgHaus

8:06am

It's Kentucky...Chandler is grabbing his bags too $$$$

vabeachcoug

7:58am

Yikes. I'm upset but hate...Nah. Highly disappointed and deflated. Yes

vabeachcoug

7:57am

Sports hate is ok.

hooscoug

8:02am

yeah, that's true. The Lakers.

vabeachcoug

8:03am

Love stinks

4slyce

7:57am

Sucks, but I still think this is what happens when coaches leave. Ask Utah State

conetah

7:56am

I gotta say, it sucks waiting 2 years to have Chandler not even play here.

VirginiaPeanut

7:56am

athletes should get exempt.

Deleted

7:57am

Chandler was getting NIL from BYU the whole time without even playing.

MHallDidNothingWr0ng

7:58am

Then that makes him a schmuck

BYU '80

7:59am

really?

vabeachcoug

8:00am

Terrible. Painful.

DawgHaus

8:01am

that would be so shady

chismoso

8:02am

😤🤬🤯

DawgHaus

8:04am

Collin Chandler wants to go the NBA? Will someone remind him Pope has coached nobody that’s in the NBA and Kevin Young

RdF3 Inactive user

7:56am

Kids don't think that deeply. It's NIL and name on the jersey first and foremost

gangbusters

7:58am

I'm texting him right now.

jacobugath

7:58am

I think the Kentucky name alone gets more ears from scouts than most coaches

SUAVO

7:59am

Hire Kevin and then give him Chandler's mission cell #

Zombre

8:04am

Should we show up at the airport when Pope comes back for his things?

CougarForLife

7:56am

With pitchforks and torches. Probably should. Ha ha ha!

DawgHaus

7:57am

If we can keep our core together from this year and go out in the portal and

Don Carlton

7:56am

I now know why Pope didn't give a thank you to BYU when he left. Why make nice

MHallDidNothingWr0ng

7:55am

Takin Collin Chandler is a gut punch. Hurts bad.

DawgHaus

7:59am

Give hall/saunders chandlers NIL. $ . This might make me feel a little better

gmoney7 All-American

7:53am

Hall has mid six figure offers coming in via the portal. Doubt we can match

Mexicougazul

7:54am

He already made 6 figures this year. We have the money.

Mjolnir

7:55am

$500k?

Mexicougazul

<< Deleted >>

Mexicougazul

7:55am

I wouldn’t be surprised if Pope let Chandler know that money wasn’t really there

Kdubb

7:56am

Pope was the one that blew it with Ques. He was the one over promising

BYU '80

7:58am

Exactly. Who’s to say he didn’t do the same with Chandler?

Kdubb

8:00am

Cougarboard.

crimedog Hater of Bernard

7:53am

I take back my kind words with the Chandler flip. This stinks. I should say I'm

vabeachcoug

7:50am

Sucks, but I thought Chandler was gone as soon as Pope left.

Shinshin

7:48am

Honestly, I never thought for a second he would play for BYU at all even with Pope at BYU

Coug

7:53am

Not a bad theory. Could see that as true.

BYUHgrad

7:55am

holding his scholarship isn't a thing. With the transfer portal, every program

cwilke1

7:57am

I just felt he was never going to play for BYU... he committed as a placeholder of sorts

Coug

7:58am

even under the old days, a newly returned missionary was free to get out of his

cwilke1

8:02am

In hindsight, Pope wasted 5 years of our time.

Warner

7:47am

It could have been a lot worse.

Shinshin

7:50am

Yeah imagine underperforming in the WCC year after year and finishing 5th?

Forbidden Fruit

8:06am

I mean, we beat some good teams. A couple of those GU wins were pretty fun.

Leonardo

7:51am

I think he only beat them once. Maybe I’m wrong

BYU '80

7:55am

This year was fun and we clearly exceeded expectations in the Big 12

Skeptical Optimist

7:52am

And where did it leave us

YOHONOMOTO

7:58am

With a fun year that exceeded expectations in the Big 12

Skeptical Optimist

8:02am

Can you go from 3rd in the WCC to 5th in the big12 and not grow the program?

SUAVO

7:57am

He actually went from 5th in the WCC to 6th in the WCC to 5th in an overrated

YOHONOMOTO

7:59am

So fun seeing CB come around to the truth.

YOHONOMOTO

7:58am

Rose wouldn't have done what Pope did in the Big 12.

BlueFever

8:00am

You don’t know that. Rose was far more accomplished than Pope

BYU '80

Public Enemy #1 is no longer Whittingham, now it's Pompous Pope!

aaronmania

7:47am

Here's the difference between whit and Pope

Blueto

Chandler is gone.

I hope UK goes 1-29 next year.

I'd bet that most of Pope's damage to our program is done.

Mostlyaccurate

In Attiki, Stewart and tripple we trust. Bring it home boys

Chefcurry

7:45am

In honor of today's events, I am eliminating the word "super" from my vocabulary

TunaOne

I am ammenable to Kevin Young as the next head coach, however what is the reasonable expectation for the length of

Adrielle Board Misanthrope

7:44am

If he does great enough to warrant an NBA Head Coaching Hire after BYU

RockyBalboa

7:48am

At least until after the 2024 nba playoffs are over. June-ish

wisconsincougs

7:52am

Both good/bad scenarios would be in play. He's good....but goes NBA. Or maybe he's just average...doesn't like

mokelembembe

7:56am

Why all the hate on Cougarboard lately, can't we all just get along? Coaches

Syre

7:44am

Yeah, the problem is that BYU is trying to build to the top while others are

Powerbait DPM

7:46am

I'm not interested in rebuilding every five years and then knocking everything down when it's only half-completed.

Brisco

8:06am

Burgess v Young

Elvis

7:44am

Both

Crowd Factor

7:45am

Burgess would be more likely to bring recruits with him and we hate that

Belboz

7:45am

Maybe Young would bring Booker or KD?

ballen

7:46am

What recruits would we want? Wahlin?

BYU '80

7:47am

None that Burgess recruited for another school

Belboz

7:50am

Young. Burgess biggest appeal was maybe helping keep recruits. That obviously

cougaman

7:45am

I don't think one can reasonably say that Burgess can't keep guys at BYU...Just because they are in the portal

Adrielle

7:48am

Burgess cannot do anything unless hired.

Elvis

7:56am

Why would Burgess come be an assistant to a guy younger than he

Elvis

7:59am

Would Young be a Crowton hire?

Soupie

7:45am

Both of them. Young as HC, Burgess back with a raise and AHC title

Mexicougazul

7:45am

That would be cool.

ballen

7:47am

Young!

coolblue

7:48am

Playing at the D2 D3 level in college is actually a good indicator for a success

Mostlyaccurate

7:53am

One has personal relationships with KD and Book. You say that to any high school

JosephAllenMaldonado

7:54am

Pope brings players from BYU= Sweet. Pope takes guys to KY=

fattycoug

7:42am

There will be players who commit to whoever our new coach is

SUAVO

7:45am

New to fandom I take it?

Beggar

7:46am

Remember all the CBers who mocked the thought of any BYU recruit ever being

Buffalo

7:41am

Any idiot would know Chandler is Kentucky level

fattycoug

7:42am

Pope is just recruiting his own players.

WJCougar

7:43am

We can’t have nice things

Croweater

7:46am

Watching the “wish him well” crowd finally turn on Pope

YOHONOMOTO

7:40am

People who don't expect Pope try to win at Kentucky are unrealistic

Division Bell

UVU ended up with a better coach. Hopefully we do as well

johnnybyu

Yep. As a UVU fan it is deja vu for sure.

TunaOne

I don't UVU actually feels things.

zonacougar

All five of their fans. Except they lost Toolson as a grad transfer

BYU '80

I find it darkly amusing that "nice guy" BYU is hoping to land the 5* former recruit, who spurned BYU twice, as a coach

WJCougar

7:41am

Oh No

mjmill All-American

7:36am

Byu needs a lifer, like few, Bennett, drew. I think madsen could have been that

Idacoug

7:33am

I didn't know that. He wanted out as soon as he got in? What's the story

Don Carlton

7:34am

It’s not that he disliked byu, but he was looking to climb ladder…quickly.

Idacoug

7:36am

A coach who wins less than he loses would be less likely to choose to leave

Belboz

7:35am

We had that, his name was Dave Rose and it doesn't work out

OC Coug

7:38am

It’s a huge gamble. BYU’s coaching pool is so small.

Idacoug

7:40am

When you get a lifer, you find yourself wanting someone hungrier, with ambition

RevolutionDeathsquad

7:46am

Lifers are mostly a thing of the past

RockyBalboa

7:47am

Sucks to be excited about a recruit for years and never have him play.

ballen

7:32am

At least Adams gave us that one jump shot.

Soupie

Santiago was right

Santiago HIRED pope with toms blessing.

Idacoug

He's never right.

Zombre

Santiago should've left byu a long time ago

Nick emery was right….the erickson family was right….Utah AAU coaches were right

Top 10 recent

Chandler to Kentucky....

Could be a deal breaker.

Mark Madsen in response to BYU coaching rumors:

I think you guys are all being taken for a ride.

👀

My dad plays golf with Chandler’s grandpa

Let me be the first to welcome Kevin Young to BYU

This is why he ghosted everyone

I don’t know what to think or who to believe BUT …

If Kevin Young comes to BYU, here is what I think will happen.
