Coach Pope is a Gem, a pearl of great price. He is getting more out of this team than anyone thought possible! After games, he is cheerleader and proud Dad all rapped into one. If he chooses to stay and build a legacy, he will go down with the great coaches of all time at BYU. I hope the money and fame does not lure him away from his 'calling' to lead Cougar basketball. Not so obvious, his assistants are a big part of preparation and growth and I hope that they are satisfied with their part in building the kingdom too. This team may not go far in tourney basketball because it is a completely different animal from preseason or league play, but we should enjoy the work and success of this team right now. Go Cougs forever.
