I didn't realize Bronco was so interested in getting back to coaching.

Why would he not though?

I thought his wife kinda put an end to all the time required. And didn't he mention wanting time with the kids?

Division Bell

He is an empty nester

LakeshowCougs

No idea. He's the one who said it.

Division Bell

He seemed to hate everything outside the working with players.

I could be WAY off but given what he doesn’t like it seems like he’d be happier

I think he likes everything about football except recruiting and the fans

So NFL DC?

He's got all the money he needs to live his life of horses and surfing?

Corn Pop

Makes you wonder how much he disliked Virginia

reppintheY14

10/5/22 8:37pm

Or how loyal he was to Howell.

Dark Forest Green

10/5/22 8:58pm

He loved Virginia- wasn’t willing to fire his assistants

Same. It seems odd based on how he left UVA and stuff. It seems like he wouldn't

Competitive coaches just can't flip a switch off and be done. And often

I’d be interested in making $4 or $5 million per year, too

Nebraska is the perfect fit for him

RockyBalboa

10/5/22 8:42pm

How do you figure? Bronco wants a program that cares more about the young men

Corn Pop

10/5/22 8:49pm

I think he just means he looks like someone who would be from Nebraska

USMCdad

10/5/22 9:55pm

I thought the same. Though there are some great places for a horse ranch just outside of Boulder. We have people with

Colorado

No way, bronco hates the NIL stuff, that would be huge there

JOPE

10/5/22 9:21pm

Certainly makes the Virginia departure seem like there’s a lot more to the story

rivercitycoug

10/5/22 8:43pm

I think what some have suggested may be true; he didn't want to fire any staff

RenoCoug

So instead they all lost their job

Being laid off has a different stigma than being fired due to poor performance

FordGuy

10/6/22 6:14am

This type of layoff is different however. It is common practice so expected and

He mentioned in his podcast how he hadn’t had a break from football practically since elementary school. He’d been..

greatbam

And I believe that is part of the story

rivercitycoug

10/5/22 8:50pm

For someone who preaches loyalty, he sure bailed on his players and coaches.

Aka realists. You can't even dispute what he did

If you look at Bronco’s coaching career over the years he worked his way up to HC. He had small stints all over the..

greatbam

10/5/22 9:37pm

Bad take, he put himself in front of the firing squad to try to save his

10/5/22 11:11pm

He 100% quit.

byubyu

10/6/22 5:05am

It's comments like these that show how ignorant our fan base is, even about coaches that coached here for a decade.

TheLoneCougar

10/6/22 6:09am

We would compete for the same recruits if he went to ASU

2FarGone

10/5/22 9:03pm

Seems pretty likely that Bronco will be a HC again next year.

JoeExotic

10/5/22 9:04pm

I’d be surprised. Seems unlikely to be P5 and didn’t seem to like G5. He quit to

BYU'01

10/5/22 9:34pm

Maybe he had a "Tom Brady" experience and found that being home with his wife

BYUtka

10/5/22 10:16pm

He would be a good fit for ASU. They need to clean up that program

Medute

10/5/22 9:07pm

Do they have a higher purpose?

Dark Forest Green

10/5/22 9:08pm

That's their marketing pitch for donations

2FarGone

10/5/22 9:11pm

Seems more like water and oil to me.

JoeExotic

10/5/22 9:10pm

Terrible fit, that program needs more that what Bronco could do

USMCdad

10/5/22 9:57pm

I just don’t want him targeting all the same recruits as BYU.

silentvelcro

10/5/22 9:08pm

If he's stealing BYU guys to ASU with us in the Big 12 we have bigger problems.

777

10/5/22 9:11pm

We're both going to be in the same conference

2FarGone

10/5/22 9:11pm

Then BYU guys should pick BYU. If not, we don't want them.

777

10/5/22 9:16pm

He will. Which is why I was glad he was leaving coaching.

YOHONOMOTO

Colorado or ASU + Bronco don't seem like a match.

Countcougula

10/5/22 9:13pm

I think Georgia Tech (ACC experience) or Nebraska (cowboy) could be a good fit

RenoCoug

10/5/22 9:15pm

Worse case scenario for BYU fans won't happen, in my opinion. Bronco to Stanford

crack

10/5/22 9:33pm

RE : Stanford : I’d be pretty surprised to see Bronco coaching again at a highly liberal University.

greatbam

10/6/22 3:44am

I think Colorado would be a good fit for him, I hope he doesn’t go with ASU

USMCdad

10/5/22 9:59pm

I think Tom Herman is destined for ASU

RenoCoug

10/5/22 10:05pm

I think he could do great things at Stanford. Football is not #1 there. He could surf too.

RealityCheck

10/5/22 10:31pm

I really appreciate and respect Bronco and always

StanfordCougar

10/5/22 10:55pm

Can we use our newly found BIG12 money and get him on staff???

KendoVABeach

10/6/22 3:34am

Bronco already has millions I doubt money would entice him back to BYU.

greatbam

$ maybe not, but opportunity and no limelight might

ImuaKahuku

I could see him coaching Col. Would probably be a great fit as far as localation

ImuaKahuku

He'd have a hard time building his staff again. My sources say the coaches were
