Interesting because some still behind coach Pope use the opposite argument.

I think you’re conflating criticism with calling for him to be removed. I bet

Which 4-star recruits are you referencing?

Can't wait for him to rack up another 1,000,000 skymiles and get 0 commits

As long as Pope wants to be the coach next year, he's going to be the coach

Pope is probably the best coach BYU can get.

Crazy to even consider replacing Coach Pope, he's the best there is -

Those who wanted Coach Tuiaki to stay are probably the same ones calling for

IDK... Seems like the people defending Tuiaki are defending Pope. The excuses

If you believe BYU BB has regressed over Popes tenure in the WCC why would you

I agree, but entering the B12 on a serious downward trajectory with no

We bring in the highest-rated LDS recruit since Jabari Parker in two seasons

In my mind, and we may disagree, landing Chandler is a huge W, but not momentum

I disagree w ya. And it's not just about Chandler. But

No doubt the usual challenge of two years until you see a player and likely 4

Agreed. Pope definitely needs more scorers & bigs.
