sports podcasts. Not sure why we don't hear from him much anymore.

This job's made for John Beck. Anyone else would be a fail by BYUbroadcasting.

Not sure he'd want it. Pretty busy already and lives out of state.

It's like when people ask why he isn't our QB coach. Dude makes millions being

I never said he should be our QB coach.

Doesn’t he have to watch all the games his students play in for evaluation

Do we even know how good he would be in the booth. Not every good ex-player is

I think Tanner Mangum is local and good on TV.

Didn't he move to Oregon? Works for Nike.

Per his website, it says he works for Nike and lives in SLC. Not sure how

I would prefer he keep training QBs and keep funneling the best college

Beck would be great, but I think it would be a huge pay cut

It wouldn't have to be the only thing he does. Mark Durrant does lots of things in addition to color commentating for BB

What Mark Durrant does is not close to what John Beck does. John Beck is considered one of the foremost experts in the
