My favorite part of Riley’s calls was how early he would see stuff as a play was developing and would react. He was
really good at color commentary

finally learning when to quit in his old age, nice to see

His refusal to quit is why he’s one of my favorite BYU players ever. Yes ever.

That’s it. Teach the kids to be soft little quitters.

That's not his problem. If there was any problem at all, it was on the coaches.

both the coaches and Riley deserve blame for this

It is clear based on this thread that you haven't learned to quit despite sounding like a complete ignoramus

Maybe he has a good job opportunity that makes him move away from Utah

There's travel 6 of those weekends plus all the prep-time. That sounds pretty

With BYUtv out of the picture for Football does Blaine F shift to radio?

He and Wrubell wouldn't co-exist well in my opinion.

Wrubell would go bonkers in that situation.

BYUtv will still do pregame and postgame shows. Right?
