The bar for expectations is actually pretty low for Kevin Young.

Bingo. Just win a single tournament game and we will love you.

It is unlikely to happen but I would smile if even one of Kentucky's decommits

Archaea

Only thing more unlikely than my post right before yours

TarCoug

I know it’s impossible but would it not be amazing if BYU fans showed up bigger

This!!

Forth Eorlingas

BYU wont hold the press conference in the arena. Probably just at BYUtv

We have one. I just used it.

TailgateU

I believe that is an I don't know emoji. But I could be wrong.

kimdaddy35

12:45pm

None of those schools are paying buyouts to the MW to join WSU or OSU.

jackcrack7

12:43pm

They really should include USU. It would make them better.

TailgateU

12:44pm

Just an opinion but USU would be a great add there.

Don Carlton

12:44pm

While I am definitely surprised and excited about Young, I am still bummed about

Blew

He'll have do some magic in the portal for next season.

BlueNtheFace

We're plunged into a rebuild one year early, no way around it, it sucks.

Mitty

12:43pm

I'm not worried about losing Chandler. Subpar defensively, plays with very

777

12:38pm

And we don’t have to put up with the coach that was hired by Kentucky anymore.

DieHarder

12:40pm

Who knows how he'll pan out, regardless, he was our highest rated recruit in forever. It hurts to lose him.

Jimo Dashen

12:40pm

So many sour grapes.

durandal

12:40pm

We can't afford to lose good players, but if someone is not with us, so be it.

Archaea

12:42pm

Mitt must be worried about losing Chandler

rivercitycoug

12:45pm

KY is excellent to stop bleeding but we still need an Asst. HC ASAP.

ordinary tri guy

12:38pm

Can he retain any of Pope's assistants?

Japan Coug

12:38pm

Hopefully it really is Burgess

JuicyJam

Matt biamonte says the assistant has already been hired

kimdaddy35

Hopefully the Suns get swept

ballen

12:42pm

It might be better for us in the long term if they win the NBA title.

Japan Coug

12:44pm

Why would they speed up the process to hire Young and then slow down for assistants?

puntersarepeople

12:44pm

KC has spoken. So let it be done.

Mitty

12:37pm

I love this suggestion by Kyle Collinsworth!

kC Cougar

12:37pm

Agree!!!!

occougar

12:37pm

Have KY parachute to the center.

Archaea

12:38pm

That will be awkward when only the 42 of us show up

Buffalo

12:38pm

That was more about Pope being a Kentucky alumn and going back and all that. I think that would be a horrible idea

mokelembembe

12:42pm

Would rather see the NIL accounts starts to fill up instead... we need to give Young a chance in this new world

I wonder if the $$$ is really just Ryan Smith and not really the institution.

Gorgias

12:37pm

Hasn't a lot of BYU's sports money for the last decade been Ryan Smith's money?

SoBlueitHurts

12:40pm

Definitly #2. It's more permanent, hopefully.

Geldir

12:37pm

That is my hope

SoBlueitHurts

12:40pm

Who is the current NBA assistant that Young is looking to bring with him?

seco03

12:35pm

That line deserves the eyeballs emoji I am pretty sure

SoBlueitHurts

Are we talking about Alex Jensen here? That would be Huge.
