I would take him at BYU in a heartbeat

While Pope might still turn things around, I would have more confidence in Mad Dog

Don’t think either of those teams were bubble teams

2 seeds in the NIT, next 4 out is the bubble

GlutealGuy

Don’t think that is how it works

Fair point, forgot about the couple schools that turned them down

Every one of those things is also on Pope’s resume.

The current UVU team is better than anything Pope had

calvindyer

Our defense right now would give UVU a LOT of problems.

SinkingQuffa

He's working with a heavily veteran team vs a rebuilt squad, try to keep in mind

SinkingQuffa

You should be Popes PR front man. The excuses overflow

While we're on a roll, then: The Portal has improved most of the WCC & UVU too

SinkingQuffa

Like I said you’d be a good PR man for pope. It’s a bottom line business

BYU '80

Oh dang...those are worse restrictions than the honor code. Meanwhile...

Pope is in charge of recruiting and he’s not getting guys

BYU '80

He's not getting guys??

icecougar

RossoNeri

3/20/23 6:16am

Is it? The wac is a horrible league with no fan support or money. If the hc is

You are a ray of sunshine. No coach would ever satisfy your expectations

RossoNeri

If he didn't bring in 1 year guys every year he wouldn't have to rebuild yearly.

ochobeeguy

3/20/23 8:37am

So, you're okay w getting absolutely slaughtered for a year or two, then?

SinkingQuffa

Or recruit better young players. Many programs win with some young and some

BYU '80

Easier said than done. He'd of course have to recruit beyond BYU's natural

Michael Lloyd, Tavernari were a nice Gorman/Brazilian thing happening.

calvindyer

3/22/23 12:31pm

Yeah, Lloyd is probably a non-LDS guy Pope woulda targeted.

SinkingQuffa

3/22/23 1:03pm

Yeah in Vegas there are 4 teams that matter

Good for him and the WAC. The WAC was a fun basketball league this year and
