He brings up the use of the term ALUF and that has created a bit of a firestorm

Nobody believes him when he brings it up. Lots of Y fans deny ever hearing the term. But it is totally a thing here.

I’ve never heard of this term (ALUF) before having been a fan of BYU football for 32 years.

Even as a member of the local media, having started the first independent credentialed digital media interactive fan outlet, I never hear this term during those 20 years.

"Wasn't never" - keep trying to convince the public you're academically elite.

Dude needs a social media timeout in the worst way. Go on a hike or something to get away from the keyboard.

It’s a fake false flag account. Probably run by the group of guys who collaborate as Boney fuller.

Oops you misunderstood, pretty sure he is taking about his rival Colorado

Oh yes pardon me. Possibly even their other rival USC.

So claiming your superior in your humility isn't arrogant?

Says he's not arrogant....then goes on to explain why he hates BYU...

That whole thread just shows he spends way too much time online.

And on CB

Shows he comes to CB...ALUF is a CB term.

My apologies to those who have heard me tell the origin of "ALUF" many times.

First usage on CB was a Ute.

I wish there was a way to validate that. I would put a few bucks down on that

tribUTE certainly thought it was him.

2005. You can look through the search history of ALUF, which I did.

dwhitebud

7/30/23 5:23pm

Yes, but was that the first time it was ever used? I tried search and mine

BYU71

OK, may I drempt it.

I think if you do a search, you will find that isn't the first time

I did and it was.

That’s what I’m saying. Tribute coined the “ALUF” part.

dwhitebud

7/30/23 5:54pm

I have a hard time believing a Ute was smart enough to abbreviate it

Everything aligns with your description.

7/30/23 6:22pm

I’ve always thought ALUF was the more endearing term to refer to the Ute fans

The double negative in his post also makes the apology ambiguous.

Huge surprise he left the church. Explains the byu hate. Yewt fans hate the church and BYU. Yewt fandom hardly factors

Exactly....he cannot blame his hatred fir the Big 12 on BYU.

WJCougar

7/30/23 6:01pm

This is absolutely hilarious because they are seeing the absolutely lack of control that they have in the conference

Unibro

Victim card. Pathetic.

Of course he makes it about “BYU fans being arrogant”

I thought he was apologizing? Instead all he did was rip on BYU.

Give him a break. He was an abused child.

Another loosely veiled "I come in peace" bit that's just more arrogance.
