Intervention Needed
He will certainly have a short leash. 2 bad seasons and he could be gone.
But agree he has to take the chance.

It’s hard to tell when a coach will “peak”. I have to wonder if Pope’s best

In this current age of NIL, those fans will expect immediate competition for championships. Good luck.

He hasn’t. Even if he fails he’s succeeded.

If you mean made a lot of money sure but won't be surprised if Popes look back

If he gets run out of town there he’ll still have enough money to never have to

He would have had that already. His ambitions and ego with take a healthy hit tho.

“Set for life” financially sure. But if he failed, it would haunt him for life

Don’t think like what? Are you agreeing with me? I can’t tell

For competitive people NOT trying at the highest level would haunt them for life

More money over a certain threshold is generally a curse. He is over that

It's not that Pope needed to be a BYU lifer, it's more a question of timing.
