Amazing how Pope elevated...he was a "good" coach but without any signs of
greatness. He's been unable to win in the tournament, unable to get there every year, lost numerous games after having very large leads at the half, frequently was unable to adjust mid-game when the game plan wasn't working; now he's Mr. Everything. I did give him kudos for being a classy, high-octane personality; it's clear to me now that he is only high-octane.

The fact is BYU has materially upgraded from an "also ran" to a star. Other than Robinson, none of our team are likely to get NBA berths; they have been good as a team, but nobody stood out as a star. I love Kalifa but he was seldom a game changer. Hall is a good "quarterback" but lacks the ability and athleticism to be a consistent, big stage star. RS is one of my favorites but it's sort of like sending a Kamikaze pilot out on the floor. It's disappointing to see them go, but their leaving is a short-term inconvenience, not an irreplaceable loss.
