For me this isn't about Pope vs KY. It's about some really good recruits over the last few years we were Finalists for
but didn't land.
Guys that could've made some of Pope's teams much more potent & competitive for Conf championships & beyond.

POLL: So are some of you upset that there was no sign Pope ever got the $$$ support in recruiting that KY is apparently getting?

Faux facts abound here like never before.

If I'm guilty of that, I'm sorry. I thought I gave the options that acknowledge the Poll's premise could be wrong.

I simply think BYU is competitive and fair, but doubt they're engaging in any bidding wars at all.

Given how the poll's gone, quite a few people are reading things different from reality, then.

Prefer how our program runs. First, decide you want to join BYU, then we'll sit down & offer a competitive, fair, deal.

Looks like we're zeroing in on a few carefully selected guys to me — & setting the price for the bidding wars right now

Prices are rising. So BYU offers more. Bidding wars don't sound like BYU.

We have Illini, Neb, Tenn & even UK guys claiming otherwise. Yes, I had a hard time buying it at first too.

You've seen credible reports? Or teams looking to justify why they lost a player. BYU might be more creative, like offer

I'm not sure. That was honestly my first take on it, too. But I'm seeing strong evidence in that Chaz & Berke

IDK. Maybe. But e.gs. KY, Big12, BYU is awesome might put BYU in the top group. In Chaz's case, desire for familiar.

We've never been national recruiters before. Ever. If we were to become serious about it, though - given BYU's stigma

The fact we also just laid down 5+ mill annual for a HC suggest to me we're capable of making the change too.

Reports of KY's contract are beyond absurd and false.

Disagree almost 100%. BYU has a massive base with many more who admire and respect what BYU is about. Seeing no other

Then why were Chaz & Berke showing no signs of singing our praises?

Ask them.

All they left me was to read them. Reticence within context often has a ton to say.

Your verdict is one of an infinite number of possibilities.

That sounds like a refusal --or at least apprehension-- to engage the evidence to me.

Yes SQ, I'm done engaging in what I see as a circular discussion. No insult intended.

If there's a feasible alternative I'm waiting for it. That KY is just that compelling fell away for me over a week ago.
