What does Atuaia plan to do with his JD? Coach?

He's getting his degree from law school and loves working in government... does he want to be an assistant coach long term?

I think the loss of Atuaia and the desire for a diverse coaching staff are 2 completely separate topics.

Sometimes personality enters the equation too...

What does THAT mean?

Supercoug

Some people just don't mesh well...despite resumes

BluePete

Did BYU even have a spot for him? I admit I don't

Snowbirdjunkie

Am I missing something? Has he coached before?

Xamius

2/4/11 11:35am

He's been "assisting" for years.

Supercoug

2/4/11 11:36am

in what capacity? will he still be?

Xamius

2/4/11 11:50am

I think he will continue to serve

Supercoug

2/4/11 11:57am

regardless of the reasons...dumb article by Vai

Vai's making trouble where he shouldn't

Supercoug

Diversity (i.e. skin color) is overrated!

Supercoug

I just threw up a little.

iknowitall

2/4/11 11:42am

I hope you swallowed it.

Supercoug

2/4/11 11:44am

Question. Would you care

iknowitall

2/4/11 11:48am

please clarify the question.

Supercoug

2/4/11 11:49am

If all you coaches/teachers

iknowitall

2/4/11 11:55am

Your assumption is wrong.

Supercoug

2/4/11 11:56am

fair enough. Sorry.

iknowitall

2/4/11 12:02pm

you should know that Bronco

Supercoug

2/4/11 11:44am

So Bronco agrees with me

Freddie Cougar

2/4/11 11:44am

No. Bronco's much smarter than you.

Supercoug

2/4/11 11:45am

I did not suggest that

Freddie Cougar

2/4/11 11:47am

No, it shouldn't, and legally it can't

cougfanblue

Really?

Supercoug

Title VII applies to private employers as well

cougfanblue

That's doesn't mean race can't be a part of it.

Supercoug

2/4/11 1:15pm

i think this is a fair reply...

Tokolosh

Lesser resumes than Cahoon?

Freddie Cougar

2/4/11 11:45am

It's not about being judged by the color of skin

palangi

2/4/11 11:51am

Fine, but that still doesn't trump

Freddie Cougar

2/4/11 11:54am

you're right it's not the most important thing

palangi

2/4/11 11:59am

You're missing the point

Supercoug

2/4/11 11:59am

Some are more important than others

Freddie Cougar

2/4/11 12:01pm

What's the most important?

Supercoug

2/4/11 12:03pm

Coaching ability is most important

Freddie Cougar

2/4/11 12:06pm

Test your theory with this scenario

Tricky

2/6/11 8:40am

not overrated at all...trust me

palangi

2/4/11 11:46am

Of course it is

Freddie Cougar

2/4/11 11:48am

Dude, you have no idea

Supercoug

Vai is losing fans fast

JOPE

2/4/11 11:42am

agree with Vai

cgrs

2/4/11 11:45am

So we should have hired him simply because of race

Xamius

Ding! Ding! Ding!

BYU law? Refusing to hire anyone who is not LDS

brizz

2/4/11 11:45am

Hey don't be hatin on BYU law

JKLCoug

2/4/11 11:46am

BYU Law doesn't refuse to hire anyone not LDS. It

Baron

2/4/11 11:49am

To be clear it is a BYU policy not BYU law.

Baron

2/4/11 11:52am

Is this a new policy? Goldsmith was not LDS.

cracka

2/4/11 11:51am

Neither was Floyd

JKLCoug

2/4/11 11:53am

So Vai is arguing that Atuaia is the best

darkcoug

2/4/11 11:45am

Is a guy not allowed to ask questions?

Tokolosh

2/4/11 11:46am

Are people not allowed to respond to his questions

darkcoug

2/4/11 11:48am

Responses are expected...

Tokolosh

2/4/11 11:51am

Would Vai have written the article at all

BigYfan

2/4/11 11:56am

What annoys me is his claim

JKLCoug

2/4/11 11:50am

I like this reply...

Tokolosh

2/4/11 11:54am

CB is a little thin skinned on:

cgrs

2/4/11 11:51am

it is because fans know this will bite BYU

I love Vai but he's not the HC.

saltlakecoug1

2/4/11 11:53am

disingenuous by Vai IMO

I want the best coaches and recruiters, period.
