  • A terrible realization about BYU

    One of the most interesting things about the recent development is learning that Cougarboard really is a reflection of the mentality of BYU's leadership. It's a terrible realization.

    Let's all be honest with ourselves, okay? BYU going independent is not based on any rational due dilligence. It's just a demonstration of its monstrous insecurity. BYU can't bear to be in a lesser conference than Utah. BYU is acting out like a child. BYU is as immature as a five year old.

    Also, this flaky behavior only reinforces the concerns that have kept BYU out of a big conference. It can't help BYU get into the Big 12. BYU will make itself a laughingstock of the nation before this is over.

    For starters, I'm sure every school in the MWC and the WAC hates BYU.
    When a true genius appears, you can know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in a confederacy against him.

    I'm uncertain about who is acting like a five year-old. Can you clarify again?

        Exactly because BYU just started building this multi-million dollar broadcast facility this past June when they heard Utah was going to the Pac-10, they also just recently bought a 50 million dollar HD truck none of this was in the works until Utah got that Pac-10 invite. We can not stand that Utah is going to the Pac-10 so lets go out and blow hundreds of millions just to keep up with a team who has a smaller fan base, less tradition and dick head fans.

        Good call SU you have BYU pegged once again.

          I'm glad the Utes won't ever be in a conference with BYU again. BYU is someone else's problem, forever. I wonder how many other people are feeling that way today?

              I am sure you are also one of the people that does not want the rivalry to continue, tired of getting your ass kicked?

                  SU, please keep these observations in the Independent Groundswell thread for future reference. TIA.

                    Have you done your rational due diligence to back up a statement like that?

                      Holy crap, they built that stuff fast. That is impressive. And c'mon, not all Ute fans are 'dick heads', thats just mean.

                        You are a very angry person.

                        BTW, in case you haven't bothered to look around at a BYU game, BYU also has plenty of dick head fans and very little tradition.

                        You do win the larger fan base smack. Congratulations.

                        Edit: To be fair to cj, there seem to be a lot of angry people posting in this thread.

                        I'm glad football season is here. Talking about the actual game will be a welcome change.

                          If BYU has very little tradition what do you consider Utah to have?

                          Don't feel angry about the dick head commented, you were definitely included in the group.

                              I never claimed Utah to have great tradition. Nor a national fanbase. Nor 14 million fans world-wide.

                              I don't think Utah has anything more than an above average tradition at this point. BYU's is slightly better.

                              See, I can admit BYU has a better tradition. Can you, cj, ever admit that Utah is better at something or in a better position?

                              Why the name calling? YOu don't even know me, man.

                              If it makes you feel any better, I think BYU comes out of this in a better position than they were in 2 weeks ago. I think BYU lands on it's feet. I see why BYU did what they did. I feel bad about all the collateral damage, but since Utah's not part of the scorched earth, I really don't care that much.

                              Dickhead? Man. SO harsh.
