    This board has trouble distinguishing the HC (head coach) from the HC (honor code). A similar problem plagues y'alls favorite football team.

      Is there anything more banal than a ute fan opining on the BYU honor code? I think not.

        I don't think it would (I didn't make that clear.) I just think that our constraints make it too hard for us to be competitive nationally, which is what we need to be if we are independent. Without a possible national title to play for, the next best thing is being part of a conference where we play for conference title and renew old rivalries. I think the MWC has said they won't take us back, but I'd bet they change their mind given the chance. My preference is MWC just because the away games would be easier to attend, but any conference is better than no conference right now, imo.

        • Greg Wrubell tweeted something about the AAC pushing to be considered P6. I notice it because I thought it was interesting he was tweeting about AAC. Trial balloon?
          One of the grandest benefits of the enlightenment was the realization that our moral sense must be based on the welfare of living individuals, not on their immortal souls. Honest and passionate folks can strongly disagree regarding spiritual matters, so it's imperative that we not allow such considerations to infringe on the real happiness of real people.

I hope so, and that replacing him is a simple or plain way to get things going in the right direction. I fear that history will show otherwise, and that this change made no difference. He's a pretty smart guy. I'm not buying the narrative that's being sold. While I love Sitake, I think Ty is the sacrificial lamb to give him more time to figure things out.

              I think Mangum was a huge factor in the train wreck, coupled with the lack of productivity of our seniors on offense.

              I think one of the big problems here is that yes, Ty is a sacrificial lamb for Sitake, but Ty is better suited as the SL for Tom Holmoe. I don't for a minute believe that Kalani chose Ty Detmer. It was more like, "Kalani, we will let you be the HC if Ty Detmer is your OC". Now I don't believe Sitake is blameless, but the guy who should be sweating IMO is Tom Holmoe. This was a calculated risk to bring in Ty, I understand, but I would hope that we would allow the HC to chose who his assistants are. The OC and the HC, especially at BYU need to be on the same page. I go back to the presser the staff held two years ago. Ty was up there mentioning the names of walk-ons, an NCAA violation. Right then and there, Kalani had to be pissing in his pants. Ty is smart, and I think could eventually become a good OC, but he was WAAAAAY too green for this. He was not the right hire to begin with...that lies on the shoulders of Tom Holmoe.

                My Ute BIL wanted to spend much of the past two days discussing what could be done about the honor code to help BYU be better (because he cares as a football fan!). I wasn't biting.

                  I was about to opine about the BYU honor code, but because you are so mean I will not.

                      It would be cool for basketball. And I would go to the BYU at SMU game every year.

                        yeah, besides that we don't care what a ute LDS apostate, once BYU student thinks about it anyway. And I say that in all sincerity, but not in a mean way.

                          Imagine 4 days at the inlaws, where they are all HUGE Ute fans (not huge enough to go to the game, mind you, but HUGE fans nonetheless). Never before during a 6-6 Ute season have the Ute fans been so eager to discuss BYU.

                            It was like this during the Crowton years also as I remember, maybe worse. By the way, anyone who even comes close to suggesting Crowton come back as OC deserves to have their fan credentials yanked for life. There is a reason he was fired as OC at like a half dozen places after BYU, including SUU, of all places. Maybe someday Ty could figure out how to get the ideas in his head to translate into play on the field. Crowton has had many more years to figure that out and never could.
