Pat of course sung Jimmer and BYU's praises. He said that people will poo-poo their schedule because they haven't played any of the traditional powers but when you look at it closely they have played some good teams. He trumped up the MWC as a conference and talked about how just two months ago a MWC school won the Rose Bowl and now another is #1 seed. But then quipped that both schools are leaving.Originally posted by Goatnapper'96 View PostOthers will be uplifted by the spirit and both Brother Pat and the nationwide audience will be edified.
He did say Painter was his COY. He's a popular choice along with Brey. Fisher was in the talk a bit, but no longer. I wonder why Rose doesn't get more credit? I have heard his name peripherally but nothing really significant. Yahoo has their rankings and Rose is 8th right now. I understand that Painter lost Hummel but he's still got Moore and Johnson. For Rose to get a #1 seed he should get a lot more consideration than he has thus far."Nobody listens to Turtle."-Turtlesigpic

I am ok with Rose not being in COY talk. Let it all be on Jimmer. Saying that, I found last saturday's win over the Aztecs to be more fulfilling and part of that was the team effort. I believe one of the major reasons BYU lost to UNM was the team had no energy and most of that was a result of all the late nite interviews and the explosion of Jimmermania after that game.Originally posted by Surfah View PostPat of course sung Jimmer and BYU's praises.

He's not getting the love because our success is being attributed to The Jimmer. Next year, when we ONLY get a #4 seed, Rose will get NCOY.Originally posted by Surfah View PostPat of course sung Jimmer and BYU's praises.

Nice article about BYU and respect.
http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/comme...e=keown/110301And for the purposes of this discussion, when the topic is whether BYU deserves a No. 1 seed, there is only one ground rule:

BYU is not Davidson. Jimmer is not Steph Curry.
http://aol.sportingnews.com/ncaa-bas...have-no-upsetsThe very act of asking the question — “Will Jimmer Fredette be this year’s Stephen Curry? — invalidates the question itself.
Why? Because you can see Fredette coming."Nobody listens to Turtle."-Turtlesigpic

(Although I dare you to keep a straight face when you say the Mountain West isn't a major conference but the SEC and Pac-10 are.) If you think the Cougars' schedule is weak (it's No. 12 in the country, better than Duke's), then feel free to throw that out there and hope nobody's checking. If you think their RPI isn't sufficient (it's No. 1, by the way), then go for it.

I told DrumNFeather a few months back, that if we had half a commissioner none of us would be going anywhere.Originally posted by Coach McGuirk View Post

BYU will go 13-1 against the rest of the MWC, SDSU will have gone 14-0. Even if BYU has the edge head to head, we still don't knew who the better team is.*Banned*

Isn't that basically what 90% of the posts on CB say anytime BYU loses a conference football game?Originally posted by cougjunkie View PostThis made me laugh in the comments section from an SDSU fan.

Email I got from the Bookstore about the lack of apparel, specifically the BYU authentics from Nike:
Hi Surfah,
I understand your frustration. I have them also :-) ....
Nike has multiple divisions. We are in the Nike Team Sport Division. Products offered differ from division to division. Nike does not offer to us everything they offer to everyone else. When we do request for an added style, they require a high minimum. They combine all store orders and when those orders do not meet their production minimum, the style get's dropped. This happens to us pretty much every season.
They also produce a very limited quantity so if an item is "hot", they are not re-orderable within that season. It takes them 3-4 months to ship. Booking is 10 months in advance.
I am already working on the Basketball season order for next season. Football was done last October.
I can assure you Surfah, that we order what's available to us. So, when you see styles that's available in other schools and we do not have them, it's because they were not made available to us. Oh--great example? The current basketball team jersey--they were not made available to us neither the team's sideline outfits.
Thank you for your inquiry.
