    • Upon further review, Pili is leaving as a grad transfer. Good luck to him.

      • I Hope the 3 star Pututau is not the person doofus and Spence were so hyped about, although I’m glad we’re getting a solid in state DL.

        • I keep reminding myself that in the long term, BYU is going to a P5 league and has a national fan base that is passionate about the on-field product.

          There is lots of reason to think that the long-term trajectory of the program is going up, and in big ways.

          May that thought comfort us in the short term, because I foresee a lot of hurt just around the corner.

            Hurt as in losses on the field or hurt as in having to start recruiting connections all over again? I just see so much doom and gloom and then optimism, the whiplash is baffling. I do worry that something major has happened over the last couple of seasons that has led to a lot of broken in state relationships with recruits. I have no reason to think this but it seems like others are intimating this has happened.

              Mostly losses, but yeah, we have a ways to go with recruiting. I foresee us really struggling to get to consistently bowling for the next few years.

                How about two straight trips to the Rose Bowl by the uofutah. Meanwhile, unmet expectations last year and BYU losing to some Sunbelt School in a "I can't even remember what it's called" bowl last year and unmet expectations and the NM Bowl this year. Seems pretty simple to me.
                Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!

                For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

                Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                  I do think most of the fanbase understands this and expects it. This bowl could be the last for a couple of years. If a good long term plan is in place, I'm completely ok with some struggles. I don't expect a lot of arrogance from the fans coming into the Big-XII. Until BYU wins a game they shouldn't and unrealistic hopes are raised I suppose.

                    After spending quite a bit of time on Twitter, and in a few of the NIL groups, I believe that you overestimate our fanbase by a wide margin. Most folks are under the delusion that we are going to walk into the B12 and kick ass....because we are BYU. And if we don't, the coaching staff needs to be nuked.

                    So no....our fanbase is irrational in regards to this. Most of them anyways.

                            This year would’ve hurt a lot more if we were still independent. It hurts less becssue we are finally going to start getting real cash in the door. Utah has had every advantage for the past decade and thankfully with the departures of USC/UCLA they basically be on the same level in terms of advantage (well, except that we have the honor code…).

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                                Wow, that's big. I heard rumors that he retires from coaching because KWhit demanded too much time of him and away from his family. Sundays always off at BYU is a plus. Still surprised by this though.
