    I agree. Rocky, you need to come up with a little more evidence.

      Yeah, Rocky. You're going to need about six inches of worth of evidence. Six bleeping inches!

        If BJ I (Brian Johnson is BJ II) truly hates Majerus maybe he should channel his rage toward his parents who brow beat him into going on a mission and deprived him of a shot at the NBA.

          This one set off my B.S. meter. Everything I have ever heard is that he wrestled with the decision, but it was his decision and he's glad he went. So like Rocky, you have to come up with some evidence.

            You're talking out of your hind end about this SU. His parents did not brow beat him about a mission.

              He told me.

              Jeff likes him more than Britton does though.

                I have spoken with Britton as well, he never said he wishes he went to BYU but he does have some regrets and he thinks Majerus is an insufferable jack ass.

                Does that make SeattleUte the Majerus of CUF?

                  You and rocky both need to read Jerry Kramer's (LA: Kremer's?) autobiography to understand this kind of love-hate relationship with a coach.

                    Yes the love hate relationship is while you are playing for him, not understanding what it is he truly wants from you or for you. Ten years later if you still hate him thats because you thought he was a dickhead.

                      I wonder what Lance Allred thinks.
                      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."

                        He didn't buy into Majerus' system. The results speak for themselves.

                          Maybe Majerus didn't give him enough cookies.

                            Three things BYU fans will never stop talking about come what may: 1) UNLV 27 Utah 0; 2) the 2008 SW baptist game; 3) Cookiegate. It's like in A Canticle for Liebowitz (LA: Leibowitz?) where those monks assigned such significance to a wife's note that the husband should pick up a dozen bagles on his way home.

                              So was "cookies" code for something else?

                                It's fun to reverse Troll SU and have him step into his own potholes.

                                Time for your 3,000 mile check up. Turn your head and cough.
