This is the quote that irked most people:
When we came here I was excited for another adventure. Most people think this is Bronco’s dream job, but he didn’t go to BYU as a student. I would be OK with going somewhere else — in fact, I’d love the challenge of something new."The mind is not a boomerang. If you throw it too far it will not come back." ~ Tom McGuaneComment

I think a nuclear bomb would go off in the forums of the top SEC teams if a HC or HC's wife said that comment. Would be 100x worse than what happened at CB.Originally posted by Non Sequitur View PostComment

Even though the BYU job would be a dream job only for a small cadre of LDS coaches, that's not a great thing for any coach's wife to say.Originally posted by Hsaru View Post“There is a great deal of difference in believing something still, and believing it again.”

I disagree. The idea that coaches' family members are somehow beholden to the same rah-rah mentality about the school/program/job being first, second and last is insane.Originally posted by LA Ute View Post
We compensate coaches nicely for their efforts and personal sacrifices they make, but I didn't realize that taking away their family members' desire to look ahead and perhaps do something different -- and expressing that sentiment -- was part of the deal as well.Comment

Ok, that's poor PR. I don't buy Bronco's über Mormon shctick one bit, either.
She made herself fair game for fair criticism. I won't kill brain cells by going there but I'm sure even the worst criticism was not offensive given how tightlypatrolled that joke of a place is.Comment

The thing is that it fuels the perception everyone already had of Bronco.Originally posted by Top Ute View PostComment

I said it is not a great thing for a coach's wife to say. She's certainly free to want to say it and to say it. Leave that poor straw man alone! He hasn't done anything!Originally posted by Top Ute View Post“There is a great deal of difference in believing something still, and believing it again.”

Her comments shouldn't elicit more than a ripple of notice. CB went overboard in a major way.Comment
