Has anyone been listening to national media on this story? Nothing but praise and respect of Bronco along with kudos to Virginia for making a great hire. It's only Salt Lake media that doesn't like him. Not all of that is their own doing. Bronco wasn't exactly very trusting of them and acted accordingly. On the other hand, most of the trash they write or say is nothing more than to generate buzz by pissing off BYU fans, so Bronco's distrust is also understandable.
      Sounds like Mendenhall had the same relationship with the local media as Rick Majerus.

          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."

            Yeah, I agree it's not that different.

                • Remembering how bad our D got every time Bronco tried to delegate DC duties isn't giving me warm fuzzy right now.

Why wouldn't the church be willing to pony up to keep Broncos or for a new coach? Seems really short sighted considering the other things the church spends money on.
                      I fully agree. If you want to expand the brand, you spend money on it. They spent it on the downtown SLC, why not their best advertising campaign?

                      You have a P5 Schedule but you don't want to pay to compete well in it? Stupid Mormon logic. The handcuffs Administration places on the Athletic Department, "he must be a mission president, he must do firesides, he must be nice, he must accept cheap pay, but he's gotta recruit without recruiting hooligans who make us look bad from time to time, and he's gotta win a lot."

                      My God how it must suck to be Holmoe.

                        I really don't think the local media harasses deaf people.

                          It's all about priorities. Collegiate athletics are not that important in the big picture.

                            Yep. She was in our ward back before they moved to Texas.

                              Bullshit.

                              The LDS faith is bleeding members, losing fights with powerful lobbies and really has no victories. The LDS Church desperately needs to continue to promote BYU as a university in the academic arenas despite the disdain it receives for lack of academic independence for its professors in some areas and its hostility to gays. Winning football games and basketball games brings positive press. It is more important now than ever before to retain some degree of respectability.
