    I bet Anae doesn't last to next season.
    I agree about Anae. His performance has been "underwhelming".

      The Virginia fans I talked to at half and after the game were under no illusion of a quick turnaround. Bronco and the whole staff will be given 2-3 years to be given a fair chance.

        Nice in-conference road win for Bronco. This team has improved over the last few weeks.

          Not bad beating Duke. 1-0 in conference.
          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."

            Former University of Virginia football player Aidan Howard has sued the University and others, alleging he was severely injured in a hazing-related incident during fall camp in August.

            In a lawsuit filed in federal court, Howard alleges that he was teased and bullied by upperclassmen wide receivers Doni Dowling and David Eldridge because of Howard’s “soft-spoken and mild-mannered nature.” Diagnosed with a learning disability, Howard alleges Dowling and Eldridge, who knew of this diagnosis, would call him “‘stupid,’ ‘dumb,’ ‘slow,’ and ‘retarded’” in front of Howard and some of the Virginia coaches.

            After a practice in August, the complaint alleges that Howard was forced to fight another first-year wide receiver, Hasise Dubois, as part of his “initiation.” The complaint alleges that Dowling and Eldridge marked off a “ring” using athletic tape and used flashing lights, loud music, and announcements to simulate a “prize fight.”

            Howard claims that, among the 105 individuals present was graduate assistant coach Famika Anae—the son of offensive coordinator Robert Anae—and that Famika Anae shouted at other players to put away their phones and not record the fight. According to the complaint, Howard suffered a broken orbital bone and underwent surgery in late September

                What? This isn't Provo where fans expect an entire new coaching to come in with one of the tougher schedules in the country and succeed immediately? That's some crazy, crazy shit, right there.

                      Just thought of a joke.

                      Bronco is living in a van down by the river? Don't know about you guys but to me it sounds like he's taking this 'motivational speaker' stuff a bit too far. (If you don't get this joke google 'Matt foley snl' and watch the videos. Hilarious. Trust me.)

                            Just wanted to bump this. I do not miss Bronco. I wonder much time Hoos will give Bronco before they want his head.

                              BYU and bronco were a good match. There was a synergy there that Bronco is struggling to recreate and may never be able to recreate elsewhere. Too bad-- I was hoping he'd do better.

                                This makes me laugh. Bronco will get a few years. Sometimes you have to tear something down completely to rebuild it.

                                Bronco's a good coach and will ultimately be successful.
