Re: QB: It's down to 2, Mangum/Wilson

I still can't put my finger on [Mangum's] downturn in 2017. I've heard a lot of possibilities (broader stance, depression, couldn't pick up Detmer's offense (which really is the scariest excuse if true), etc.), but it was very unusual for a QB to regress to the level he did. Until proven otherwise,...

Re: BYU to add new FCS North Alabama to 2020 schedule

I just moved from North Alabama. UNA won three consecutive Dision II titles from 93-95. Have taken a down turn. 5-5 last year. Still, can’t look past them.

Re: OT: Bronco starting to get under people's skin at Virginia?

Though he may have gotten a couple of statistics a little off I had no issue with anything he said.

Re: Excellent off-season QB commentary

I think John was trying to be positive and get the fans excited. BYU sports nation is a blue goggled show which is why BYU fans love it. When guys come on their and interview, they are usually pretty blue goggled in order to keep the listenership happy. Even Trevor Matich when he was trying to be r...

Re: Excellent off-season QB commentary

The difference for me is that in 2005, I could tell we were so close. We were moving the ball well, and there were so many close losses, all that with a brand a new staff. With a little continuity in the off-season, I expected better performance the next year. Last year is a completely different sto...

Re: Jake Heaps = Uncle Rico 2.0

Unfortunately he hit his ceiling early. I think that happens to a lot of the highly rated, touted QBs. They have been so well coached with camps etc. that they have already peaked in high school. But hey, he got his college paid for and has/had (not sure) a cool gig as a backup QB in the NFL. You co...

Re: Re:

Taysom Hill is a once in a lifetime type player. I bought tickets when he was at BYU just to see him play. It is a shame he never stayed healthy, if he had, he may have broken all of BYU's QB records for throwing and rushing combined. We may have had some special seasons too. The two biggest "...

Re: revote 2016

I didn't vote for Trump. I wouldn't ever vote for Trump. I would write in Mitt Romney as my first choice. If I had to pick someone on the ballot I'd vote for Evan McMullen or that crackpot Libertarian guy, Johnson? Hey! I voted for that crackpot and I would do it again. He seemed like the best cand...

Re: LDS Church announces cutting all ties with the former Boy Scouts of America

The replacement program will be unveiled and rolled out, but it's likely an expanded Duty to God program. While I am sure they will improve Duty to God, it's the one program that has been even less-effective than Hometeaching and Scouts. It will be changed and made more gender neutral and will be u...
