Fahu Tahi hates BYU

Post by hawkwing »

I guess he's trying to pile on the hate BYU bus, claiming BYU has mistreated him and his family. I'm guessing his recent arrests aren't helping either.

That's too bad. I enjoyed getting to know him when he was a missionary while I was in law school at Florida. We used to play football with him on P-Days. I am sorry to hear that his life has taken a different trajectory then the one he was on then. Hopefully, he changes course again.

Well, he currently works for Utah State--and anything to weaken an in-state team they compete with for recruits...

According to mugshots.com, while a player at BYU he was arrested for DUI/outstanding vehicle warrant in 2003 and then again for DUI in 2011. He was also arrested for Failure to Appear in November 2013 and again for Failure to Appear in November 2014.

How he stays on the Utah State coaching staff with all these arrests is interesting. It wouldn't be shocking to learn that the BYU program has kept their distance. You want to see the guy get help and he may very well be a good coach, but a church college football program may not be the best environment since he is around so many young athletes.

So he has learned how recruiting works at schools not named BYU.

If his arrest record has anything to do with Byu giving him the cold shoulder(according to him) than i'd say he has every right to be mad.
Did Byu give Max Hall the could shoulder? Nope, he was on the sideline later in the season(Unlv i think). Reno Mahe had his warts too. For Byu to "shun their prodical sons" seems counter to what they are all about.
I personally don't buy this rumor at all.

I think it has more to do with him working as a coach and recruiter for Utah State than anything. Don't you think some distance from someone whose job it is to help their team beat you year after year is natural?

Turns out he's ungruntled by the fact that BYU won't give him his diploma, which has some effect on coaching? Can't be a graduate assistant if not a graduate?
Here's a hint Fahu--if they didn't cut corners to get Jimmy Mac a degree (although they bent over backwards footing the bill to fly proctors to JM so he could take the tests at home), they probably aren't going to cut corners for you.

Maybe he should work on his writing skills.
