Re: Mark Pope Applies for UVU Head Coaching Position
Wow. Not entirely surprised. Probably thought with Rose's health issues the coaching position at the Y would open sooner.
He has legitimate NBA experience, which would certainly be missed, but you don't hear about Pope's influence on the team like you did about Rice so I am not sure how big of a loss it would be.

Good chance for him to get some HC experience before applying for a BYU job should Rose not be around forever with health issues.

I like the idea of coaches moving on and getting xp else where. I think it makes him a better coach if he ever comes back to the Y.

I like it because when Rose does decide to retire, then Pope will have had HC experience and we'll be able to see how he runs a program. It's a sign that a program is running well when your staff gets looked at for open spots out there.

So we can no longer respond to the obvious question with, "Is the Pope Catholic?"
