I'll be driving through Vegas in a few weeks, lets schedule it thenBall4 wrote:birdie702 wrote:I supported Riley toward the end of last season. Unfortunately, he has been a disappointment. We have no chance against BSU if he plays all 4 quarters...IMO. If he proves me wrong then I'll buy lunch for all CC peeps in Vegas.
I'm in for lunch. When and where?I can get a discount for you to help a bit at Red Rock

Hawk and The Bibster doing lunch in Las Vegas - now if I could just think of some symbol to mark on my calendar as a reminder.

Anae just might be the guy. Wisconsin DC says Anae is totally unpredictable because he just runs a bunch of plays with no rhyme or reason. Whooped Butt on Houston DC for 3 of 4 quarters. Destroyed Texas DC and HC careers.

I am not at all surprised you couldn't do it.Cougarbib wrote:My reply - without reading the other posts.
You are. Whiny, poor excuse for a fan, with totally unrealistic expectations, and a sense of entitlement, that I would guess cannot possibly explained by your own personal accomplishments - and this your self image is chained to some need for BYU Football to be perfect.
I suggest that you immediately bring yourself relief by finding a new team to support - one that will always come through for you. I was going to suggest Alabama, but wait - they lost badly to U on a field much nearer to them.
Please find a team that does not need support - or please figure out what support means.
There ya go - per your request - and according to your instructions.
Now - I could use another good laugh
Why don't you let us know exactly what you think Bronco should have done in 2010, 2011, and 2012.
Because I agree that a mistake was made that had Multi-year implications.
2009 - Nelson should have gotten more meaningful reps to measure him and get him ready.
2010 -
Jake Heaps should have been red-shirted in 2010. Riley should have started. When he went down - Lark should have been given the keys with Munns backing him up.
2011. Can't say. It would depend on how Lark looked and Munns. But Nelson, Munns, and Lark battle for the job. Heaps works with the Scout team or pouts and leaves.
2012. All four battle. Oops - we probably would not have Hill. Makes me kind of glad Heaps is gone and Hill is here.
Now for the laugher
Tell us - exactly what should have been done.

Re: Riley, Bronco ruined 2013 for THIS
Thanks for the classless personal attacks. Are you enjoying being wrong about the season? About Riley? I hope so, because I'm not enjoying being right. But at least I saw it coming.Cougarbib wrote:Heaps - much like you - whiny - entitled - unaccountable - and trust me - Jake Heaps and his advisors ruined him. And now he is red-shirting, hopefully learning patience, and figuring out what TEAM is all about.byutx wrote:Heaps would have been great if only Riley, Ogletree and Bronco not ruined him.jacksonman wrote:Agreed on all accounts!!
How has QB U been forced to rely on Riley and Heaps for the past three years without a true decent QB to lead this team. Sad thing is that Bronco's best teams came with Crowton's recruits and even then, he found ways to lose games that we should have won by double digits. Just think, one year we had Hall, Unga, Collie and Pitta all on the same team and still couldn't break the BCS.
I do think Bronco should be on a short leash, and if 2012 and 2013 ends up how many of us now fear, I think it will be time to look for a new HC.
