With the strike, I wouldn't even consider going up to Park City to ski right now

RexIdaCoug

10:14am

The tone of the usage of "demand" is such a classic reveal abt the underlying

oxcoug

10:08am

It’s a game day. Who’s due for a breakout game?

Cooouuugs

10:01am

Egor

CopperLix

10:02am

He’s definitely due for one.

CougfromtheSouth

10:04am

I hope with a focus on Richie and Demin, Knell can get some good looks

TADOW

10:03am

McGregor is gonna finally go off when he gets his 7-8 minutes in the second half after we’re down 30.

scootsy

10:03am

Not understanding why you use “we”. “You guys” might be better for you.

Bluforever

10:07am

Saunders again! Demin 🏀Bounces Back. HOUSTON WE HAVE A PROBLEM!

44C

10:04am

What in the freaking world???

COACHdrn

9:51am

Yup. And season passes are thousands.

byuluvr

9:52am

Epic pass is like $700. Season passes are not much.

crimedog

9:55am

Do you even want to go right now with the ski patrol strike going on? Half the runs are closed and lines are enormous

scootsy

9:52am

I just checked and basically every list that’s open is 20+ min wait. And none of

maxpowers

9:55am

No, I don't. I just read about it, which led me to look at the prices.

COACHdrn

10:08am

Is the strike the reason prices are so high right now?

Cougarclaw

10:11am

Wow, that makes days at Disney look cheap

2FarGone

9:53am

Then there are ski rentals, parking, and proper ski gear plus food. The vast majority of Utahns now never ski.

CSoul

9:54am

Sounds like they need more ski resorts in Utah

thewaterboy

9:56am

Don’t forget about the cost of surgery afterwards.

Yukon

10:03am

You can fly to Austria and ski there for cheaper than going to a US resort

Skeptical Optimist

9:54am

Yes $73 lift tickets

SwanSong

10:14am

Suddenly, Disneyland is looking pretty good for families!

Nikomedes

9:54am

But I am not a hypocrite!

DKN

9:55am

Vail Group has ruined so many resorts. They even seem too cheap to make snow.

rivercitycoug

9:54am

Their margins suck, too. They must have insanely high operating costs to have declining margins with these price

Skeptical Optimist

10:01am

I used to ski all the time, when an all day pass was five dollars.

CopperLix

9:55am

Go to Brianhead. Kids ski free and adults are like 60$

Durden

9:55am

Veteran+dependent season passes were $561, active duty and retired were $172

justAnotherCoug

10:02am

This is partly why I never signed my kids up for ski school--this isn't a hobby

runnincoug

10:04am

You can ski Sundance for $100, but they need a lot more snow right now.

You could say that again.

RE: The Little one

Whatever you do, DO NOT DO THE ROAD TO HANA.

CoogsWin

9:51am

I’ve had multiple people tell me it’s not worth it.

BluePostum

9:58am

It is worth it.

Mr. Belding

10:03am

It’s worth it if you do it on a motorcycle & drive very fast while passing cars

ArcticKat

10:07am

Or get up super early to start. You avoid a lot of traffic that way

P-Boy Squad

10:08am

I enjoy it. Next time I'm going to spend a couple of days in the area.

shakarocks

Sunrise at the Haleakala volcano was an out of this world experience. It felt

blackandblue

10:01am

I agree. We had an outfitter take us up with bikes.

shakarocks

We did a helicopter ride over Molokai. Got a video recording of our flight too.

coug719

Just saw Ron Desantis on the courtside bench, pretty cool.

Puka Nacua - has 990 yards receiving (10 from football milestone) & they sit him

farsurfer

9:44am

Cam Ward approves this message.

scootsy

9:47am

Same with Barkley. I’m shocked he’s not going for the record

macdizzle

9:47am

The team is holding him out. He didn't choose to sit.

LifeLongLakerFan

9:49am

It’s funny how we are so obsessed with round numbers.

lilpenny

9:53am

Puka spends too much time on the injury report to be prioritizing milestones

DieHarder

10:09am

Really fun game here between Kentucky & Florida. High level basketball

arcawley

9:39am

Interesting watching Jaxson Robinson’s stats from his last two years at BYU

squints

9:37am

You may be right, but…

HoustonTXCoug

9:43am

Agreed. Made complete sense at the time

SUAVO

9:47am

I may be crazy….

44C

9:54am

Unfortunately Big 12 has given up best b-ball conf to SEC this year.

Bluforever

9:45am

I don't think it's any kind of foregone conclusion that he would have maintained

oxcoug

9:50am

having watched him here, I certainly didn't think he was on trajectory to 20 ppg

cwilke1

9:56am

His offensive efficiency has always been lacking. He’s way down the list at Kentucky in efficiency

Indy Coug

9:57am

Big 12 is not the best bball conference right now. Might not even be the second best this year.

scootsy

9:58am

Yep. We should have stopped at 14.

Acorn

10:02am

15 for sure. The 16th team is an embarrassment to the conference.

Big Daddy D

10:05am

Ticket to UH game

HoustonTXCoug

9:35am

I’m not certain there are too many here familiar enough with Houston home basketball games to answer this question.

scootsy

9:48am

game is officially a sell out, so you'll have to buy from ticket reseller

cwilke1

10:02am

It makes no sense why people dislike Mark Pope on here and want him to fail

ChubbyMoose

9:34am

LDS recruits is the top reason. If he is very successful, he will be our #1 competition for LDS recruits

TADOW

9:35am

Kevin Young is showing we don’t need to get all the top LDS recruits to compete

CougfromtheSouth

9:37am

I think we still need them. If nothing else, so Utah doesn't.

CoogsWin

9:47am

As a general rule I’m all for hitting the LDS talent pool hard. But if you look

CougfromtheSouth

9:59am

Because if you want what’s best for BYU you don’t want him to overly succeed and take top LDS talent. Makes perfect sens

RdF3

9:38am

Plus he left byu without ever accomplishing an ncaa tournament win OR a conference championship. Good riddance

RdF3

9:40am

It’s not that he left that bugs people, it’s how he left. And I don’t want him

rivercitycoug

9:38am

How should he have left? Not being sarcastic, serious question

macdizzle

9:44am

Meeting one or more of your stated goals?

CoogsWin

9:50am

So your concern is about what he accomplished while here vs how he left?

macdizzle

10:00am

He should have been a professional. There were several high profile moves at the

rivercitycoug

When you leave a job there is no expectation that your former employer still

maYbe

9:39am

Why would the former employer dislike that employee? Especially when the former

SUAVO

9:44am

It's not unusual for companies to escort you out when leaving for a competitor.

maYbe

9:54am

Agreed, but the OP was asking why people dislike him

SUAVO

10:14am

If all things are equal, I think a LDS kids choose BYU over Kentucky….

JohnnyC

9:44am

I don't care how he does. Not sad if they struggle, not upset if they do well.

CSoul

9:45am

Pope is a good coach who represents the Church well. Why wouldn't we want all

Agaricus

9:54am

I agree with this. Good LDS coaches at top programs is a good thing for the

CougfromtheSouth

10:00am

And some of us don't care. We knew who Pope was when he came. Meh.

I wish Pope success, unless we play them.

Hope Pope loses every game except those against Duke or Notre Dame.

I hope Pope rues the day he left byu & he’ll be competing with byu for top lds kids so I hope he fails.

There are some spoilers/leaks so it may be obvious already

puntersarepeople

Here is the preview....feel free to watch and let us know how accurate it is

Cthack1

Preview didn’t seem too lopsided

Durden

So the mountain meadows massacre is a fair characterization of the lives of the Utah pioneers?
