Not a reverse. AZPTcoug can confirm as a second witness.

They said on air that it was their biggest crowd.

The best part about being 6-0

BYU is 4-1 when they've started the season 6-0

Uncharted waters for BYU athletics right now...enjoy it

I have to agree with the game commentators regarding targeting

Knight-who-says-ni Walk-on

10:16am

It should simply be a 15 yard penalty. No disqualifications.

Indy Coug

10:16am

No one is doing this intentionally. And I don't know that the ejections are

Many are still lowering and launching with the crown. They gotta be smarter.

10:19am

Some are unintentional but others are clearly not.

Right?

travelcoug

10:19am

I wouldn't say "no one." If it was a less severe penalty, Utah would absolutely

BYUtka

10:19am

Hard disagree, the rule has had a profound effect on hits

Natgasboy

10:25am

DQ is a bit much, yet does seem like more than a simple personal foul infraction

Squirt

10:17am

Targeting is potentially serious. I’d vote out for 15 minutes the first

VACougMD

10:18am

I think it needs to be a little different than a common unnecessary roughness

SUAVO

10:18am

There should be two levels of targeting

DrewGundy

10:18am

There should definitely be levels of severity. Like if the offensive player

BYU Sportz Fan

10:22am

Is us worth 20 yards to a team to take out a player on the other team?

travelcoug

10:19am

Completely agree. They can always eject someone if they feel it was malicious

Crowd Factor

10:19am

I hate trying to judge intent. Makes it way too subjective

cougaman

10:23am

The point of having it be a disqualification is to prevent players from doing it

ordinary tri guy

10:19am

From the stadium view it didn’t look that bad

RockyBalboa

10:20am

The one yesterday was totally avoidable. Don’t blame the rule and excuse the one

cougaman

10:22am

How about base ejection on severity. That one was a basic

bald man

10:22am

Do something like soccer yellows. Warning but a second means your out for the

rivercitycoug

10:23am

It's dangerous for both players. It's tough to see ejections, but prob prudent.

rtNelson

10:24am

Even a second infraction shouldn't be a full game suspension, maybe a quarter or even a series..

Coug

10:25am

This like the fill in the corners argument. Scalley is the next utah fb coach. Kwhitt has already said it. Kwhitts

BYU Grounds Intervention Needed

10:12am

Schools can change their mind whenever they want.

JoeExotic

10:15am

Btw it’s my opinion that when Kwhitt leaves

JoeExotic

10:18am

It is in Scalley’s contract that he is next HC, even his salary is captured.

NorCal_Coug

10:19am

Are you telling me that the school couldn’t buyout that contract?

JoeExotic

10:22am

Maybe it's a noncommitable offer.

RobAdams

10:22am

Scalley is Utah’s next HC. If you want to lose sleep thinking otherwise go ahead

NorCal_Coug

10:18am

Even if Utah finishes this season 6-6 & then Whitt retires?

RdF3

10:18am

Yes

NorCal_Coug

10:19am

If they did that, they'd lose a ton of continuity.

tacallaway

10:19am

It’s no coincidence it was leaked to the press a bit ago, Scalley is next up

NorCal_Coug

10:21am

Is $1.5M/year & the opportunity to be a head coach and stay in Utah enough to sway Jay Hill sway?

He’s already making that

Utah tied for 9th after 2 games, BYU for 1st after 3, just like we drew it up

CycloneCoug

10:11am

It's crazy that picks 1, 3, and 4 are at the bottom of the league.

Blueto

2/3 of these are programs with good recent history and tenured coaches

I’m curious about this too. Was an intramural football supervisor.

IGlowInTheDark

No, they do enforce at testing center and intermurals too possibly I was just

BaseCoug

10:18am

It’s been that way for toe decades: testing center and intramurals only.

Boring

10:19am

And the testing center is less used now than in the past due to online proctored

BaseCoug

Oh, so it’s the same as it’s always been then.

Where Are All The Kalani Haters Now?

CHUNKman

9:56am

Look, he deserved all the criticism he got. He also deserves a ton of credit

He didn’t deserve for people to forget 2020 and 2021, but this season is proving those seasons weren’t a mirage.

shimmy

Polecat

10:03am

You can't blame a guy for hiring one person and not credit him for hiring

SUAVO

10:03am

But you can blame him for holding on to his Buddy and tanking the D for 5 years too long

byuTX

10:05am

Exactly, so if you blame him for that you have to credit him for all the good

SUAVO

10:13am

Correct. Which we do. Good DC hire for sure

byuTX

10:18am

OL coach has been just as important of a hire. Has turned some Olineman around

SUAVO

Too bad he hired a disaster OL coach before the current OL coach

byuTX

Of course then you’d have to explain your definition of tank because the

Tank the program from where it was. Even sitake knows he messed up. Or do you disagree with his decision to fire Tuiaki?
