List of LDS Head coaching candidates for BYU:

eddog

9/24/13 4:10pm

No none unless Andy is coming and he's Not!

WestCoastFan

9/24/13 4:11pm

He might.

Cosmo Kramer

9/24/13 4:45pm

When he's done with the NFL I think he'll come. That's a long ways away though.

byuluvr

9/24/13 9:49pm

I'd say Anae, 2J, Sitake (maybe), or Steve Clark from SUU are the only

BYUCoug11

9/24/13 4:12pm

You forgot Gary Andersen

lawboy

9/24/13 4:13pm

He's LDS?

toogoodforU

9/24/13 4:14pm

sort of. i doubt he'd be considered. plus he has a better gig.

johnnycarson

9/24/13 4:15pm

Sort of? So like really inactive?

toogoodforU

9/24/13 4:16pm

Last I heard he's not active.

eddog

9/24/13 4:16pm

I would love for Mike Leach to run our offense, but I don't think he would

byuwahoo

9/24/13 4:14pm

How does that make you think he wouldn't be a good fit for BYU?

toogoodforU

9/24/13 4:15pm

Based on the interviews he's given over the years

byuwahoo

9/24/13 4:18pm

here's some examples:

byuwahoo

9/24/13 4:23pm

So, theres nobody then?

MatthiasG

9/24/13 4:17pm

That's just a list of the high profile candidates.

eddog

9/24/13 4:22pm

So just so I'm clear -- you're arguing that BYU should fire a coach who has not

hansel

9/24/13 4:33pm

No. You're missing the point.

eddog

9/24/13 4:43pm

No, I understand the point, perhaps better than you do. You are, in fact,

hansel

9/24/13 4:51pm

It looks like you and I fundamentally disagree.

eddog

9/24/13 5:03pm

Is it that the program is trending downward, or...

mmelcor

9/24/13 8:39pm

I would have no problem w/ a best and brightest D-1AA coach w/ experience,or

MatthiasG

9/24/13 4:35pm

Well, there's the anti-Bronco mob on CB.

RE: Mike Leach?

joellama

9/24/13 4:19pm

I love Kalani. But we already have Bronco for the defense.

boscatar

9/24/13 4:23pm

My concern about Kalani Sitake is the actual performance of his defenses.

The Grave Digger

9/24/13 4:23pm

yewt fans would love to get rid of Sitake...

icecougar

9/24/13 8:29pm

That's what I thought, and why I'm so surprised that his name keeps coming up...

The Grave Digger

9/24/13 9:36pm

Don't think he would ever come here but Bevell would be the second coming of

Sandstone Cougar

9/24/13 4:28pm

I wish we could have a bunch of donors/boosters

toogoodforU

9/24/13 4:28pm

He's a better--and less attainable--option than Andy Reid. If the need arises

Sandstone Cougar

9/24/13 4:30pm

Those of you who want Bronco replaced better think about this:

rockhound

9/24/13 4:28pm

I think this is the case. I have to think it was at least brought up in the

East1999

9/24/13 4:29pm

Very true.

eddog

9/24/13 4:32pm

Keeping Bronco would not be an option.A HC would NEVER work under a new HC

MatthiasG

9/24/13 4:40pm

No he is not a very good HC... He is an excellent HC.

PolarisPrime

9/24/13 5:01pm

Kyle did win a Sugar Bowl as well. I think that's pretty significant.

eddog

9/24/13 5:04pm

Smoke and mirrors, it was all smoke and mirrors

MatthiasG

9/24/13 5:05pm

Lol

El Joffrey

9/24/13 7:51pm

Dave Campo is at Kansas

newbie

9/24/13 4:32pm

What is he doing there? Is he an assistant?

eddog

9/24/13 4:34pm

Defensive Coordinator

newbie

9/24/13 4:50pm

Ed Lamb at SUU should be on there

vegas cougar

9/24/13 4:43pm

Not LDS.... Missionaries have been teaching him for years.

ldsoccertodd

9/24/13 5:42pm

Is being LDS actually a requirement for the job?

steve25

9/24/13 4:44pm

I would love to see a non-mormon coach.

eddog

9/24/13 4:47pm

Why?

PolarisPrime

9/24/13 4:58pm

Why not?

eddog

9/24/13 5:18pm

That is not a reason

PolarisPrime

9/24/13 8:40pm

It's a reason, just not one that you like.

eddog

9/24/13 11:10pm

Im afraid I disagree with that...

PolarisPrime

9/24/13 11:25pm

I never said having an LDS HC hurts recruiting.

eddog

9/25/13 9:01am

There is no difference...

PolarisPrime

9/25/13 11:36am

It would show that we're open-minded and it would help us look more inclusive.

eddog

9/25/13 11:46am

I dont think it would show that we are inclusive..

PolarisPrime

9/25/13 11:58am

I'm anti BM, but adhere to LDS only HC

chirocoug

9/25/13 12:43pm

Are you saying that Bronco only works a 40 hour week?

PolarisPrime

9/25/13 12:51pm

You tell me

chirocoug

9/25/13 1:01pm

Actually there is a huge body of evidence

PolarisPrime

9/25/13 1:25pm

Is he working at 6AM or exercising at facilities?

chirocoug

9/25/13 5:02pm

Way to be objective

PolarisPrime

9/25/13 5:14pm

So you are saying I have no right to complain

chirocoug

9/25/13 5:58pm

No. I am saying that your concerns are groundless and

PolarisPrime

9/26/13 12:47am

The more difficult part of the schedule is ahead

chirocoug

9/26/13 1:06am

odds makers had BYU with 8 wins. VA is a bad loss

PolarisPrime

9/26/13 11:07am

Las Vegas books had BYU under 7.5 wins -120

chirocoug

9/26/13 1:14pm

They were wrong were they?

PolarisPrime

9/26/13 1:42pm

This subthread is still going? Kudos?

ebv

9/26/13 4:12pm

I want it to get all the way across my screen

PolarisPrime

9/26/13 4:25pm

I'll help with that.

The Grave Digger

9/26/13 4:52pm

Twice.

The Grave Digger

9/26/13 4:53pm

How about Mike Holmgren?

VintageCoug

9/24/13 5:46pm

or Brian Billick

VintageCoug

9/24/13 5:55pm

This list shows why we still have Bronco...

Zoob Lover

9/24/13 4:47pm

add Garrett Tujageue to the list -- he was a head coach on JC level for 5 years

haroldskilley

9/24/13 4:53pm

The one thing I will admit about Kyle Whittingham, is that...

The Grave Digger

9/24/13 4:54pm

So Basically

PolarisPrime

9/24/13 4:57pm

I don't expect anyone to win a national championship their first year.

eddog

9/24/13 5:15pm

Hahahahahaha this is the dumbest list I've ever seen

CandlandCoug

9/24/13 5:05pm

Lance Reynolds

RC Vikings

9/24/13 5:14pm

Also a possibility.

eddog

9/24/13 5:20pm

Many of these candidates would require over $2M to coach....

34power

9/24/13 5:36pm

Jimmer

chirocoug

9/24/13 5:53pm

Conclusion: no proven winners available. Hence I vote Bronco stays...

bluefish

9/24/13 5:56pm

I'm not convinced he must be LDS. The BOT needs to consider a non-member

youngster

9/24/13 5:57pm

If the next president of BYU is not LDS, there might be a chance for a non-LDS

Monomachos

9/24/13 6:39pm

Hopefully the BOT is more open-minded

youngster

9/24/13 7:22pm

This has been discussed many times on this board. Those who understand how

9/24/13 6:01pm

I would much rather lose with Bronco than win with Whittingham

curmudgeon

9/24/13 6:07pm

RE: I would much rather lose with Bronco than win with Whittingham

RealityCheckedCougr

9/24/13 6:37pm

Your list is full of people who will never be HC

thecthdox

9/24/13 6:38pm

The HC does not actually have to be LDS.

Real Men Wear Blue

9/24/13 6:44pm

So no one better than Bronco. Exactly what I thought.

guymandude

9/24/13 7:05pm

am I missing something? what about Sarkisian?

Schultz is back

9/24/13 7:08pm

Sarkisian isn't LDS.

eddog

9/24/13 7:12pm

Yeah, but I could see him

toogoodforU

9/24/13 7:17pm

Seems to not have a ton of love for BYU though

guymandude

9/25/13 6:09am

RE: am I missing something? what about Sarkisian?

canndyman

9/24/13 8:03pm

and how many of the options that were mentioned

Schultz is back

9/25/13 9:57am

Sorry Dude...

canndyman

9/25/13 12:57pm

Most of those guys wouldn't even think about coming to BYU

binghammer

9/24/13 7:36pm

I know several Yewt fans who'd disagree about Sitake...

icecougar

9/24/13 8:23pm

What? Fans upset with a good coach? No, I don't believe it

binghammer

9/24/13 8:40pm

problem: Leach also has a pretty good offensive mouth

icecougar

9/24/13 8:24pm

BYU is a sub-par job. Be happy with a guy who won 70% of his games.

Swiadomy

9/24/13 8:27pm

How is BYU sub-par?

KCFan85

9/24/13 10:07pm

Mike Leach? Are you kidding?

byurealist

9/24/13 8:31pm

That's because he's a pirate

randomplay

9/24/13 9:00pm

Why do people keep putting Ty Detmer on their lists? There are tons of good

Jagger

9/24/13 9:01pm

What about Charlie Stubbs?

ldsoccertodd

9/24/13 9:19pm

I've always wondered about him too. I thought he might have been a good

Polecat

9/25/13 12:13am

I like Reid as HC, Bevell as OC, Bronco as DC

robin

9/24/13 9:52pm

And I like

Forgot to add Sarkisian. just look at what he has done for Washington

TheDean

9/24/13 11:32pm

Forget HCs. Show me the list of non-LDS assistants

keylimesoda

9/25/13 12:53am

No, Scovil was not LDS. He was an amazing offensive coordinator.
