This is the most pessimistic I’ve been in pre season. Give me a reason to hope.

Kalani told Moose Bingham this is the most talented team he has had at BYU

I better let Taysom, Jamal and Fred know

He didn't say each individual player is more talented than any player he has

Let’s go!!!

As well as the SUU linemen and a very mediocre WR group

You think this year's receiver group is weak?

Zip

Aug 23, 7:59pm

He is talking about past players.

Shihan

Aug 23, 8:02pm

Where did our right guard play last year?

claw

Aug 23, 10:15pm

Quite possible he is a depth guy

Don’t forget Kai

He really is trying to be like Kwhitt

The defense will be really really good. Huge difference between Y1 and Y2 in the

Not sure the D can sack the QB or tackle the runner

shammy

But they do everything else well

You will see.

Socrates Johnson

Aug 23, 7:48pm

Why wouldn't that same rule apply to the QB?

MaxxPower

Aug 23, 9:56pm

It might. But I have more confidence in the defensive staff

Socrates Johnson

Aug 24, 12:59am

The line is not good at all. So no the defense won’t be really really good

KYU

Aug 23, 10:43pm

You have no idea what you’re talking about. You’ve seen zero snaps.

Socrates Johnson

Aug 24, 12:58am

Thats rich. BYU's defense was 105 in the nation last year. We were dead last in Sacks in the FBS. We are running back

KYU

Aug 24, 2:01am

We are not running back the same guys. Go on saying that. But you will see.

Socrates Johnson

Aug 25, 2:00pm

John Nelson, Tyler Batty, Isaiah Bagnah and insert a backup from last years dreadful line Joshua Singh. He’s a walk on

KYU

Aug 25, 5:57pm

Those guys know the system now and many have moved positions. You assume

Socrates Johnson

You said we’re not running the same guys back but we are.

Maybe you feel a little entitled; they must win for you to support them.

All I was asking for was a reason to hope. Give me your best positives. I was

Step away from CB for a min and listen to the fair reports fair reporting…

Katewot

Aug 23, 7:56pm

I’m not on CB very often at all. Look at my posting history.

asdf1986

Aug 23, 8:01pm

But we don't track your lurking history.

Shihan

Aug 23, 8:05pm

My lurking is minimal. I’ve been listening to Criddles show and others

Hang on for one more year. Next year, Sitaki will finally have his guys.

Longseason

Aug 23, 8:04pm

But will you finally be able to spell his name correctly?!

puntersarepeople

Aug 23, 8:06pm

People who pronounce his name right have a better chance of spelling his name

No, in two years. Always two years away.

At least you are not full blown Apathetic to this year football team like me.

Win or lose, BYU football is awesome.

XORCoug

The product last year was not awesome

I'mBatman

Aug 23, 9:03pm

Sadly, I have to agree (mostly)

cajuncoug

Aug 23, 10:18pm

I’d still rather see last year’s product than no BYU football at all.

XORCoug

Aug 23, 10:46pm

I'm going to follow my pre-game rituals and hang on every play like I always have.

CLCougar

Aug 23, 8:10pm

Nope. Wallow in your misery.

I’m naturally a fairly pessimistic byu fan but for some reason I’m not nearly as

Blew

Aug 23, 8:24pm

Ok. But if they come out playing well you can’t bandwagon back on

Ojiisan

So you have nothing positive to say? I was asking for reasons to hope.

Stop taking TNT's posts seriously. That guy is a serious downer.
