So the Steve Young, Bosco, Detmer years weren't good enough for you? Yeah, he was terrible. You probably think Holmgren was OC too.

You "Fire ARod" people are nuts.

IronPotato

8:40am

BYU can do better. ARod is blah and would have been fired elsewhere.

88Coug

8:42am

...wouldn't necessarily be fired, but BYU is by far his best option, which says

Das_Countach

9:06am

Arod is mid. He needs help in the running game greatly.

Idacoug

8:44am

Would you say we have some of the more talented RBs in the Big12?

Corn

8:48am

Arod isn't in charge of shaping the RB and OL rooms?

vegas guey

9:01am

We aren't getting Gordon, Neal, Giddens, Brooks, Harvey, etc.

Corn

9:14am

We should be able to get guys like that for at least a year. RBs want carries.

dYrtbYkerYder

Don’t know if we need to move on or not from Arod but the argument of ‘who else

kotacoug

I believe that is correct. ☝️

IronPotato

As much bad CB doesn’t want to admit it… the jury is still out on Hill

Pretorian

1:43pm

The biggest problem that I have with Arod is he has not hit yet on recruiting

BYUheaven

8:45am

You make a great point. That is troubling.

kotacoug

8:50am

The majority of QBs drafted last year had transferred during college.

wjman11

8:59am

If we want to pony up the NIL money to get the top QB transfer in the portal

BYUheaven

9:07am

If you recruit and develop a HS qb that ends up being good you’re gonna have to

wjman11

9:20am

We have never had a year like this. I know you gray-hairs think it was awesome

Corn

8:46am

Don't discount the success of the 70s, 80s, and 90s. AR is trash in comparison

88Coug

8:54am

Remind me how many seasons we had 2 losses or less? Assuming we beat Houston

Cougarite

Corn just wants everyone to clam up and reverently partake of BYU Football.

BlueFever

9:01am

I want you to enjoy the freaking journey. You whiny children!

Corn

9:23am

This might be the saddest take on BYU football I've ever heard

HRCougar

9:14am

I'm not totally a grey hair yet, but I have a very clear recollection of the 80s

gwalker

10:30am

Don't ever use the term "coogies" ever again

Loyal2Royal

11:05am

Arod is why BYU has 2 losses instead of 11-0 rn

Das_Countach

Send an email and share with the group. You could end up saving our program.

dfudge

I agree. ARod has his flaws..but that is how it goes with everyone. Fire OC afte

dYrtbYkerYder

ARod is no Norm Chow

beefytee

8:49am

Yep, I wanted him fired for replacing Shoemaker with Feterik.

2FarGone

8:50am

Norm was not as good as those that came prior to him.

88Coug

8:55am

Really? He was calling plays since 82

braddahmike

9:09am

Chow had run his course, as has Arod

vegas guey

8:56am

Just because Norm Chow is Chinese?

GoodGuyGary1

12:22pm

Identity theft is not a joke Jim!

Coug

8:53am

You took the under on BYU 4.5 wins this year.

Corn

9:01am

100% I did... and 100% I want ARod to go... there is a mountain of evidence for it to happen

Coug

9:14am

You need to consider the fact that you'll never be happy with BYU football.

Corn

9:19am

I get it's fun to say I'm always negative... I get it... I am loudly negative here

Coug

9:36am

I know you do... and sorry to get personal.

Corn

9:42am

I don't know if I deserve merit... I'm a weenie here... I get it

Coug

9:59am

Sad you want to keep all the coaches but then say we won't have another year

Blue for Life

9:39am

Hiring a left over Yewt should have triggered alarm bells to begin with

runningryan

12:17pm

I say demote him to QB coach or passing game coordinator.

BlueFever

8:58am

Fans wanted Chow fired too

Belboz

9:01am

Was probably the best thing for his career

Coug

9:18am

BYU runs essentially the same offensive system as Utah

MyTwoCents

9:26am

Problem was we didn't have the D to run that system until this year.

Blue for Life

9:42am

I bet you were saying the same thing about Tuiaki

WillsPitStop

11:27am

Nope. I was totally in the fire Tuiaki crowd. We had bad defense and weren't

IronPotato

Grimes has proven that he's still a great OC. He's put up 3 back to back to back wins against the best teams in the B12.

greatbam

11:47am

Why didn’t he work out at Baylor???

niqmadu

11:50am

No idea.

greatbam

11:59am

Well it’s kind of central to your thesis….

niqmadu

12:45pm

Go back and look at how he did. Take Baylor's 2022 game vs. the National Champ Runner Up TCU for example. They lost..

greatbam

1:03pm

KU got better after taking away playcalling duties from Grimes. He hasn't

88Coug

12:32pm

I’ve heard that he did not lose play calling duties and that he did lose them

niqmadu

12:47pm

I think it was before the ASU game. 1-4 KU needed to change something.

88Coug

12:59pm

and I listened to him before the game with us and it

niqmadu

2:07pm

He's trending up, but 3 games does not make a career.

IronPotato

12:40pm

Maybe I shouldn't have said "great" but he's at least a good / decent OC.

greatbam

1:09pm

Norm Chow was routinely criticised. Being OC is rarely popular.

Plantagenet

12:07pm

Anae 1.0 was the most balanced offense we ever had

runningryan

12:13pm

We're 9-2 and you want to fire our OC. That doesn't make any sense.

rockyrd

12:58pm

I think a-rod has been good this season
