Crowton had three straight losing seasons and numerous scandals

Bronco took BYU to a bowl game every season and Rose has won 20+ games every year and is on track to become the winningest coach in school history.

Perhaps the Bronco's and Rose's downturns have little to do with the coaching staff and athletes and more to do with BYU being left behind in the P5 beauty pageant.

It is crazy to me that someone could hold this opinion after seeing what

I’m ok with taking chances. What would have happened

carlstud

2/19/18 8:24am

That's the thing. BYU is not, by any definition, mediocre in hoops right now.

Westsider

Actually, perennial 3rd place finishes in the 13th best basketball conference...

2/19/18 9:58am

Um, not when team #1 and #2 are perennial top 25 teams.

Westsider

2/19/18 10:39am

And so your saying you would

SaintJeff

2/19/18 10:44am

How many coaches are like Bennett or Few?

D.T. Survivor

2/19/18 1:58pm

Just 2

icecougar

Do you really believe SM would be top 25 if they were in the big12 or...

blackshirts

2/19/18 11:49am

they would have Big 12 resources so they wouldn't be the st Mary's of the WCC

SUAVO

2/19/18 2:14pm

I would say St. Mary's is more an occasional top 25 team than a perennial one.

They've been ranked about 50% of the time since we joined the league

Westsider

2/19/18 6:30pm

do you have a spreadsheet with weekly rankings?

2/19/18 6:40pm

When you’re program is a dumpster fire like Crowton was then it’s not really

With Bronco it started with him lowering expectations and then making excuses...

icecougar

2/19/18 1:33pm

That’s a terrible comparison. Crowton went 5-7, 4-6, and 5-6...

TrappistF

2/19/18 5:40pm

I’d rather take that chance. What do we have to lose? 3rd place in the WCC? Oh well.

Mr. Belding

2/19/18 8:26am

we could be 6th

demon_llama

2/19/18 8:40am

We could be. But we could be first. Or maybe win a conference tourney once.

Mr. Belding

2/19/18 8:42am

3 or 6 in the Weak College Conference is sixes..

blackshirts

2/19/18 9:24am

As sad as it is, I agree. If we get worse, maybe we don't make it to the NIT

Yucaterco

2/19/18 8:44am

The NIT cares about people in the seats. They will give BYU a home game

Cougtruth

2/19/18 11:48am

That may be true, but we're not exactly selling out every week

Yucaterco

2/19/18 12:41pm

Almost guaranteed the same thing would happen, given the names i have seen on CB

roseyscenario

2/19/18 8:26am

I found coach Rose to be very friendly

BYU Fan

2/19/18 9:18am

Have found the same.

It seems unlikely that BYU will move on before Rose finishes up his current

JuicyJam

2/19/18 8:32am

Believe it's 2 more seasons and yes, I believe he deserves the right to finish the contract & decide when he leaves.

soupie

2/19/18 8:58am

IIRC we didn't take a chance on another guy, Bronco left to UVA on his own, no?

BYUfan92

2/19/18 8:50am

Bronco was going to leave sooner rather than later...the UVA offer was good timing for him...

Bonoman

2/19/18 9:58am

You realize Bronco left, right?

cougXor

2/19/18 10:12am

I think the bigger question was why did he leave?

BYU Fan

2/19/18 10:33am

Most of the above.

byujdmba

2/19/18 12:43pm

When he took the byu job he said something about imagining being here for 10

2/19/18 8:15pm

Even if we dropped down to 6th

SaintJeff

2/19/18 10:31am

We heard this same argument with Steve Cleveland. That he was not replaceable.

2/19/18 11:35am

Rose beat all 4 instate teams. Kalani lost to both. Keep Rose fire Kalani

Coogar2

2/19/18 11:58am

Judged against your peers. Gotta compete for a conference championship.

Richbyu

2/19/18 1:12pm

If Kalani just competed for a bowl game it would help

Coogar2

2/20/18 12:05am

After 2 seasons?? That's a little early

icecougar

2/19/18 1:37pm

Wasn’t too early to fire S Kaufusi, Ty etc

Coogar2

2/20/18 12:04am

Ty was historically bad. Even his first year when he had two future nfl players

2/20/18 1:03am

A proven 8-4 coach, a most likely bowl loss, a for sure Utah loss and guaranteed

Paul Hewson

2/19/18 3:11pm

Ever noticed the biggest Bronco worshipers are the biggest Rose critics.

Paul Hewson

2/19/18 3:13pm

The two things are not comparable at this point.

TheLoneCougar

2/19/18 4:32pm

Rose is 60, Bronco was 48. Also, I feel like our cupboard has much more options

Cougarfan777

2/19/18 5:30pm

People seem to forget Bronco said he only planned to coach about 10 yrs...

icecougar

2/19/18 6:17pm

I for one didn't ever want Bronco to be fired. Had he lost to horrible teams

cougaman

2/19/18 7:41pm

Lucky for you he wasn't fired.

Richbyu

2/19/18 9:32pm

Winning 1/4 of our games = bad, but not as bad as winning 1/25 of our games,
