How does someone not get accepted to the "digital rhetoric" program at Dixie?

I had the same thought

Maybe some things are best kept in FO.

Nice double down on yoir buffoonery.

I had the same question. No idea how that can happen. At Dixie???

Stop looking down at Dixie. It is a great university on the rise.

Doesn't make my statement any less true. I get why other schools hate BYU fans

Bro. Dixie has no entrance requirements. It’s the easiest school in the state

Big Daddy D

UVU would like a word.

And exactly what the BOM warns against.

I'll admit guilt in this instance.

I graduated from ITT and I look down on Dixie

You go to Dixie to get a job, not academic respect.

I'm from St George. Dixie is 13th grade.

Whatever you say.

Oh yes, it will rise again. Mark my words.

Get real. I went to Dixie undergrad. It’s a good Community College/Regional Univ

I only look down on schools with racist names sweetie 🙂

Not having a background in rhetoric, would be my guess

DrBYU

8/23/21 11:13pm

Agreed. Often transfer decisions are made based on emotion not logic or reason

Saxa

You’d think a BYU grad would be a slam dunk

salamishiitake

8/23/21 11:48pm

a lot of rhetoric in the responses here.

8/24/21 5:38am

Huh... assumed he left for more PT and less competition. Guess not.

Mitty

8/23/21 10:57pm

He didn’t exactly leave by his choice

CougarCanuck76

8/23/21 11:02pm

Sad. If he'd taken Pope's offer he'd probably have his BYU tuition paid for

SinkingQuffa

8/23/21 11:04pm

Probably still could if he wanted to. Of course he would have the same issues at BYU all over again.....

Pretty sure Winitana filled out our burgeoning roster. You're only allowed two

SinkingQuffa

8/24/21 8:08am

I'm not sure there is a walkon limit because it probably just becomes self-limiting at some point.....

mokelembembe

8/24/21 9:41am

This seems true. Looking back, it seems both Pope & Rose have carried 2 or 3

SinkingQuffa

8/24/21 10:26am

There's a walk on limit because they still get team privileges just not schollie

runnincoug

Gonzaga had 5 walkons last season

This makes me feel bad honestly

8/23/21 11:23pm

I see comments on there that this is sad. I don’t see it as sad. I see it as him recognizing life is still good

He got a lot farther in the sport than I ever did.

For every guy that "makes it" and graduates on D1 scholarship, there are 10 more

100%. Nearly all players need to see sport as vehicle to something else.

Yeah, let the guy bow out gracefully and move on.

Good luck Kolby! Once a Coug, always a Coug!

This is beyond bizarre

What the heck is that? Digital rhetoric? Have ZERO clue.

its mastering your bs on the digital plane.

I was wondering the same thing

OrangeCougar

Same question..

Don_Juan_El_Guapo

Seems like it's basically digital marketing.

Kolby's major might not have been what the program requires. For example I could

Kolby seems like a really good guy. Sad he was forced out of bball.

Everybody eventually has to face the day they hang up the sneakers/cleats, etc.

That picture had a lot more hair on it than I expected.

Belboz

8/24/21 8:43am

Seems like more going on here. I mean, a guy could apply to a different program

I don't think they have very many grad level programs. I know they have a

Decisive players are NOT stars. Though they can have that effect in our minds.

that's a big loss for Dixie St...
