To disbelieve it. I’d absolutely strongly condemn it and investigate it. Based of church history and the current climate Tom did it right. Trumps way isn’t the best. It’s idiotic.

Oh how the mighty have fallen. This program needs new management, Tom.

Tom should have been fired when he was more concerned with what the world

Not fired. But should have stepped down.

Having a fun Halloween and running the program are not mutually exclusive

Are you kidding? Athletic program not just football.

False. BYU is more than Tom. Would have gotten in regardless of ad

Exactly, people assume a different AD couldn’t possibly have accomplished it

Didn't say that, but he's the one that did. Overall program looks good to me.

With that in mind byu is more than Tom

He’s obviously still bothered by it as the seats haven’t returned. But trying to

It’s in the past… get over it. When the truth came out, it was addressed.

Tom Holmoe gave it legs when it had none. Crisis management 101 failure.

Had no legs? That might be the most delusional cb statement ever.

The media ran hard with it, citing his speech to the students.

His Athletic Department released an apology and impugned an individual as guilty

Lots of people knew. Tom did a very poor job.

Many of us identify with BYU. That was the worst PR for BYU in my lifetime.

You must have a very short life. Athletes raping student(s?) was much worse.
