They hated his BYU teams for how "aggressive" they were, which led to his teams being perceived as "dirty."

I think he loves being the savior and low expectations

Very smart of him. Urban Meyer talked about the need for

gopman

12/6/23 7:03am

I think he loves teaching boys how to become men. That seems to be what drives him.

He said a while back that he loves building, not so much maintaining. Based on

He gave this as his main reason for stepping down at BYU. Felt like he had

Agaricus

I think that's mostly about managing expectations. He seems to really dislike

I think there is self honesty in knowing your not that guy,

Agaricus

True. He knows what he likes about the job and he seeks to have it integrate

Is Howell looking for work right now? Or is it just a matter of time for him?

I miss him and what he brought to BYU. I know im a minority though.

You look petty and jealous.

I’m really surprised he didn’t hold out for a military academy

BlackBart

I really thought Nebraska would have been in the running

Fdnman

Rhule just finished his first season there

BYU Statsman

12/6/23 6:19am

Yes...last year when they were hiring, I thought it might be Bronco

Fdnman

12/6/23 7:31am

Would’ve been a terrible fit. Doubt he was a serious candidate

Holly Mendenhall didn’t like the pressure of living in Utah Valley.

HiLife

Army loves coach Monken. AFA is doing great. And Bronco is too good a man to ever coach at a place like Navy

Hey hey hey...can't use gender specific terms anymore. We're sailors.

Will be interesting to see who he brings in as OC. Ja Beck?

SWKTNative

12/6/23 6:11am

Nevermind. Didn't realize Jason had been elevated from QB Coach to OC at 'Cuse

SWKTNative

12/6/23 6:13am

I’m pretty sure he was let go with the coaching changes.

Cnation

12/6/23 6:20am

Ah yeah. Just got a new HC there. Just found that Article. Wiki still lists him

SWKTNative

12/6/23 6:26am

Great "get" for UNM. I'm glad to see Bronco getting back in the saddle again.

DawgHaus

12/6/23 10:40am

I see this as a good thing for BYU.

Leonardo

12/6/23 6:22am

Our new ricks college?

SWKTNative

12/6/23 6:27am

Sure. A bunch of smaller schools that attract & develop LDS coaches and players.

Leonardo

12/6/23 7:18am

Couldn't agree more...

CougsCavsCats

12/6/23 1:38pm

He joined forces with Trump?

Corn Pop

12/6/23 6:35am

Good for Bronco. I'm sure he will get a pretty cool ranch in New Mexico

SUAVO

12/6/23 6:54am

I guess I'm a New Mexico fan now. I just won't let my expectations get too high.

coolblue

12/6/23 7:26am

I called this a couple years ago, it’s the perfect place for him, they will put up with his weirdness

JOPE

12/6/23 7:35am

Dang, you know he’s going to recruit Utah and the LDS kids hard.

Malcolm Reynolds

12/6/23 8:05am

LDS kids who choose New Mexico over BYU need to have their heads examined. If

It could actually be beneficial for BYU.

HiLife

12/6/23 9:05am

We had been needing a replacement to Ricks as our farm school for players...

BYUHgrad

12/6/23 11:06am

Maybe coach Anae told them they were too small, and BYU put little effort

Polecat

12/6/23 9:21am

They wouldn't be choosing NM over BYU. They'd be choosing Bronco over Sitake.

Karl Poppin

12/7/23 2:37pm

Not concerned with him poaching many BYU kids at NM

Jericho

12/6/23 8:34am

It might impact some PWO-types, but should not impact scholarship athletes.

HiLife

12/6/23 11:19am

Yes, but I think this likely affects Utah St the most in that department.

Good for Bronco. He's an amazing guy. He loves making a difference in lives more

Cheap Seats

12/6/23 9:04am

Good for him. I think its a situation that suits him at this point.

Happy As Larry

12/6/23 9:18am

I spent 7 years in New Mexico...he wont last 5

bjc

12/6/23 9:24am

lol, you say that as if Bronco doesn’t know exactly what he is walking into

Jericho

12/6/23 9:30am

He's coached there before. Knows what's what

But Albuquerque. Sorry LaserCoug. I only got to see the homeless downtown stuff. How’s the nice part of town?

Dr MoBYU

"I just can't quit you, Albuquerque."

Tricky

Cool for him. He will do well.

Big-Q

He’ll have fun. He loves elevating a losing program

CougarVeteran

What is interesting is he said he'd never coach at a school that wasn't
