I think we are hopeful. But until we play the games, we don't actually know if we are built and ready to compete in the Big12.

Remember how a month before the season everybody wanted Pope fired?

A couple of thoughts: 1. I think the style of play we're seeing this year is

Also worth noting that Kaplan’s got BYU to finally invest in assistant coaches

Do you think this year's philosophies become part of BYU's (Pope's) identity?

If you had visited CB 6 months ago, you would've found all kinds of posts...

We'll see. 1. Kalani was undefeated entering B12 play. 2. If Pope has some

I’d wait til BB plays a few Big 12 games first. FB went undefeated in OOC and ended up being bad

And with all of the same main players and coaches.

You can feel that way, but Kalani has actually made significant changes

If Kalani didn't make the change in 2017, he never made it in some people's

Let's see how well we do vs Big12 teams first

We displayed issues in football before conference play.

It’s odd it’s taken 6 yrs to figure out BYU has to shoot the 3 to compete. But

Football is much harder.

In all fairness I think we need to see how we actually do in the Big 12.
