Initially it was thought by many here that Young’s strength was in actual coaching and player development and that

recruiting would involve a learning curve. I think he’s exceeded expectations on that recruiting front and, therefore, I don’t see any concrete reason not to anticipate team performance significantly beyond even last year.

Nothing wrong with adjusting expectations after the first few games and nothing wrong with having expectations beforehand.

POLL: What has become your minimum expectation for BYU in March?

Our pre-season outlook needs to be more aligned to conf standings & championships now. Dance-dreaming should come later.

Making the round of 32 isn’t as lofty a dream as winning the Big 12 would be.

Ozymandias

9/5/24 6:29am

Yeah. Which is why it shouldn't be worthy of a dream.

SinkingQuffa

9/5/24 6:31am

But you said those dreams should come later but now you are saying they arent

Ozymandias

9/5/24 7:55am

Later — when we've proven in the course of the season that it's a reasonable dream to have on a given year.

So we get to move on to having less lofty dreams? You aren’t making any sense.

Ozymandias

No sense? To look to see how we stack up in conference play — BEFORE even talking about how far we might reasonably go

I don’t even understand what you are saying. It’s all over the place.

No doubt you don't. Sweet baby luscious dopper dandy!!! We're comin for ya, Dicky V!!!

SinkingQuffa

9/6/24 11:43am

That’s true- but if we win the big 12 & don’t get beyond a round or two no

SBB

9/5/24 6:32am

BS- fans care about both. If we finish in the top 3 of the B12 and get bounced

SBB

9/5/24 6:30am

We haven't earned the right to care about both, imo. We aren't established noise-makers.

SinkingQuffa

9/5/24 6:31am

Fans don’t earn anything. Fans only have expectations

SBB

9/5/24 6:33am

I thought I was talking about our Program.

I expect the team expectation in NC- I don’t think there is a “we” there’s fans

SBB

Wasn't trying to complicate anything. Just calling to question its appropriateness. Sorry to offend.

Natty or bust

I think I'll wait for Young to actually coach a game first before setting any.

As is your right. If he is a crappy coach I’d imagine that will be a shocking

I suppose 32 is my minimum. This team should be better than last year and BYU should have been in rd of 32 last march.

BYU highly likely to advance in Big Dance if they obtain a 2 or 3 seed, which they have a fighting chance to land.

“better than what we’ve ever consistently done obviously”
