Thing, but is there really anything we can do except root for Jake to figure it out? Maybe write a letter to Holmoe or Sitake, but tearing down a kid who's playing his guts out for our Cougs on an anonymous online message board is just not helpful.

We’re not expecting a perfect team. We’re expecting a coach that learns from history and adapts

Board name check. This is big time ball. Every big time football team that has a fan base that gives a rats does this.

If we had a mediocre QB who didn’t turn the ball over, we’d all be over the moon. It’s hard to get excited when

I enjoy rooting for BYU football. I also want our team to make good decisions

Unfortunately fans have no say into thr decision making of the team.

Ok. And? Why even discuss the games? I don’t get the policing of people that

I discuss the games. Slandering our starting QB and OC is not discussing the

I think people trying to overstate the performance doesn't help. Both overly rosey and overly pessimistic is a problem

I just want a place to discuss byu sports. I'm totally fine with frustration.

What ways have you laid out that will improve the team?

Ill disagree with this. Somewhere out there, prominent people at BYU access CB

BYU coaches are always "evaluating their options," and choose to disagree with

You should become a football coach then.

Bama struggled worse than we did in their win over USF.

I agree we should discuss, not hate…

It bothers us because we need hope.

I would be happy with an just average QB and an 8 win season

bythenumbers

We are on track for that at the moment. Maybe we'll get there!

RGGeemer

Sep 8, 9:16pm

On track?

WJCougar

Sep 8, 9:18pm

2-0 and Jake's numbers are about average right now.

RGGeemer

Sep 8, 9:19pm

Last year they were on track for 6 wins and lost 5 straight.

WJCougar

Sep 8, 9:20pm

Correct. That sucked. Who's to say that will happen again this year? Let's wait

RGGeemer

Sep 8, 9:23pm

Thus why I said.....

WJCougar

Sep 8, 9:28pm

On track for now. Things can certainly get off track.

RGGeemer

Sep 8, 9:30pm

Every year starts with a fresh slate. BYU is 2-0 at the moment. That's good.

Jake is very average so far. True.

Only if you keep that frustration buried deep inside. DO NOT make you

You can be frustrated without making CB a cesspool of negativity.

Of coarse. As most frustrated fans have been doing. But the incessant whining

Because they can do better.

If we have eight 3 & outs in one game there's going to be complaining
