RE: Maybe brighter than you think. Dictionary says the "a" is long.

Kinda interesting that baste and based are basically pronounced the same. However I do think I have heard lambasted pronounced lam-bass-ted more than lam-base-ted.

This video claims they are both correct, but lam-base-ted is more of an American way to say it.

It's dumb because they offered him the job after Crowton.

I will get “lam-baes-ted” but I wish he would have taken the job.

Did he ever want the BYU job, or did he use it to get better pay at the U?

Sep 10, 7:26pm

He was going to accept the job but the U counter-offered and he accepted that

Pretty sure he used it correctly, but have heard it both ways

Captain Stubing

jokes on him, he's being lambasted for saying lambaested

here's to hoping

Sep 10, 1:49pm

At least he acknowledged that BYU-UU is a rivalry game

Sep 10, 9:19am

Only because he's been forced to. He's still an idiot

mobius

Sep 10, 9:21am

I assumed when he mentioned the "guys down south" he was referring to USC.

cougarfan84

Sep 10, 9:23am

That's a good point, USC are UU's true rivals.

Sep 10, 9:25am

that would be "guys down by the coast" or for their other rivals

No, it is not. But, why do your guys worry about it so much?

ImaFBfan

Sep 10, 11:08am

I've heard him make derogatory comments to mock BYU and its ties to his faith.

Sep 10, 11:52am

But that wasn’t what I was responding to

BYU '80

Sep 10, 2:40pm

He constantly belittles BYU by not showing enough respect to even say the name.

here's to hoping

Sep 10, 2:03pm

Not this argument again. He may not say anything overtly against BYU but he has

AlexKnight

Sep 10, 5:53pm

He is playing to his crowd (Utah fans). It is for fun not horribly derogatory to us. Why be offended?

Cougstreak

Sep 10, 12:51pm

IIRC, it all started when LaVell didn't hire his dad back as a assistant coach after his stint with the Raiders.

ManicBlue

Sep 10, 9:25am

He had no trouble getting hired back at Utah.

Jeffacka

Sep 10, 9:52am

It was probably following his first stint in the NFL with the Rams.

ManicBlue

Sep 10, 10:08am

I don’t think it is that offensive. It has become equivalent to us saying USU is

Groym

Sep 10, 9:33am

Agree. It almost seems more professional not to mention BYU's name.

RoboKayne

Sep 10, 10:11am

That is a fan thing, but coming from your head coach? Would you see any of BYUs HCs say USU is in Ogden?

Sep 10, 10:32am

Except we aren’t BYU’s coach

BYU '80

Sep 10, 10:33am

Agreed. KW was self deprecating about it too...seemed almost friendly

MaximusMeridius

Sep 10, 10:46am

Yeah. He might be able to gin up true hatred when it's useful, but he might

RoboKayne

stoils

Sep 10, 12:10pm

The key is that Twittingham thinks it’s offensive, so he does it.

Will you have an issue if Jay Hill refers to Utah as the "team up north"? Is it disrespectful to Utah?

He was being playful. Whit is a close friend of Sitake and he idolizes Lavell.
