My evidence isn't anecdotal.

It's personal experience. Furthermore, most involved in the local football community like and respect him.

You people just want to engage in character assasination because he coaches our rival. You will nitpick anything to buttress your confirmation bias.

I don't feel "bad" exactly for Kyle, but he's a tragic figure.

He will take comfort knowing Utes got little ROI for what they paid him.

Friend with some connections in the Ute program said they already know of about 25 players planning to leave.

Since batty understands Bootahs language….maybe some of them

I don't know how many of these guys we'd actually want. Not sure there's all that much on that roster that would

I have to think they have guys on their d-line and o-line that would help BYU

Benedict Whittingham deserves everything he is getting right now. Karmic redemption from the universe healing itself.

Good post. Rack him.

Hope it was worth burning every bridge at his alma mater

I feel like admin will turn the other cheek and try to be outwardly welcoming.

12:11pm

I feel the opposite here. I wish BYU would retire his number.

2:19pm

We could invite him to run out the Alumni flag one game haha

Only against Utah

It will certainly be interesting to watch what happens to a retired KW. Unless

Emmett Fitz-Hume

True but also Whitt:

Yup that’s what I’ve been thinking the entire time I’m reading this. He has

No. Whit can kick rocks.

AZPTCOUG

Just keeping him accountable

JupiterJones

1:26pm

His contributions as a player are great, but that's where it ends. As a coach, he's gone way beyond what a rival coach

CalGTR

As he said to Steve Young when he tackled him IN PRACTICE: "STAY DOWN!"

Unibro

*As KW said to SY, when he tackled him OUT OF BOUNDS, in practice….

Definitely top 50

Couldn't happen to a more deserving person.

There's more to the Whitt story than I think we know but his behavior has been

homegrown

Kalani bends over backwards to extend olive branches and puff up Utah

Basically he's Darth Vader

“Smug in Victory, Bitter in Defeat” should be on the statue they build of him at

I will send him a pair of nice leather pants as a retirement present.

One minor correction -

Eddie

2:02pm

If he retires, I will only be sad he can't lose any more games to BYU

Still Blue

2:21pm

He went through about 10 offensive coordinators and mismanaged the QB room most

Rocketman

2:22pm

He made his bed. Let him lie in it.

He didn't "spurn" BYU; Holmoe's boss, A.V.P. Skousen put the offer on hold to

Jasbo

That is not how it went down.

Chase

That didn't happen.

shakarocks

This is NOT what I have heard face to face with Holmoe. So...he didn't know?

AlexKnight

I believe he responded with "I know"

JupiterJones

On your last sentence: BYU will go out of its way to give him redemption.

whirl

Kyle by all counts is a great human personally. The problem is he has had 4 years of really soft pac 12 coming into B12

GoodBetterBestBYU

5:43pm

Nope. I know people who went to high school with him. They despise him.

DeepCCoug

5:57pm

You're equating high school personal with adult persona?

shakarocks

This is lame. Please don’t. I know people who know Kyle well

Aircooled

6:41pm

That’s not valid- often arrogant narcissists will appear “nice and upstanding”

Please provide actual evidence
