You can’t see them because they’re hidden by the massive international airport. 

Hey, I’m impressed they have a website at all.

The first phone call Whit needs to make to kick off bowl prep?

His good buddy Urban at OSU.

If they’re still as close as we’re lead to believe, Urban will give him the detailed scoop on Northwestern.

According to the book “The First 90 Days” (I highly recommend it, BTW, to anyone who’s starting a new job), one of the keys for a new leader is to secure an early win. This is definitely Mark’s early win.

Now, if he can get BYU-P permanently off the schedule in every sport, I’ll personally fund his raise and advocate for a lifetime contract.

No way. Even if he’s 100%, and even if he were clearly the better QB (which I’m not sure he is), I would stay with Shelley. For no other reason than familiarity and timing with the rest of the offense. A bowl game like this is no time for rust or warming up or getting the feel of things. Gotta go with Shelley IMO.

A question on a slightly related subject: How can Redbox afford to sponsor a bowl? Aren’t they getting trashed by Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, etc? Does anyone even go outside to rent movies anymore? 

Let’s just say that we should be reading A LOT into the timing of this. Hill retires and the first thing he does is call for an investigation into the PAC12 commissioner’s office. He knows some stuff but he had to wait until he was no longer part of the U to say it, lest the U get hit with repercussions on his watch. 
It will be very interesting…[Read more]

Superior academics? They’re on academic probation from AAUP. I don’t care what kind of GPAs you have incoming, or what kind if highly paid graduates you turn out…if you’re in trouble for academic freedom issues, you’ve got no grounds on which to argue for your academic chops. 

We can’t afford it.

I admire your notion of high level mediocrity. 

We just won the PAC12 South and came within 7 points of a Rose Bowl berth against a top 10 team with our three best offensive players hurt. I admire your notion of mediocrity. 

I just…naw, man. 

Likewise, enjoy whatever hellhole bowl BYU-P goes to. The good news is, you’ll be home before Christmas. 

Yeah how is your BYU-P game going this weekend? 

I’ll just leave this here:
Huntley lost by 14 to UW at home. Shelley lost by 7 to UW at a neutral site.
The difference is not large, and right now, I would give Shelley the nod. 

We’ll win a national championship before our fans become rational. 

Agree on Moss. Disagree on Huntley. 

No, we haven’t seen this show before (the PAC12 championship show).
If you want to blame the coaches for this loss, then you need to thank them for getting us here in the first place. 

That’s the first rational take I’ve seen tonight. 
We’ll be back in this game soon (next year?). We’ll bring more experience and confidence. Things will be better. 

Freshman QB with 3 ints on his last 3 drives. He’ll learn.
