BM is unprofessional - cougarguard.com — unofficial BYU Cougars / LDS sports, football, basketball forum and message board

BM doesn't get it. It's not about "priorities," it's about balance. But you owe it to your family and your soul as well as your employers to give all to your profession. A hallmark of a professional is striving for excellence in his work when he doesn't even feel like working. Nothing should take precedence over the next big game.

Barbara is right. Maybe he should be working at the YMCA instead of big-time college football if his profession isn't a top priority. But then again maybe he's just scared of failure and hedging his bets. Either way, he's pretty pathetic. THere's nothing I've ever heard about this guy that I like very much.

He has taken the school as far as he can. If we have somebody willing to take it further and capable of it, he should be replaced.

Would Leach ever coach BYU, you think?

I don't believe BYU can pay him what he's worth now. They limit how much they are willing to pay, and he's in the stratosphere now.

Leach is good friends with Jack Daniels, it is rumored. He may have grown up LDS and graduated from BYU, but he is a very "eclectic" personality, defiinitely not of the fireside cloth.

Leach's firesides would be awesome.

Thus he'll never be BYU's coach.

Enter Gary Crowton. Everyone thought he was that guy in Lavell's later years when we weren't meeting the expectations some fans had. Sorry for the ex-ute moment, but I never thought Crowton was going to be that great and probably jumped off his bandwagon before you did. This team simply did not have much talent on defense. I'm as upset as anyone for the poor effort against Arizona, but the talent on defense was horrid this year. Still, under Crowton this team wins 4-5 games.

Your point is valid but I abandoned Crowton in year One.

There are worse coaches.

Sounds like a guy with 3 consecutive 10+ win seasons and 2 back-to-back undefeated MWC championships.
