Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.
He still has a South Division Co-Championship to hang his hat on.Originally Posted by sancho

I'd probably prefer UGA to VaTech, but what's the next-best opening? South Carolina is a tough place to win. Miami is dysfunctional. Missouri has a ways to go to be competitive. VaTech has a lot of resources in a winnable division in a winnable conference.
USC is a top 5 job. Crazy they're letting a coordinator cut his teeth on this job.

VA Tech is an awesome football experience. They won't can you after a 9 win season, and don't have to fight for local recruits as hard. The downside is they will pay a mill less than UGA.

Yup, he might be successful, but he might not. Someone like Chip Kelly would have given me nightmares of wrapping up the South by week 6. Helton could flounder for a couple of years.
Or he could be great.
He did well with the "us against the world" mentality this year. It will be interesting to see how he handles being the overwhelming favorite.

I would say no.
Weren't they all special teams plays?
Kirby Smart to Georgia "very likely," after the SEC Championship.

Mark Richt to Miami. I think that is a good hire.
Bronco to UVA

I was thinking Richt was a good fit for Virginia. My gut tells me Bronco is a good fit as well.

I guess Bronco didn't want to lose to Whitt one more time.

Now we will get an answer to the burning question I have wondered about for years: If you take Bronco out of the Y, is he a real person and not an automoton. It will be interesting to see what he is like when football no longer is the fifth priority. At lease i assume he is not going to tell that to boosters, players, and recruits.
Although UVA does have a pretty strict honor code, at least as to honesty.
Virginia hires BYU's Bronco Mendenhall as new football coach
So does Kalani go there now? Does Taysom Hill come to Utah? Does BYU de-emphasize football? Does Robert Anae get promoted?

I wonder if you can read into this Bronco's belief that the Y is not going to get into a P-5 conference and escape independence purgatory. It cant be fun playing all your P-5 games in Sept. on the road.
I am sure that question will come up at a press conference, if there is one.

I'm not plugged into the LDS coaching community so have no clue who might be on the short list, but seems to me Kalani would be disappointing low hanging fruit. Can't imagine he would fire up the fan base.
I'd think there's a 0% chance Taysom transfers to Utah as he appears to have high career ambitions, perhaps pursuing a world-class MBA. In that vein, UVA makes tons of sense, as does Northwestern, Duke, Michigan etc..... Wonder if Stanford would consider him given his transfer years ago.
The other thing that strikes me is that given their schedule next season, which appears to be loaded with quality teams, the change to a new HC couldn't have come at a worse time. They're poised to take a beating next year.

I was told that Anae was promised the HC job when Bronco leaves. Bronco did everything he could to get another job last year but it did not come together. If Holmoe sticks with the promise, Anae will be HC. I could see him making a play for Kalani, but I don't think Kalani leaves Gary after 1 year.
Bronco will have a visible tattoo within 2 years. take it to the bank.

Taysom Hill to Utah? Why would he do that? He's a BYU guy

It would be weird for him to play at Utah anyway. I was joking about that, just for the record. It'll be interesting to see who wants that job. Looks like Anae does.

Here's how I would rate the candidates likelihood of getting the job:
1. Anae
2. Ken N (Navy head coach)
3. Anderson (Stanford D-coordinator)
4. Sitake
LOL! The Coach Anae show will be AMAZING radio for the cougar faithful, haha!
When do the Whit to BYU rumors start?
