BYU Hiring Suns Kevin Young Changes Expansion Big 12 Basketball Forever | Mark Pope's Kentucky Woes

[@elijahhodges4405]

Hopefully Young will have the ability to bring the talent to Provo.

[@theoptimist9605]

BYU needs to spend some money and hire Drake C Toll away from his two employers…NOW!!! 💙💙💙

[@trplay1]

Let's not forget Kevin Young's roots are from Georgia. We still have memories of Kevin playing for Little ole Middle Georgia College under Scott Moe.

[@shortsallyear8602]

I don’t care if Mark Pope left how he did. He did great things for the program and I wish him well.

[@alext3102]

Looks like Atiki enter the transfer portal as well

[@sjrhernandez69]

with coach K Young as the new coach, Pope leaving is the best thing that happened to BYU in the long run!

Go byu

[@markstarcher3043]

The sec and kentucky r over rated. Give big 12 schools sec money and we would crush all the sec schools within 3 years

[@mickstevens6443]

Go Frogs…!!!!!!

[@bigreedinkc]

Cmon, there’s a long line of failed nba guys in college. Any examples of when it has worked? I get that you’re trying today create contact but have some perspective.

[@THEeyepatch11]

Damn Drake... I see you're still going shoulders deep with BYU fans. Hilarious.

[@AustinsReadsandListens]

Standard salty ass Utah fan. Makes sense with your sorry basketball team

[@jonathanMoody-nl9hv]

Typical Utes fan going shoulders deep on trying to slam any thing related to or about BYU. Most of us are excited about the growth of the big 12. Big hires help the entire conference. But I don’t expect a fan of your caliber to see understand because your literally incapable of seeing the bigger picture.

[@THEeyepatch11]

@@jonathanMoody-nl9hv that first part was very original, think of that yourself? Growth of what, unless the Big XII can get some teams from the ACC, there will be no "growth" and how typical of a BYU fan to be so delusional to think that. Good luck going 6-6 this year and how amusing that a decade ago you people were talking about playing for National Championships and today you are all, "I just hope we can make a bowl game." Hilarious.

[@brailsmt]

You gotta stop with "(one of) the fastest growing religion" BS. That is only true if you pay attention to growth rates from the mormon church itself, not independent surveys like Pew Research.

When it comes to competitive sports on the gridiron or basketball court, who cares about a player's, coach's or fan's faith tradition?

[@THEeyepatch11]

​@@fwilliamcony28Mormon's do.

[@brailsmt]

@@fwilliamcony28 I don't and I'm a BYU fan. It's a long story.

[@THEeyepatch11]

Is Drake still saying silly things like that? Since he started appearing on my feed I've noticed he puckers up to BYU fans. He knows they have a big fanbase and he wants clicks. Desperate.

[@brailsmt]

@@THEeyepatch11 Yeah, and he's spreading misinformation by doing so. Misinformation that mormons love to point to as "evidence". Evidence of what exactly? Evidence that they aren't to be taken too seriously.

[@corneliusdansbyjr6165]

Im glad Mark Pope doesn't give BYU or the Big 12 no props or respect he doesn't have to and shouldn't hell im happy for him on to bigger better things at a way better school athletic wise(Kentucky) and in a better conference overall im happy for him. You want the Big 12 to have so much notice but no.......your league is overrated since the departure of your only blue bloods smh 😂 💥

[@tc699]

You can't say that the basketball blue bloods have left. Kansas? Arizona coming in? Nobody they've lost compares with those two. Oh yeah, Houston has a long standing brand that goes back decades. There are a bunch of other teams that match up well, too.

[@OutsidetheEchochamber]

Got you here though

[@sergiomacias5145]

Texas and ou aren’t college basketball bluebloods 😂. You lost your credibility

[@corneliusdansbyjr6165]

@@sergiomacias5145 ik that but as far as the conference overall it was Texas and Oklahoma. Ik Kansas is a blue blood in basketball and Houston is damn good

[@corneliusdansbyjr6165]

@@tc699 yes I agree as far as basketball wise but overall the conference was known for Oklahoma and Texas
