Uh no. Win this one for the State/University, or anything else. While it is easy to put the blame on BYU for that incident, Eaton could have opened his mind up a bit, and we wouldn't have this blemish.

Hell, we could take an old one from CSU's playbook (with modifications)
1. Show up late
2. Have the team run through their student section
3. Declare the entire team as captains for the coin toss
4. Practice this week running the triple option and take them by suprise
5. After victory, get on the megaphone and declare God's on our side. We came from God's country to play the sinners.

Now BYu is going to save face and “honor” (ugh, BS, fake fake fake) the Black 14. Can’t stand their fakeness.

Yep, insincere hogwash here.

Nah - just unrealistic hogwash. Doesn't make me not a Poke fan though. It really was Tongue in Cheek. Sorry if I offended you. Bohl is fairly respectful and classy. And none of that would happen under him. 3 yards and a cloud of dust * 3 followed by a punt - sure!

I interpreted it as he was talking about BYU’s black 14 recognition.
Personally, I see byu merely using it as an opportunity to promote itself. BYU always has its self interest first. But I see any opportunity for these former players to further let the world know their story and how they were wrongly treated as a good thing. So I’m happy for the recognition for these players even if it is in Provo.
Gotcha. I took it wrong. I agree with you. +1. I actually need to go over to a thread where djm19 posted and apologize to him. I don't have a problem with LDS. But I'll troll the hell out of BYU. There is a subtle difference, and that line is easy to cross.OrediggerPoke said:Outlaw Arthur Morgan said:GoPokes86 said:Yep, insincere hogwash here.
