Kryle as BYU coach instead of Bronco?

Kryle is a total jackass. His post game comments are just hilarious. Yeah, way to go Kryle! You really showed Joe Glenn how to be accountable for some comments he makes at a freaking school pep rally! LOL

your scathing comments are reminding me of that old saturday night live skit with alec baldwin and seth meyers - zinger v. burns.

i just imagine you writing these types of retorts and then saying - "you just got zinged!" "Uhhhh.. the name's Dave Clinger, but my friends call me Dave "Zinger", on account of my awesome, awesome zings!"

Maybe if Utah Dan could come up with a better response besides "this belongs on CB," my response would have been more acceptable to you oh mighty Ute. But he instead chose to ignore the valid criticism of your jackass coach. Come on Yewtards, has this ever happened in the history of college football? A team kicking an onside kick up 43-0?

I also love how your coach and team act like Glenn's comments were akin to calling their mothers dirty whores or something.

IF the contract is settled, the contract is settled. Trying to renegotiate with people you will work with is dirty pool. Coaching football isn't and M&A deal.

The contract is never settled unless it's in writing. Never. Every time people think they have a completely settled deal, it comes around to negotiations again when it's time to make up the contract. I've never seen an exception to that in any context, be it M&A or other, where significant sums of money are involved.

You don't do a lot of employment work do you?

Do you?

I've been involved with some, but only as it relates to larger deals in general. The general point remains, though: until it's in writing, I don't consider the deal done, and therefore I have no problem with Kyle walking out for more money. He's self-interested, and if you (a generic you - not you personally) don't allow for that in negotiations when another offer comes up and before you have his signature, you're not being realistic. I do not deny that his actions had at least the potential for bad blood, although I don't know if any exists or not.

I do work in job recruiting.

In fact it's very unethical and in many cases, in many industries can end up resulting in said flake being black balled if he goes back on agreed to terms.

Also when it looked like Kyle had agreed to terms with BYU, Bronco had already lined up to head to UNLV to be Sanford's Defensive Coordinator.
