The following is a list of coaches I heard were banging down the door at the missionaries appartment once they learned that only an active LDS member could coach at BYU, and that there MIGHT be a chance that the position is open next year:

Lou Holtz - he sees how much good press he is getting with one 38 year old player at SC and wants to have 20 of them at BYU

John Madden - he plans to impliment a video game instruction method

Mike Ditka - he swears to give up the anger problem

Red Aurbauch - he thought he'd give football a go

Steve Spurier - I heard he already was baptized, just inactive

Mike Holmgren - Already a member, but dissatisfied with the millions he is making

Urban Meyer - missionaries wouldn't even open the door for him

Dick Vermeil - He's already really emotional and will be suseptible to a quick conversion, so thusly the top real prospect.

What inspired my list? My religion teacher told me a story of how missionaries in a foreign country had trouble cashing checks and getting their bikes fixed, so they went out and baptized a banker and a bike repair man (great story by the way). So the answer is simple, if we don't have 3,000 head coaches knocking down the door to be the next BYU head coach, we just need some missionaries to tract into the best college head football coach of all-time and convert him and make the BYU head coaching job his church calling.

All stupidness asside, I have the feeling that Crowton and the COUGARS will do just fine in MWC play going 6-1 and making a bowl game and winning it for an 8 win season.
GO COUGS!!

I refuse to reveal my source but I heard that John huntsman was going to fly to canada in his lear jet and extend the calling for Ben olson to come home from his mission early, he will then become a player coach with Norm Chow as his offensive Coordinator. he will QB the offense for 4 years as the player coach, and then will go pro(I have it on good authority that the NFL has agreed to give Philadelphia the 1st pick in the draft that year so Ben can go play for Andy Reid). Norm will then be the head coach while Ben Olson plays pro football for 4 more years where he will retire and become the full time head coach at BYU, and Norm will get to retire for good. At this time Ty Detmer and Steve young will both come back to BYU to be Ben's offensive Coordinators and QB coaches, with Andy Reid as the Defensive coordinator since by that time Andy will not want to break in a new QB into his offense and will figure that he has made enough money to retire as a defensive Coordinator for BYU.

Hey, I just got a new revelation on what's happening with the coaching stuff. The virgin Guadalupe appeared to me in a tortilla and told me that Lavell will come back!!!
So haha, you are wrong platypuss, eat it! You and your source sucks! No, I'm just playing (except about the revelation) but a mid season firing would be stupid thing in my mind.
It's too bad for poor old Crowton that you Utah valley people gotta crucify him like that and all. I mean c'mon, it's pathetic that students are making fire Crowton t-shirts and stuff. Why don't y'all just sit back and let the BYU admin staff take care of it. We all know they don't like losing any more than we do, and they are trying to take care of everyone and their best interests. So freak, let them do their jobs they'll take care of it. And personally I think even if Crowton does well and keeps his job he should hit the road. The way he's been treated in Provo isn't even funny it's sad and pathetic the way y'all hate your coaches.
