Around SBN: Despite Relocation Drama, Coyotes Overcome Adversity

BYU Fans

I will say it again. You have this great site with fantastic writers and all BYU can come up with is 7 people to visit this site. I was thinking basketball was a big thing in Utah but i guess not. BYU will NOT win in Spokane and you will get the 3 or 4 seed in the WCC. Im sure at the start of the the year BYU fans were thinking they would run away in the crappy WCC. ( welcome to the WCC ) I am sure you wont be here for long anyway. To be honest i was glad when you joined the WCC and i still think you have a shot at the big dance but you will not beat the Zags in Spokane. You really do need to find a way to get fans to your great page here. Vanquish The Foe is a great news outlet for BYU sports.

I agree the site is a work in progress, but all good things take time.

As for the bball smack, talk about the pot callin the kettle black. Funny that you talk about BYU coming in thinking they’d win the WCC, when I’m pretty sure if any school thought the title was theirs from the beggining, it was the Zags. How’s that consecutive title streak lookin now? Also, if I were a Zag fan (when they’re not playing BYU I am), I don’t think I’d be talkin too much smack. You already forget the last 2 meetings we’ve had? The BYU-GU game in Provo wasn’t exactly a nail biter and I’ll give you a pass on getting absolutely ran-out-da-gym in Denver last year.

I obviously expect GU to play better at home (Sacre might show up this time, and I’d assume Pangos will have a better night too), but I also wouldn’t look passed the fact BYU didn’t exactly shoot the lights out in Provo either. Both teams will be playing much better on the 23rd. I’m looking forward to returning to the Kennel, it’s gonna be a GREAT atmosphere for an all out war.

Zags will win

And i think we get the 2 seed and you guys the 3. So we will meet for a 3rd time in Vegas. And to be honest i was hoping a little smack talk wouls have gotten a few to post. I was wrong…….I TRIED = )

Go Zags !!!!

Missed Opportunity

We appreciate the compliments. I think the biggest impediment is the general ignorance to the “Fan Post” section. If fans realized that they could post whatever idea or story or feature they wanted, I think more would be apt to come. The great thing about the SBN format is it combines both professional level commentary from staff AND the Wild West nature of a message board. We, as a staff, need to do a better job at getting that message out.

And ZagaZags, as a current Gonzaga Law student, I appreciate your love of the Zags!

Thanks for doing your best to promote the site...

Zach is EXACTLY right! As soon as other realize they can post “FanPosts” this place will turn around. I know I can do a better job (trust me, I can bring more then a delicious smile & some fun gifs) as well. This site sat basically dormant for months on end. Most BYU fans wrote it off. Great content and a niche of commenters will slowly bring people back. I like the chances of this blog starting August of this year, to really rise from the dust and become a thriving community.

WCC walkthrough

Would you mind posting the WCC walkthrough on Slipper Still Fits? i think it would be a nice addition to the Gonzaga site. Plus you could say it is from VTF BYUs site. I think it would be a goo fanpost.

Go Zags !!!!

Great idea

I’m a Gonzaga fan but like to check your WCC walkthrough very week. Thank you.

Hahaha...so here is where Zagazags has been hiding out!

I was also shocked at the low amount of commentors vs the quality of writers and fanposts/shots I see here.

Makes me feel very lucky to be a Zag fan and having a blog that draws in so many enthusiastic fans over at TSSFs.

Must get kind of boring writing such good stuff and having no-one comment. LIke you are talking to yourself. I would HATE that.

I’ll stop in from time to time and add a comment of two. I know I have a bit of a following from my rants over on SlipperStillFits. Zach might like to get shed of me from time to time too.

I don’t bite…and I’ve had my rabies shot, I think.

Football, football, football. I also follow the WA St. cougar SB blog and it’s 94.27% football also.

While we would like more comments, we are pulling in some decent traffic. Even though there is smaller participation, we know that people are reading. So it’s all good.

Sure,

But comments add to the draw in. I bet a lot more people come in and read vs those who post a comment, right?

This is a great site. Matter of fact I might be a closet BYU fan. :o)
