Alex Kirry and Scott Mitchell are joined by KSL Sports BYU Insider Mitch Harper to discuss how close Mark Pope was to taking the Arizona job. Pope was very interested in the premier job out West, but it ultimately went to Gonzaga assistant Tommy Allen.

The big concern looking down the road for BYU fans is that Pope may not be a lifer like LaVell Edwards was when he coached the football team for decades and turning down NFL head coaching offers.
