It's close if it goes the final 4. the site is miscounting the rankings giving the top score at #0. He is in 3rd but 4 and 5 also have 10% of votes.

He's in 3rd place tonight!! Wow. I didn't see this coming. Still worried there will be some big flurry tomorrow by other groups to push their guy up and to the top.

The POWER of the BYU Cougars.

It does amaze me that going toe-to-toe with all the schools we did, we have managed a closing for Dave Rose like we have. It's been a tough year or so to be a Cougar fan and we've seen a lot fall off, but we've bested some good programs that if they got organized, they could probably bury us in numbers.

It's not over yet, but seeing Rose in 2nd place in the last 24 hours of this long contest as made me proud to be a part of Cougar Nation.

I think he is going to reach his first final four.

Was 7 losses in the WCC this year his worst-ever finish in the conference?

It's the most losses in WCC play. But not the worst finish. We'll still be in 3rd like always. Rose and BYU are the 3rd best coach and program in the league by a fair margin.

I don't know if BYU can find a better coach who can close that gap. But I do believe that Rose cannot close that gap.
