Doug Robinson, in his article found at http://www.deseretnews.com/article/700093901/Best-and-worst-awards-for-2010.html?pg=2, said:
The Michael Scott Dundie Award for World's Best Boss: Bronco Mendenhall, who talked all fall about unity and adversity and wore shirts that said "Band of Brothers," fired his defensive coordinator and told his offensive staff to look for jobs. This is the same staff that won 10 or more games in each of the previous four seasons. New slogan: When the going gets tough, the assistants get going.


I am a true blue BYU homer, through and through, but I found this rather funny.

Band of Brothers applies to the players, not necessarily the coaches. Those dudes are the parents. Different rules, different evreything.

Didn't the Band of Brothers basically conspire against the first Company commander and got him replace by LT Withers? One of their leaders wasn't up to snuff, wasn't really a member of the Band and was replaced. Their first company commander was a very good officer, just not a combat leader which is what they needed.

Winters was the eventual replacement.
