Twitter reacts to the cancellation of the BYU-Utah game in 2016

SALT LAKE CITY — When news broke that Utah men's basketball coach Larry Krystkowiak was pulling out of a contracted rivalry game at BYU, citizens of the Internet immediately responded with hot takes and instant reactions.

Some of the top dignitaries in the state weighed in, as well as several former local basketball players and others in the athletic realm. Here are a few of our favorites.

BYU athletic director Tom Holmoe weighed in on Twitter, then had his tweet deleted by an associate who monitors his account and thought it was a hacker. Holmoe re-posted the same comment a short time later.
