You are categorically denying this statement

Reynolds confirmed Thursday, that Mendenhall invited all five coaches to reapply for their positions or another position on the staff, but did not promise any coach at the time he could remain on the staff.

http://www.sltrib.com/sltrib/cougars/50959493-88/anae-byu-coach-mendenhall.html.csp

What do you think "Reynolds confirmed" means? If all 5 coaches were invited to reapply and no promises to any coach were made to remain on staff, does that not contradict your contention that Anae was begged to stay by Bronco?

All of those measures are correlated to how many plays they ran

Ok then lets look at one stat: yards per play

Taysom in Riley out. THAT alone makes a difference
