Let's say the only difference is BYU beats Utah that year. That win, at that time, might have saved Heaps.

That said, Unga wasn't going to fix that game. . .

To this day, I'm still convinced that had Harvey Unga not gotten suspended...

Speaking of Harvey, I'm convinced if Anae keeps giving him the ball in the 2008

Agreed--wasn't he averaging almost 8 yards per carry?

Same w/ Fui. Both were tearing it up for 5+ yds a carry

So if you look at the plays prior to where my analysis picks up (TD drive in 3Q)

Why go 50/50 balance when running is killing it?

I think that Heaps would have stuck around...but that'd be like having

What does that have to do with Hill? That JC guy would be long gone by now.

It would have shifted things by a couple of years

And then where would we be?

I would have rather had some continuity.

I think most people would argue that the supposed #1 QB in the nation coming

I was thrilled that BYU landed the top QB in the nation, but

A win at Utah would have also meant a loss vs Boise State in Vegas.

you do realize that Heaps did figure things out that 1st year right?

Maybe they wouldn't have had a new OC if Unga had not gotten suspended.

Unga only had one more year. Anae still might not have liked what BYU was doing.
