LaVell also had "different" HC
LaVelle's honor code and Bronco's honor code are not created equal (Thank you Crowton). The academics that Bronco faces are different too. The number of RM players are different too. THESE are the major reasons outside of LaVelle's innovative air attack offense leading to success on field that has led to a decline in draftees (as well as a decrease in the number of draft rounds). People are having a hard time getting that. Give the same recruiting parameters and the number of Rm's that BYU has to ANY OTHER COACH OR PROGRAM and maybe they eek out a a couple more than Bronco & Co. Utah's, Utah St.'s draftees are NOT RM's, a lot not LDS, etc. Could the staff improve in some areas? Sure. But do you people really think another coaching staff would significantly change the number of draft picks with the current honor code enforcement, academic standards, and number of RM's on the team?!!!! (Bronco has increased the total percentage of players who have served missions; should we tell him to work those numbers down?) Get over it people: times and circumstances are different between LaVelle and Bronco (you could already see that transition in the last years of LaVelle's tenure). It's not apples-to-apples. And you're all crazy to think another staff could pump draft picks out in their sleep with byu's new parameters. Even if a new staff's first priority was Nfl draft picks, given the new constraints, they still wouldn't be pumping out the number you guys think they could! The ONLY thing a different coaching staff could do to pump out more draft picks is make BYU the new cool place for the best LDS kids to come somehow, which even if BYU was winning wouldn't happen with bcs and college playoff scenario.
