GRAPHIC: Comparing the first 10 years of Bronco and LaVell

Bronco fields a team of below-average athletes that consistently wins games

Nice job on the graphic design.

The metric that counts

It's just looking at the first 10 years for each of them. So '72-'82 for LaVell

Utah was not a good team back then. Easy win.

Utah didn't become competitive until they hired Ron McBride.

This comparison won't look even after 12 years. Lavell had BYU on a steep upward

I could agree if Bronco had taken over directly from Lavell. But Crowton.

Bronco inherited excellent

Most of the defensive players from 2006-2009 were his recruits
Littlerich
7/7/15 12:02pm
Somewhat true. Most of the stars in '05, '06, and '07 weren't his recruits.
Gentleman Stan
7/7/15 12:04pm
Bronco had a better starting point thanks to Lavell's legacy. But

It was three years of mismanagement, and major honor code issues.

BYU's "steep upward trajectory" ended in 1985

Twice, 1990 and 1996... there were also some tremendous wins on the national

Ugh. 1990. Nationally relevant to the point of a 65-14 shellacking in the bowl..
BarraCouga

We spent two-thirds of the season in the Top 5 and our QB won the Heisman.

What's the old saying...it's not where you start, it's where you finish?
BarraCouga

It wasn't just the last two games of 1990. The first three of 1991 were awful
BeardedSpock

Why, why, WHY did you post that?
BeardedSpock

How do you explain away 5 ranked finishes, a Heisman trophy, a Top 5 bowl

Cimsidering bm took nover a top 25 program amd lavell built one!

Gary Crowton did not leave a top 25 program.
Wingnut

Bronco didn't take over a top 25 program

Yes he did he didn't take o er a top 25 team

Bronco has finished ranked in 5 of 10 years.

Great, now Bronco needs a Natl Championship & Heisman winner in next 10 years

Critics? How about honest analysis? Lets start with your surface stats...

Let's add a little more honesty to your honest analysis.

Thanks for those details. I love both, but think Bronco gets rough treatment...

9-1 vs 3-6 says it all imo..

I'm as discontent as anyone with Bronco's rivalry record. But

Lavell's record against the Utes during his first 19 seasons: 17-2
BeardedSpock
7/7/15 9:03am
Except Lavell had a hard time beating Utah State during his first 10 years.
BeardedSpock
7/7/15 9:00am
LaVell beat Utah and USU, so your point is what now?
Heinz57
7/7/15 2:19pm
You guys can't be this myopic
CasualFan
7/8/15 7:44am
LaVell still had a winning record against Utah, Bronco hasn't
Heinz57
7/8/15 12:17pm
Not in his last 9 games...
BarraCouga
7/8/15 12:34pm
You missed...
Heinz57
7/8/15 1:19pm
That's just lazy and contains no context.
BarraCouga
7/8/15 2:33pm
Watch out for "what ifs". Bronco is 4 miracle plays away from 0-9 against Utah
ALUF 1990
7/8/15 2:48pm
And he's also a play or two away from being 7-2.
BarraCouga
7/8/15 3:50pm
The point wasn't missed.
CasualFan
7/8/15 1:04pm
Even in all of LaVell seasons
Heinz57
7/8/15 1:21pm
Again...if you want to get as close as possible comparing apples to apples...
BarraCouga
7/8/15 2:37pm
Utter garbage
CasualFan

Record against Yewts really stands out
MajorZeus
7/7/15 8:47am
Not really. The Utes were New Mexico State in those years.
BarraCouga
7/7/15 9:11am
So you are satisfied with our recent performance against Utah? Pathetic.
MajorZeus
7/7/15 9:21am
Hmmm...not sure where you got that ludicrous assertion.
BarraCouga
7/7/15 9:31am
At the end of the day it is about wins and losses. Recruiting, invites, and
MajorZeus
7/7/15 10:43am
I don't obsess about Utah.
BarraCouga
7/7/15 11:06am
You sound like Bronco...just another game. It does matter for recruiting. Utah
MajorZeus
7/7/15 12:29pm
Again...to channel Inigo Montoya..."I dunno think I said what you said I said."
BarraCouga
7/7/15 1:05pm
So we agree...every game matters.

Lavell played SEVEN top-25 teams. bronco played 19 top 25 teams
Cougarclaw
7/7/15 8:52am
7 top 25 games versus 19 top 25 games, combined with similar w/l record means La
eyes4byu
7/7/15 11:03am
In other words, only 24 of Bronco's losses were to teams not in the top 25...

Lavell's top win was against #1 Miami, no?
WhiteKnight

you have zero NC for Lavell. That's wrong

Yes, if by selective, he was comparing Bronco's entire coaching record to date..
