-BEAT down PAC teams like UCLA and Oregon State
- the list goes on and on
Max was great COLLEGE quarterback.
Things like the Utah rant and his addictions may have tainted people's views of him as a person, but as a player, he was a secondary slicing machine and absolutely an all-time great QB at BYU.
