Loved Bronco, but he's in a really tough spot.

He isn't a great recruiter, and I would argue all the coaches in his division are better than him (maybe with exception of Johnson). I give him 2 more years.

Bronco had a major wake-up call last season. I think he is gone

I think he has at least 3 years; UVA cannot really hit the JUCOs for

I wonder how much they can successfully leverage their school for grad transfers?

they really should have beaten Louisville, that would have been huge for him

I hope Bronco loses every game.

Bronco may have literally saved BYU football

Pres Hinckley saved BYU football, Bronco was just the coach hired to be more of

Or wounded it by getting rid of Ricks football

better to get rid of sports and make it a 4-year school

Nat Gas Man

And he's to be commended for what he did 13+ years ago. But that

Well put. Bronco's tenure was a tale of two halves.

I don't think the last 3-4 years were so incredibly bad that it undoes the first 6-7 so much

Indy Coug

Since 2010 is not 3-4 years

I used the numbers RaggaeCoug had in his post. Regardless, my point stands.

Indy Coug

5/25/17 2:17pm

Yeah. Replied to the wrong post, but my point also stands. 6 years of mediocre

you mean a team that won more than they lost and went to a bowl every year?

ManicBlue

He did a great job but did hit a glass ceiling at BYU

BYU's final 4-5 seasons pretty much hang on what happened with the QB position

Indy Coug

5/25/17 2:35pm

Honestly, BYU's only great seasons came on the backs of QBs

As well as the missionary age change and OL injuries

So, how do you judge LaVell's last several years?

Bronco who?

He did good things here, but it was refreshing last year to not be blown out by

Bronco was actually very good at beating the teams we were supposed to beat. We

ManicBlue

I agree, with the caveat that he also had a yearly head scratcher.

Harrison0Yfan

5/25/17 2:07pm

Many teams have that ... most of whittingham's team do that too e.g. UNLV 27-0

ManicBlue

5/25/17 2:11pm

I suppose that's true. It was just my biggest beef with Bronco

Harrison0Yfan

5/25/17 2:14pm

Frustrating for sure. I felt all of our utah losses were due to one thing

ManicBlue

Pukes have been more talented at the most important positions during that time

QB?

I won't be cheering for or cheering against them this year...I just dont care.

I don't really think about Bronco very much. But I wish his assistants success. They are a major source of our possible

Guaranteed 15mil over five years. I think he is a lock for three years. I bet UVA won't want to pay him for 3 years
