...team on the field and for a short time had the reputation of being the dirtiest team in America. That was another indication that he had run his course and both he and BYU were ready for a change.

Going through change is sometimes a painful process. Bronco had it easy when he took over at BYU because he already had connections with the players and had their respect. Plus he was gifted a rising program set and ready for success, his 2 deep his very first season was loaded with NFL talent and eventual all-time BYU greats. He just had to come in and not screw it up.

Kalani inherited a program kind of like Crowton did, they had a few really talented players for one season and then **Thud** they're starting over from scratch with inexperienced and marginally talented players at the skill positions because of several years of poor recruiting by the predecessor.

Bronco didn't do BYU any favors his last few years with his recruiting and didn't leave the program in as good of shape, talent-wise, as the program he inherited. Now he's moved on to a new program that, like when he took over at BYU, is loaded with talent thanks to some great recruiting done the guy he replaced. Makes him look good for a short time until he has to rely on his own recruiting (Bronco's first two recruiting classes avg ranking at UVA is *surprise!* in the low 60's).
