Elvis Playmaker
Let me get this straight & please explain why this hire is wonderful?
So we hire Detmer, the only Heisman trophy winner in school history possessing a remarkable offensive mind, but with no experience calling plays on a D-1 level. His offense his 2nd year, decimated by injuries and a dearth of talent, is horrid. So, we fire him.

Now, we hire Grimes, a guy who played OL at UTEP. He has NEVER called plays for a D-1 school. He has recently been the run game coordinator at LSU where he had the luxury of having NFL running backs playing for him. "A great hire" some say. Even those enthused have this to say, quoting Jason Beck in this morning's Deseret News: "“BYU’s bringing him in knowing this will be his first time. When you do that, you have to be willing to spend a little time on the learning curve."

Great. A "learning curve." How much time are you willing to give him BYU? A year or two like you did Ty Detmer?

I'll give him two, like Detmer was given. Then, if he fails to deliver, sayonara to KS and TH.
