seasons as HC.
Bronco- 90 Wins - 39 Losses
Lavell- 86 Wins - 33 Losses - 1 Tie in his first 10 seasons.
Bronco did tally 4 more wins, but he also tallied 6 more losses than Lavell did in Lavell's first 10 seasons.
Bronco had a much better Bowl record, 6-4, Lavell 2-4.
What really pushes Lavell head and shoulders above Bronco is the simple fact that Lavell took over a BYU program that was the modern day equivalent of maybe San Jose St. Bronco took over a nationally known program that had fallen on hard time, but the BYU name still carried some cache. Lavell took over a program that was in college football Siberia. No one knew who BYU was, and no one cared.
