WR, but yeah if you extrapolate it out to a trio, it favors years where the ball was spread out a bit more without necessarily having any all stars. But maybe thats the point, seasons end up better overall when the ball can be spread around and multiple players can be weapons for the QB

What is the best WR trio in BYU history?

I think you're forcing the "trio" thing. 2008 was awesome, but Reed White really had nothing to do with that.

Just trying to take a deeper look at the position group as a whole.

And who are the oppnonents, etc.

That’s the idea. He’s looking at best overall group of 3. So if the top 2 are

Except, in this case, the top 2 are better than any other trio he mentioned. In fact, mainly, the top 1.

I like to pretend I remember every player at BYU.....no idea who Reed White is.

Yeah, that season could have been so much different if Reed hadn't gotten

I think you've got to include TEs in the conversation

WhiteKnight

7/19/18 2:03pm

you include TE's, the 1990 group still kills - you add 1st team AA, Chris Smith.

smokymountainrain

7/19/18 2:05pm

Actually pretty close, 1990 - 3213 total, 2008 - 3165, TDs 1990 loses 4 because

1996 you add Chad Lewis and Itula Mili. In 2006 you add Johnny Harline

WhiteKnight

7/19/18 2:10pm

Dustin Johnson also in 1996. Three excellent TEs that year!

Ham

dustin johnson was a FB

Hm. Not according to cougarstats.

Ham

7/19/18 2:33pm

yeah, that's wrong. if you remember watching those teams, you know he

smokymountainrain

7/19/18 2:37pm

give me smith over any of those guys.

smokymountainrain

7/19/18 2:25pm

Not competing, just listing great TEs. There's a lot of 'em!

WhiteKnight

7/19/18 3:24pm

Yeah... it was hard not including Harline and Pitta.

Ham

7/19/18 2:11pm

Koz, Bellini, Haysbert >>>>> the rest on that list

fulano

Going solely off yardage is difficult as well because you gotta control for QB

WhiteKnight

7/19/18 2:11pm

Would have loved to see Hoffman and Apo with Beck or Hall.

7/19/18 3:03pm

Plater, Kozlowski and Balholm and Hudson at TE
