eight games into the season and TJ Haws went down with a season ending injury two games later. Keep all other injuries and personnel the same. And that team would still probably have more talent than '96-'97 BYU.

Reid didn't recruit over some guys (IMO, it would have been much worse for PR then than it is now). And he was gambling on the timing od guys coming back from missions. We were going to have a rough year and little depth to begin with. Having an all conference player kicked out of school and an injury or two decimated us.
