People forget how great Luke was as a receiver. His Frosh year in Chow's West Coast system he caught 26 passes, 3 TDs, and averaged 13 yards per catch. Then is Jr year in Crowton's spread system he caught 32 passes (4 TDs) with a 10.4 average.

I'm not a lifelong fan, but Luke is the only RB when he got the ball

It would for me, it would depend on the personnel. Supporting cast matters

I get that, I just have yet to see a BYU team that wouldn't be better with Luke

That's fair, I do think the system was Luke, and it proved out to fall short

Jenkins had some of the same flair. I wish BYU had him longer.

True, unfortunately I associate him with lacking power and fumbling

I see the top 4 as Willis, Jenkins, Staley, and Williams.

Belboz

Yep. Good list.

Who would make top 5? Add Unga? I like your list, btw

Unga, Hall, Brown, Lakei Heimuli... they start to blend together in a group.

Reno Mahe even blends in that list as he may be the best receiving threat

mosterlow

But I think he was actually a receiver when he returned from his absence.

Belboz

Yup, he was a tailor made slot receiver for Crowton's system

Unga. Great runner, great blocker, great receiver. Not made of glass.

Unga had a great skill set, but he had holes in his game too
