The audio on that should be against the honor code. My ears are still hurting.

It's probably just the rustling of the copious amounts of ear hair.

That too.

Some of those catches were every bit as impressive as the throws.

Brisco

8/17/17 3:05pm

Agreed: Catches were more impressive IMO

Jim was a great "motivator" -the receivers did not want to face him after a drop

That was such a sad night

Taysom Hill... from undefeated to losing to USU

Belboz

In provo for the first time since like the 70s. Smh

IceCreamButt

He was actually at the QB reunion vs Washington in 2010

CaliWG

No I meant first time losing to usu in provo since the 70s.

Who was the green and yellow team in those highlights? Packers? NDSU?

Long Beach State?

You're right. They looked green, but I guess it's brown and yellow.

*black and yellow

Wonder if Max Hall watched a lot of McMahon clips as a youth because

What sticks out to me in the video: Receivers going all out. I miss that.

Sir Hammer

8/17/17 3:45pm

Yup...those receivers gave it up to make the grab

Borg

8/17/17 8:31pm

DBs were not coached nor allowed to grab and hold all game back then either!

He threw a nice ball. Made it look effortless

scottpete

How did he win 5 WAC titles? Is that possible in football? Different sports?

CoolB

8/17/17 3:56pm

Including his redshirt year in 1979 when Wilson led the team?

It will be nice to see some aerial magic come back, something like this...

Bringing Jim back into the family has been one of best things Tom Holmoe has done for BYU

These highlights remind me of what Steve Young said in his book. Everyone was

airwolf

8/17/17 4:26pm

I don't know. There were a lot of clips where nobody was open and the receiver

DirtyWater

8/17/17 4:45pm

So are he and Joe Montana the only NFL QBs to beat out Steve Young for a job?

Gives me chills.

Jeremy

8/17/17 4:59pm

problem was Taysom went off the field with broken foot just before that, so it

pegushin

8/17/17 5:01pm

It was.

Archaea

8/17/17 5:16pm

Jim had the best arm of any BYU QB. If I need to win one game and can pick any BYU QB, I'm taking Jimmy Mac!

SpiffCoug

8/17/17 5:31pm

I love the story of him refusing to come off the field for the punt team.

Tricky

8/17/17 6:52pm

People also forget that he was the punter his freshman season.

I think we underestimate how much BYU football owes to that dude. Phenomenal.

Nobody had swagger in the pocket like McMahon. #mcswagger
