Maybe we are two ships passing in the night here, but:
"what if" Brandon Davies (a single player) didn't sit in that tournament run?
That's my "biggest 'what if' in BYU history as far as a player goes." I think that's the right context.
I also really wish we would have had a Final Four run. Another bonus? It would have been much closer in time than Utah's last Final Four run. But as it sits, Utes 2 in my lifetime, BYU 0 on Final Four runs.
