Bronco’s downfall was him taking the religious element to the extreme, all

He had to do was be what he is today at Virginia, a football coach and mentor to his players. At BYU he felt like he needed to be the Stake President as well. He’s great at grasping the culture of the university and utilizing it to the benefit of the program. He just went a little too far at BYU.

Totally agreed. I liked Bronco when he was here, and still like him at Virginia and wish him well. He is a great coach.

I'll grant you that. Somehow he got under KW's skin and could never get back

Firesides were extreme? Too many fans exaggerated too many things.

Disagree. He took a program that had experienced scandals and worked to keep it

Swung the pendulum too far. If he was the Virginia coach at BYU it

No one would have cared about that if he would have beat Utah
