Game Changer Playmaker

Spent some time in the NFL with the Atlanta Falcons. He's definitely a top 5 playmaker in BYU history (in my book, at least).

Tim McTyer? Omar Morgan?

Dayan is better at the LOS than Morgan, and maybe even moreso than McTyer. He's a unique combo.

I was close to awarding McTyer with the coveted "honorable mention." I think he

Andrew Rich also forced 6 fumbles. Nacua forced 1. That gives Rich a 16-15 lead

I think this a fair point. Nacua wouldn’t lower the boom like the others, but

I'm glad you have Rich#1.He was a tackling machine and forced more TO than Nacua

I always liked Brian Gray.

283 tackles and 14 INTs in basically three seasons. He was the man.

I don't think those stats are correct.

Super Chicken
