Yes, I think BYU was considered a P5 quality team then.

In fact BYU got better scheduling deals with big programs then then it did now. I think all but Notre Dame were H-H deals.

Crowton at least had a 12 win season. He also faced legit top 15 schedules 03-04

Program was healthier — both internally and externally — in 2015 than in 2004.

Not externally. Not even close.

Perception of the program was better in 2015 than 2004 and BYU has played weaker

Whose perception?

Goatnapper'96

4/8/20 3:17pm

Media, fans, opponents — was BYU considered a P5-level opponent in 2004?

That's fair. I just think when you look at both internal culture and external

'17, '18, '19 results = 112, 63, 67. The WORST 3 year stretch in the modern era.

LOL!

Literally hasn't been a worse stretch for BYU football in the last 4 decades.

Is the landscape of BYU 2016–2019 vastly different than that of BYU 2012-2015?

Not vastly like the difference of what it was the decade before 2012

Why did Bronco average over 9 wins and a 33 finish for over a decade if it isn't

Mr. Scoobs

4/8/20 3:20pm

The final record of '19 wasn't the surprise. It was who those wins & losses were against. That made it so

Soupie

Winning 7 games is a very low bar at BYU compared to our norm.

Excellent observation

69.5 average finish/130 FBS teams doesn't cut it. I get things may be harder but

Again, Tom told Bronco his contract would not be renewed.
