That was 1996 (Record: 1-25). We just mourned the passing Tony Ingle who

When Reid left, the talent was awful

Majerus only dominated in the latter years of Reid's tenure when the program was

Exactly. BYU was devoid of talent by the time Ingle took over.

Wrong. Nielson was productive.

“Let down like 7 million members” or something like that

Give Burgess credit for not letting that poison him toward BYU. Glad Chris is

Also recruiting whiffs

He tried and failed to recruit those guys

Roger Reid and his sons

the Reid boys were not the problem

Your explanation just validated my answer

It was my fault. I left on the mission Oct 94 - Nov 96. Took them a while to recover in my absence.

As has been stated Reid was not a great recruiter. He did recruit the class of

The answer as stated is Reid couldn’t recruit really big names that went

And the one he got (Bradley) only played one year.

Bradley was a 1990 recruit. The guys I mentioned were later

But he would have played 94 and 95 had he not left early.

Here was your top scorer in 96

Jeff Campbell was a pretty good player, but it was basically him and freshman.

I went to every home game that year. Worst shooting team I’ve ever seen.

Why did you go?

My daughter was a cheerleader. No fun in bball for her but Cotton Bowl was great

Roger Reid was BYU's best tactical coach. That's why Ainge hired him in PHX.

The Chelsea Dagger

He definitely was personality challenged. One of the local sports talking heads

Soy Celeste

1/19/21 11:46am

Which means he was ill-suited as an HC. It showed.

Forzaitalia

1/19/21 11:49am

He refused the help the University offered. They hired someone to coach him in

Reid vs Majerus was epic. Utah had a name for BYU's offensive plays & called

Majerus had a lot more issues than just personality
