You will notice that all the defenders of Anae have not addressed my point that no one is even remotely concerned that Anae will be lured away.

Fine with me. Anae is a very servicable OC who has been able to put together a much better offense than his predecessor who, oddly enough, has never had a problem finding a job.

More than the lack of screens, is the lack of play action.
I think with Anae, it's sort of like we hired Leach's B student. He gets the main concepts, he can work hard, but he is no genius. He'll put in a solid performance, but rarely will you come away thinking you have had a brush with greatness. This may be to BYU's advantage actually. They get a consisently good (not great) OC who will stick around for a long time. If Anae were that A student, now after year 3, we would be talking about him being recruited away. It may be that happens at the end of this year. But I doubt it. I can't imagine where. I think eventually Anae will leave for a HC job, but not particularly big-time. Mid to low-tier WAC after two or three more years at BYU. |

Before Crowton took over, tell me about Doman. Are you going to tell me that Doman was a self-made QB? Although Beck is now a mormon God, this wasn't so clear even the first few games of his senior year. If I were coach at A&M and I had to choose between Crowton and Anae for my OC, I would go with Crowton. And I guess 95% of coaches would make the same decision.

Correction - He's a zoob God. Not all Mormons praise him.

Whether the coach at A&M or any other school would prefer GC or RA is completely irrelevant. They both have track records at BYU and Anae's is better.

Beck's slow adjustment to college football (many will fairly argue that a poor supporing cast was the reason) makes me guess he will also adjust poorly to the NFL. I'm interested to see if this will be the case or not.

If you are telling me that the opinion of all other football coaches in the country doesn't matter in your assessment, I think you have said enough already. |

I'm curious as to why you're so confident in your assessment of what the A&M coach would do. Do you subscribe to his insider letter?
