don't make assumptions on Junkie's anatomy.

We will never have a stellar secondary based on the culture at BYU and the honor code. If you get what I mean. KW can land the supposed 2nd tier LDS player as well as the 2nd tier black player with speed, quickness, attitude, athleticism. Ain't going to happen. Something we have to live with.

BYU has to win defensively with good linebackers, and a scheme that hides the secondary, that is how it has always been. The problem is this year we dont have good linebackers.
Agree 100% re: Jorgensen. Where did he play last year when he was dominating? It wasn't over the guard.

I suggest we give Pendleton a shot at safety. He's got an attitude. Closing speed, hitter......something that Fowler doesn't have at this point.

in scoring defense.
Don't remind him either that Bronco said our defense would be as good as last year.

Loyalty is nice. Winning is better.

You need to watch a few hours of Gary Crowton games. It could be a lot worse.

Talk about your classic overreaction.

I'm truly confused on how Bronco mismanaged the clock in this game. Especially considering he doesn't have a thing to do with offensive playcalls.

He doesn't give his OC any direction?
