Bronco is terrible at clock management and a horrible game coach.

I do know that he's stated more than once that he gives NO input on the offensive playcalling.


Again, I'm truly confused at what specific issues you had in regards to the clock management on Saturday. I'd be happy to consider what issues you had, but at this point I'm willing to bet you're in the same vein as the guy sitting near me at the UNLV game who was yelling for the team to "hurry things up" when they were driving with SIX minutes left and seemed to be taking their time.

(And yes, I did mock the guy. I began a long (and loud) conversation with my brother about how much time six minutes is, and how BYU hasn't had a scoring drive over six minutes all year. And no, I don't know if that's entirely accurate. )

So in one month's time Bronco was on track to be the greatest coach in BYU history and now he is horrible?

I have to believe there are six guys out there with good athletic ability willing to come to BYU. I bet a guy like Austin Collie would have made a good corner. Chambers is another guy that would probably make a good corner. BYU shouldn't have any problem recruiting safeties.

I think our biggest problem is scheme. Playing deep zone all the time is not effective. You can't zone every down just as you can't blitz every down. There needs to be some element of surprise.

If BYU lacks talent, it is the coaching staff's fault. They are doing the recruiting. It seems they are locking up the recruits they want really early. If they aren't sure about they guys they are recruiting, they shouldn't offer so early.
