I think he would have been a smashing sucess. The rumor the U might go after him if KW goes down scares me to death. He could attract great assistants. His recruiting would be incredible. He'd be damn motivated wanting to prove himself being labeled a lifetime assistant. You wanted KW over Bronco. So if you're being sarcastic with me about BYU lucking out with Bronco, don't even try. If you're BYU and you bungle the KW offer and back yourself into a corner where you're choosing from current assistants from a lousy coaching regime that nobody in D1 would want, then yes you are lucky if that coach succeeds. That doesn't take anything away from Bronco now. I'm all for him. |

I'm not sarcastic about BYU lucking out with Bronco. BYU had 3 legit choices: Whitt, Bronco and Reynolds; and none of them exactly inspired awe and wonder at the time. BYU was EXTREMELY fortunate that Bronco has worked out so well thus far, because their prospects list was so ridiculously small. |

Yes Bronco just had a great year with a senior-laden team. So did Urban Meyer. So did Gary Crowton.
Let's see how he performs when the talent pool is not as favorably stacked in his favor, such as last season for example. |

The thing Bronco has going for him in 2007 is that he has a fair number of returning starters (including 4 of the OL) and the talent pool isn't bone dry at certain positions going forward.
Bronco is a much stronger HC from an organizational standpoint and the crop of 2007 recruits appear to meet virtually all of our positional needs. |

To me, it looks like a good crop, but I don't see any immediate need-filler types. |

I'm not sure there are any screaming immediate needs for BYU next year. |

Well, CB is still a concern and I'm worried about lack of depth on the Dline. We know we will experience ups and downs with the QB so we should experience approximately a two to three game drop off in wins. A seven to eight game win total will be successful based on experience of QB.

We only lose one CB (Robinson) and one DL (Paongo). I'm not sure we could bring in any QB that would be more ready or able to play next year than Hall (though we just offered Cade Cooper from Snow).
Yes, we should expect a dropoff next year. Hopefully it isn't too big. Having nearly the entire OL back (including backups) along with Vakapuna and Tonga at RB will take some of the pressure off of the new QB. |
