Problem is that we need one as good as Bronco going forward.. With P5 money, recruiting and
status, there is no reason we shouldn't have that either. We can't have a guy that would be fine in a G5 league.

I miss Bronco’s defenses:

I miss Brady Poppinga

I think Wilgar has some Poppinga traits. But tough to make big plays sitting back and taking on guards every play.

Bronco had some awesome defenses. And some really poor ones.

Only 2 were average or below since 2007 and none nearly as bad as last year.

Depends which set of analytics you look at.

And 2 of Crowton’s terrible defenses were with Bronco as the DC

Lol. You think BYU’s defenses in both 2003 and 2004 were bad?
mulletino
10/5/22 3:10pm
They were both average or a little below, statistically. But a big improvement
shoganai
10/5/22 3:48pm
Naturally, after Crowton signed all those players in 2004 that got thrown out, left, and/or ultimately murdered people

Bronco was a very average recruiter, but his talent tended to over-perform its

You mean the defensive players that Bronco helped recruit and failed to control?

Prove it. Bronco is the biggest disciplinarian BYU's has ever employed.
mulletino

Bronco's discipline may have saved BYU football. BYU football couldn't take any more problems at that time.

So he had 2 bad defenses in 13 seasons as HC/DC?
mulletino

2014 wasn’t good either

The year BYU would have gone undefeated if not for Taysom's injury? yeah, that year.

2005 is pretty understandable given the Crowton yrs and the number of recruiting misses.

If you're arguing that Bronco is a better defensive coach than Tuiaki, you won't

If someone as good as Bronco is the requirement, we are hopeless.
shoganai

I'm fine if they don't stay long term. Teach the defensive assistants we have to take over.
ManicBlue
10/5/22 4:30pm
Sounds like you've got it all figured out.
shoganai
10/5/22 4:35pm
Wishful thinking. However, I wouldn't mind these guys either.
ManicBlue
10/5/22 4:42pm
I'm sure they'd be strong candidates if there was a job opening at BYU.

I can see why you used the 2004 highlights and not the 2005 game.

The BYU 3-3-5 experiment ended poorly, but the 3-4 went well for the most part.

Actually it was just what popped up on my Instagram feed. But yeah, Bronco didn’t have much to work with in 2005.

Bronco made me excited about the defense for the 1st time

I miss the sideline lineup and count then run onto the field thing.

He was the DC and HC from 2006-2009. And other years.

Had to go all the way back to when he first arrived to help Crowton with his dumpster fire? hahaha

Bronco had some great defenses. But the competition was not the same as what we have faced this year and last.
