CougarbibGot bored and read several of these - highlights.
Bronco acknowledged issues with team fitness in 2011. Then he clarified that it was a problem rooted in the informal workouts. And where was the team leader.
Several players note stronger leadership this year including Van Noy.
At least one player noted that the OL is chiseled - looking like an NFL line.
Goals are a bit more realistic - but still a stretch. It was noted that BYU has never finished in the Top 10 under Mendenhall. So no NC or BCS Bowl claims - just a statement by Bronco that this team is capable of a top 10 finish. So the season is not over after 1 loss. This team would have a remote shot with 2 losses with wins over two good teams on the road.
Mendenhall acknowledged that BYU needs to win games they are not supposed to win and go undefeated - maybe twice - to sniff the NC.
Defense returns 7 starters - but also a number of players who started in earlier seasons or who played a lot.
Two tight ends plus Hoff plus KVN plus Nelsonmade watch lists.
Nelson - on a watch list and his PER stands out. Just repeat that PER for a full season and BYU will be fun to watch. Really fun.
