        One of those played hurt most of the year and collective improvement of the weak links can make the whole better. Go get your balls back from your wife's purse you string pulling pussy.

          BTW, that line of reasoning is fatally flawed. It can always get worse.

                  Goatnapper hasn't predicted they'll get better. That gives me hope.

                        I like that.

                        For the last several years, if memory serves, when the BYU OL is supposed to be good (M. Reynolds' senior year, e.g.) they usually underperform, and when they are supposed to be bad/rebuilding/learning (the year they only had 6 guys healthy, e.g.) they usually are pretty solid. Based on that unscientific analysis, I think the 2013 OL has a chance.

                        Also, if the coaching change rumors prove to be true, then it could make a big difference, just as the switch from Grimes to Weber made a big difference.

                        Lastly, I have it on good authority that the people of San Diego kept Elder Kanuch well fed and healthy.

                          Last night after the game and listening to Wrubbell, Lyons and Nate, I got the feeling maybe Weber isn't the problem. I think it was one of them or at least someone close to the program say Weber did wonders this year because they were down to 5 lineman and couldn't practice. He had to do a lot of unique things because of the lack of depth.

                          Maybe it was actually on KBYU I heard that. Anyway, Weber has an excuse so I am not so sure he is gone.

                          Reynolds retired. Interesting, someone somewhere predicted he was going to be pushed out.

                            Yes, but he's on record calling doubters on this issue pussies. So I'm going to say that's a virtual lock we will have the worst OL in NCAA next year.

                              Maybe Reynolds is the reason Riley was foisted upon us...
