Dick Harmon: BYU scatbacks Dye, Hall are small, humble and admirably coachable

PROVO — Trey Dye and KJ Hall display great, fleet-footed gifts in a game of giants.

The two scatback-type running backs who are battling for playing time and competing against taller, bigger backs like Riley Burt and Squally Canada, may be faster and may have to display more reasons why they should play. But, in a game that is little more than an organized fight, they remain humble.

Not church-mouse humble. They’re just simply grateful to be present at the party.

I like that.

They're two players — whose fathers, James Dye and Kalin Hall, paved the path before them — who will take any opportunity they are given.
