Asked if he would like to be considered for BYU’s open offensive coordinator job, Cougars legend Robbie Bosco hesitated for the length of time it takes a lightning bolt to crackle out of the sky and hit the ground.
The way he said it made you think such a challenge would rank on his to-do list somewhere between swimming naked across the piranha-infested Amazon at feeding time and disemboweling himself. Thanks, but … uh, no.
The only quarterback at BYU to win a national championship — Bosco went 24-3 in his two years as a starter, twice finishing third in the Heisman Trophy voting — didn’t want the headache, didn’t want any part of the headache.
