Zach Wilson’s deployment of tight end production returns BYU’s offense to its storied roots.
If you try to list all the great ones, it’s tough because you’re sure to miss somebody. But hunt through the time periods from the days of Doug Scovil, Mike Holmgren, Ted Tollner and Norm Chow to Lance Reynolds and Robert Anae and you find BYU’s tight end position producing sometimes eight or 12 catches a game.
Like a lifeline.
Just pick a few names if you don’t want to open the entire catalog of BYU tight ends.
Remember how Jonny Harline high pointed the ball in his last game against Utah when covered by All-American safety Eric Weddle, then ultimately caught the game-winner on what seemed an eternity play with John Beck?
