Dick Harmon: Zach Wilson needs a hungry push from Jaren Hall, Joe Critchlow in offseason

Now that Tanner Mangum is finished with the program, Zach Wilson needs a new competitor to challenge him.

The likely candidates on BYU’s football roster are Joe Critchlow and Jaren Hall.

How important is this?

Well, it’s kind of alpha dog stuff. Packs rely on it; so do athletic teams.

It is crucial for Wilson to be driven to develop, work hard, and feel a push in formal and informal workouts from the weight room to just gathering around throwing the football during the winter months. He needs to believe somebody really wants his job.
