Andy Reid, head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs, talks about the influence LaVell Edwards had on him during BYU Football Media Day at BYU Broadcasting in Provo on Friday, June 23, 2017.

PROVO — This year's BYU football media day turned into a mix of nostalgia and football talk, in addition to the usual joking banter, for those on hand.

Part of that look back at the Cougars' football roots was to celebrate the life of BYU Hall of Fame coach LaVell Edwards, who died Dec. 29, 2016.

One of the biggest names returning to BYU's campus on Friday for the event was Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid, a former Cougar player and graduate assistant under Edwards.
