BYU coaches believe they can generate enough offense with the talent at hand; they said the same thing last year, too

Provo • To the chagrin of some of their fans, BYU football coaches didn’t turn to the junior college ranks for offensive help in the offseason.

The Cougars didn’t land an accomplished quarterback or receiver, despite lacking offensive firepower and legitimate game-breakers in 2017.

They did get fifth-year graduate transfer Dylan Collie, a former Cougar who played receiver at Hawaii the past few years and is the brother of one of the most prolific receivers in BYU history, Austin Collie.

The younger Collie caught 56 passes for 636 yards for the Warriors last year, numbers that would have made him BYU’s top pass-catcher.
