Shake-Up on BYU Offensive Staff

My father writes:
This is unpublished, hot off the presses news that can be found no where else.  Mark Atuaia, a former running back at BYU and a soon to be law school graduate at the Y and a current assistant coach who can be seen on TV during telecasts will be the new running backs coach at BYU along with Ty Detmer who will coach the QB's.  I have an unimpeachable source so you can run with it.  I am not sure on the spelling of his last name.  He played in the 90's.

Mo Writes:
Atuaia played with Detmer before his mission and Sarkisian after.  He was more of a pass-catcher than a runner.  He is a very recognizable face: he is always standing behind Bronco when they show pictures of Bronco on TV.

Based on this news, if it is news: Doman would certainly become the Offensive Coordinator, since Bronco obviously feels very highly about him.  That means RB Coach Lance Reynolds would be gone, which means that perhaps Matt Reynolds leaves early for the NFL.  This is pure speculation on my part...

  1. Isn't Reynolds the OL coach? Or does he do both?

  2. That was between you and me and you put it on your website?
    Lance is not the OL coach as that is Weber. Lance is the ass't head coach and I believe he is the running backs coach.

  3. Yes, Lance Reynolds is the RB Coach. He produced a lot of OL at home though!
