“Commenting on the decisions of the Bowl Alliance regarding WAC teams: It's a step, no question. Obviously, it's not what any of us wanted, but it's at least a step. We can now say we're part of the Alliance. However, I hope it's not perceived that they bought us off and we're going to go away. It's not fair. It's not right; we still need to fight. We can't let them go away and hide. Other schools are taking a major share of the pot, and that's still a major sore point as far as I'm concerned. But at least this is a step, and better than what we had in the past.” - LaVell Edwards (1931- ) Interview by Andy Boogaard, Fresno Bee, at WAC preseason meetings, August 5, 1997 - US head football coach, Brigham Young Univ. since 1972, record 251-95-3 at end of 1999.
