Re: Chris Pella

Nice guys, all of them, but It was a good thing that someone had the guts to pull plug on the USU FB coaching career of all 4 of those guys. Perhaps it is just perception, but ever since GA1, it feels like Utah State FB has been on a bit different trajectory. What has been the difference? Whet need...
