It has been a busy week. I left Marta and the boys at home and headed to Vegas with Marta's dad to the Vegas Bowl. He and a few people from his office were running the hospitality suite for the players and their families so I went down to help him with that. It was fun to be behind the scenes and see all the preparation that goes into these games. I also got some pretty good tidbits from BYU football insiders. Here are some of the good ones: 1. we expect to sign a defensive lineman as a transfer from USC on Monday. The kid is a 5-star talent who just didn't click with USC and is a stud. 2. Heaps is apparently the real deal and we should expect him to play next year as a true freshman. 3. Two years ago in a game Max Hall suffered the same shoulder injury to the same degree as Sam Bradford. Max got up, finished the game, and never missed a start while Bradford was out for the year. 4. Sounds to me like Unga is going to declare for the draft and skip his senior year.
The game itself was great - except for the 50mph winds. BYU came to play and it was clear that they were there to make a statement. We made it home yesterday and Marta made it through as a single mom for a few days.
