Former BYU quarterback Brandon Doman credits legendary coach LaVell Edwards for instilling the confidence that he could win, according to a retrospective piece by Dave McCann of the Deseret News.
The article revisits the November 24, 2000 matchup between BYU and Utah at Rice Eccles Stadium, where Doman went head-to-head with Utah's Arnold Parker. Edwards' trust in his quarterback played a pivotal role in Doman's mindset during the rivalry game.
Doman, who played under Edwards at BYU, has previously spoken about the coach's influence on his career. The 2000 contest at Rice Eccles Stadium remains a notable chapter in the Holy War rivalry between the two Utah schools.
