Anyone remember Matt Herian after he came back from the broken leg?

Herian was arguably the top NFL Tight End prospect in college football before his injury in 2004.

After returning from the injury, Herian was really a shell of his previous self.

I realize we have a lot of closet BYU fans here who love Taysom Hill, but I think those fans are suffering from wishful thinking. Hill runs like Scott Frost with a quicker first step. I find it difficult to believe he's going to come back with the same effectiveness.

His receivers are excellent and their success in the passing game stemmed from opponents focusing their backers and safeties on Hill running the football.

If he is unable to maintain the same potent threat with his legs, then nobody should be concerned about his ability to throw the football. I've been watching s bunch of BYU games and highlights. Their scheme is actually quite simple, and the lack of complexity makes it easy to defend without a dynamic runner behind center.

Call me a skeptic.
