Nate SlackHOST
It can be a, a former athlete, a, a musician, an entertainer.
Nate SlackHOST
Uh, when BYU hosted GameDay, the lone time they've ever hosted College GameDay, in 2009 against TCU, they had LaVell Edwards come on.
Nate SlackHOST
Feel like that was an easy pull, just get LaVell on there, uh, give him some flowers, and then have him talk about BYU.
Nate SlackHOST
Who are some of the names that you think should, should be the guest pickers, uh, should College GameDay come to BYU next week?
8 MINS LATER
Nate SlackHOST
Yeah.
Nate SlackHOST
[laughs]
Mitch HarperHOST
Uh, the, the late, great Lavell Edwards and Lou Holtz, that would've just been epic television to have both of those guys up there.
Mitch HarperHOST
I'm trying to think.
Barry TrammellGUEST
Uh, so, um, home field seems to really matter a lot, and we'll see if, uh, if that continues, that's a pretty heavy percentage that probably will come back to earth a little bit.
Barry TrammellGUEST
But I, uh, I do think home court really matters, and, uh, certainly BYU's got a good one there at Lavell Edwards.
Barry TrammellGUEST
So, um, I don't, I don't expect this to be a problem, even though L.J. Martin is not playing.
Barry TrammellGUEST
And let me tell you something, guys, I don't know.
Colby DantHOST
...
Colby DantHOST
LaVell Edwards Stadium.
Colby DantHOST
I'm starting to feel better about this one, McIntosh.
Ryan McIntyreHOST
Dude, D'Ercole went out, right?
Colby DantHOST
I didn't know L.J. Martin...
Colby DantHOST
I didn't know L.J. Martin was out, so it's like, oh, okay.
Colby DantHOST
Iowa State heading to LaVell Ed- to the Provo LaVell Edwards Stadium to take on BYU.
Colby DantHOST
BYU, they've been labeling this one, uh, the Notre Dame game.
Paul FinebaumHOST
By the way, y- it doesn't have to be about him and, but just your whole, your whole journey would be a great book.
Holly RoweGUEST
Well, if you, well, if you think about it, I have, like, I have files and files of notes from Bobby Bowden, Joe Paterno, Lavell Edwards, um, Nick Saban, you know, Steve Spurrier.
Holly RoweGUEST
I- some of the, some of the greatest of the greats that we've ever seen in coaching.
Holly RoweGUEST
So I, I consider those to be very precious.
Jeff CameronHOST
Iowa and Washington, Alaska Airlines Field at Husky Stadium.
Jeff CameronHOST
And then finally, Iowa State and BYU at LaVell Edwards Stadium.
Jeff CameronHOST
Tom doesn't remember LaVell Edwards, even though he coached at a time where Tom was in his teen years.
Tom LangHOST
I don't remember him.
Tom LangHOST
I'm sorry.
Barry TrammellGUEST
It probably'll come back to earth a little bit.
Barry TrammellGUEST
But I, uh, I do think home court really matters, and, uh, certainly BYU's got a good one there at Lavell Edwards.
Barry TrammellGUEST
So, um, I don't, I don't expect this to be a problem, even though L.J. Martin is not playing.
Barry TrammellGUEST
And let me tell you something, guys, I don't know.

David JamesHOST
When Majerus was really good with the Utes, he would get in the, uh, Maui Invitational.
David JamesHOST
And so I, I, I mi- I didn't mind that.
David JamesHOST
Uh, but, uh, watching BYU and Utah play in Lavell Edwards' last game from a hotel in Puerto Rico, a hotel room in Puerto Rico by myself wasn't exactly, uh, a fun time.
Barry TrammellGUEST
No.
Mitch HarperGUEST
He was the defense coordinator with Whittingham for a long time.
Mitch HarperGUEST
And even before that, those two were both influenced by Lavelle Edwards at BYU.
Mitch HarperGUEST
But obviously, Lavelle was known for the offensive side.
Mitch HarperGUEST
But Kalani cut his teeth defensively with Kyle Whittingham at Utah.
Alec BusseHOST
They're on a nine-game home winning streak.
Alec BusseHOST
They're 11-4 on Fridays under Kalani Satake.
Alec BusseHOST
I understand that Lavelle Edwards Stadium looks like the greatest party ever on a night game.
Alec BusseHOST
What makes playing there to be such a fun environment for the home team and such a terrible place to exist for approximately three hours once the sun goes down behind the mountains?
Jill McBride BaxterHOST
Yeah.
Jill McBride BaxterHOST
So if you look back on your career and think about different head coaches, like Coach Tomey, what do you think Coach Tomey would think about this? I think about him all the time because I think, what would Coach Tomey think about the NIL? What would he think about the Rev Share? Because he was also a big advocate for Lavelle.
Jill McBride BaxterHOST
I mean, these guys have all passed.
Jill McBride BaxterHOST
What would Lavelle Edwards have thought? What do you think their opinions would have been?
Ron McBrideGUEST
Well, Dick Tomey would have...
Ron McBrideGUEST
And for the players.
Wes ReynoldsGUEST
They're at the very end, but I do think BYU, I think they'll be ready for this.
Wes ReynoldsGUEST
I don't know if it's a total look ahead, but it's hard when you've got the Irish coming to Lavelle Edwards stadium and Provo, not a neutral site game.
Wes ReynoldsGUEST
You know, they're not playing this, you know, somewhere in Texas or something, you know, Notre Dame can sometimes play these neutral site games against these big schools.
Wes ReynoldsGUEST
They're going to Provo to face this team at a, at a conference.
Jason ScukanecHOST
... that's pathetic.
Jason ScukanecHOST
But like Lavell Edwards at BYU, he was a really nice man.
Jason ScukanecHOST
Now he didn't really coach me, but he was a good man.
Jason ScukanecHOST
So I said I had good coaches, but the people that I actually dealt with for the most part were not great leaders of men.
