BYU's Greatest Players: DL Chris Hoke Reflects On Playing For LaVell

In honor of the 100th season of BYU Football, KSL Sports BYU Insider Mitch Harper caught up with some of the greatest players in program history.

During this episode, he spoke with BYU DL Chris Hoke and reflected on his time playing for the Cougars and what it was like to play for LaVell Edwards.

Few collegiate football programs have a history as fabled as BYU’s. The Cougars squared off in their first official football game – with brutal rules and no protective gear – on October 7th, 1922. They were obliterated. 

Fast forward 100 years, and BYU is set to enter the Big 12 Conference. Thanks to the legendary coaching of LaVell Edwards, the iconic athleticism of Jim McMahon, Robbie Bosco and hundreds more, and the ethics and sportsmanship inspired by LDS culture, BYU football is poised for new levels of greatness.  Hear the trials and traditions of BYU football from the icons themselves on A Century of Cougar Football, coming soon from KSL Podcasts.
