After announcing that the 2000 season would be his last before retirement Last winter I made the decision to coach for only one more season. I have been wrestling with the timing of announcing that decision.

After attending a banquet honoring the 1974 BYU team that won the Western Athletic Conference and went to the Fiesta Bowl. It was the first of Edwards' 18 WAC champions and 21 bowl teams. That was the group of kids that totally changed the direction of my life and the direction of our football program. We started 0-3-1 and won seven or eight in a row. They were the first bowl team in school history. I hadn't really accomplished anything yet. To see all those guys reminded me where we've been. It was an emotional night.

The testimony of the gospel of Jesus Christ that I have, along with my wife and my family, are my most important possessions.

Speaking as he unintentionally launched his farewell tour by announcing that the 2000 season would be his last before retirement Honestly, I had never, ever in my wildest dreams believed I would ever do this.
