    Remember the four weeks in August of 2004 when we were all excited about Matt Gutierrez being the future of the program? His injury will always be one of the program's big "what if" questions.

      Yea a huge what if. It's not like the guy that replaced him was a 4 year starter. Who happened to lead us to the Rose Bowl his freshman year.
