LaVell Edwards, highly-successful football coach at Brigham Young for 29 seasons, has died at "86".  Becoming head-coach in 1972 at a traditionally-moribund football school, LaVell installed a dynamic passing-attack, bringing in quarterbacks such as Jim McMahon, Steve Young, Ty Detmer, Robbie Bosco, and Marc Wilson, for the trigger.  In 1984, LaVell's team went 13-0, and then beat Michigan in the Holiday Bowl, to give a Mormon school in the middle of nowhere, a National Championship.  LaVell, one of 14 children, leaves his wife of 65 years, Patti, and 3 children.  Called by Orrin Hatch  ...a humble but confident leader...  He'll be missed
