Couldn't he go the Star path, play at Snow, get qualified, them go play at Utah?

Also, isn't it possible they find the 9th grade transcript and he qualifies?

Yes, but he is "going to Utah" with the intention of receiving a scholarship now

"find" his 9th grade transcripts. Yeah I wouldn't doubt it at Utah.

I thought going to Yewtah gave one 9th grade credit

I think it is pretty obvious... He had a lifestyle change and no longer wants

Whit promised him he would be able to go home....

maybe Utah was holding the 9th grade transcripts hostage.

Or made up faulse docs. Something BYU will not do, DANG IT.

Why would Utah work so hard for a kid

Redbird

8/6/13 10:44pm

It's because it's BS. BYU can't take a non-qualifier.

Scratch

8/6/13 10:51pm

Pita wouldn't be a non qualifier he would

whoneedscorners?

8/6/13 10:55pm

So BYU is less demanding in its admission requirements for athletes?

Scratch

8/6/13 11:03pm

In some circumstances it makes sense with how much byu encourages enrollment

whoneedscorners?

8/6/13 11:10pm

I'm actually fine with it. I think there are instances where the circumstances

Scratch

8/6/13 11:25pm

As a follow up, it would be absurd if a kid like Pita,

Scratch

8/6/13 11:27pm

I agree. And it doesn't matter if it's byu or utah

whoneedscorners?

8/6/13 11:34pm

I honestly have no idea what bronco's policy on that is

whoneedscorners?

8/6/13 11:30pm

They have done just that.

It has happened several times. The Laufasa kid just last year that you seem

NewMexiCoug

8/7/13 5:54am

That's fair and I can understand why you would do that as Talo is a homer

whoneedscorners?

8/6/13 10:52pm

Don't be ridiculous, if Pita T doesn't qualify, it doesn't mean that

RSLTID

8/6/13 11:20pm

Maybe. But it's just like redbird said

whoneedscorners?

8/6/13 11:25pm

There's a huge difference between "doesn't" and "can't."

Scratch

8/6/13 11:29pm

He already has the act score. So it's mainly a transcript issue

whoneedscorners?

8/6/13 11:32pm

It can't possibly be can't. Do you really think that his coach

Scratch

8/6/13 11:41pm

That's a fair point

whoneedscorners?

8/6/13 11:49pm

you raise some good pts but the chasen scholarship pt is more complicated

cosmo8486

8/6/13 10:55pm

The best question is probably the one about Chasen Anderson

LV Coug

8/7/13 12:50am

not so. read my post right above yours.

If he is not eligible, he can't play at BYU

Pita's 9th grade transcripts and the search for the Holy Grail

Fair enough.

Not sure what I am allowed to share here

Medute

I actually read somewhere Coach Kaufusi DID travel to Tonga

jdub

It says that here (link):

So, Medute, do you feel a little silly now? I guess BYU really did work...

jdub

8/7/13 8:59am

I don't feel silly at all

Medute

8/7/13 2:38pm

Too bad you couldn't man up when you were shown to be wrong.

jdub

8/7/13 2:45pm

What was I wrong about?

Medute

8/7/13 2:48pm

You didn't understand the article. Pita was not in Tonga at the time. Kaufusi

NewMexiCoug

what difference does it make?

It's one thing to have a yewt on the board, but when he trys to mock my religion

ol' Blue Eyes

Easy there turbo

Medute

8/7/13 2:41pm

Nice try on the back-track. Everything in your message was dripping with mock!

ol' Blue Eyes

8/7/13 5:05pm

But where was the mock directed?

Medute

8/7/13 5:25pm

okay...we're good now!

ol' Blue Eyes

8/7/13 6:32pm

They also promised him he could play QB
