No scholarship issues had he come back when he said he was coming back.

The bottom line is that Murphy wanted to go play for Utah, so he did. Same as Sharp, but opposite direction. Both players found a loophole and took it to go play for the school they wanted to play for.

Well said. I agree. Cool experience to play for dad at a big school.

BYU-Texas

6/25/13 9:00am

I agree with this.

lawboy

6/25/13 9:00am

He sits and loses a year, right?

KingDave

6/25/13 9:00am

I doubt it. I could see him just getting released from the scholly by BYU

BYU-Texas

6/25/13 9:03am

I hope BYU doesn't release him. Make him sit a year.

Big Wally D

6/25/13 9:24am

No way. We aren't Chow.

BYU-Texas

6/25/13 9:26am

There's a reason for the rule and this seems to fit exactly into that rule.

Big Wally D

6/25/13 9:29am

If it wasnt for the fact that his dad is the coach, I would say "make him sit"

BE-WHY-YOU

6/25/13 9:33am

If I was his dad I would tell him to stick to his commitment.

Big Wally D

6/25/13 9:44am

Huh, kind of like the Sharp kid that plays for BYU basketball...

jt04

6/25/13 9:47am

Sharp sat out two years. It's fine if Andersen wants to sit, redshirt, or missio

Big Wally D

6/25/13 9:51am

This is an excellent point:

Finngirl

6/25/13 9:53am

Home was just up the road then.

IGlowInTheDark

6/25/13 9:57am

it would be for me but for a lot of NCAA athletes, its also

Finngirl

6/25/13 10:01am

I thought he committed to BYU after his dad left for Wisky

BYU-Texas

6/25/13 9:59am

You completely contradict yourself here.

jt04

6/25/13 10:03am

Still whining about Sharp transferring after his mission? Coach K would be proud

cougarmeister

6/25/13 10:53am

Completely different. Sharp signed a LOI then turned his back on Utah. Same thin

jt04

6/25/13 1:53pm

No scholarship issues had he come back when he said he was coming back.

cougarick

6/25/13 2:00pm

Justification is like.....

jt04

6/25/13 3:13pm

As I said, he went where he wanted. Or can you not read?

cougarick

6/25/13 3:26pm

Did BYU have a scholarship available for him?

jt04

6/25/13 5:25pm

Yep. In the fall like they agreed they would.

arek

6/25/13 5:30pm

Wrong.

jt04

6/25/13 6:04pm

Shut the crap up. BYU did no turning of its back on Murphy.

cougarick

6/26/13 6:48am

LOL. You ranting does nothing to disspell that Murphy's situation is completely

jt04

6/26/13 11:19am

Oh, you're a woman scorned. Got it.

cougarick

6/26/13 11:43am

In a world that shows no commitment to its athletes...

IGlowInTheDark

6/25/13 9:56am

I agree. Why is it that scholarships are on a year to year basis, but to leave,

jt04

6/25/13 10:04am

The only problem with that sentiment is his dad was the coach before he signed

cougarick

6/25/13 11:23am

I'm not worried that all of our recruits whose dads coach for BCS programs

Tricky

6/25/13 10:29am

If he signed a NLOI, how is he doing this?

HuskerFan2

6/25/13 9:04am

Probably. Bronco would do that for Gary. Be smart to.

lawboy

6/25/13 9:05am

It's not like Gary is taking recruits from Utah. What does Bronco owe to Gary?

Big Wally D

6/25/13 9:53am

It's not about what you owe him, it's about not looking petty. Plus scheduling.

lawboy

6/25/13 10:02am

Im sure Bronco will simply release him. Bronco just wants kids to succeed, no

BE-WHY-YOU

6/25/13 9:05am

So does this guy:

benny1982

6/25/13 9:06am

LOL

BE-WHY-YOU

6/25/13 9:06am

Big name Notre Dame signee transferred to UCLA

JamesWestfall

6/25/13 9:21am

The only way he doesn't lose a year is if he goes on a mission

Lance71

6/25/13 9:28am

I don't think it will matter.

lawboy

6/25/13 9:36am

Great points.

Zach Morris

6/25/13 9:04am

Best of luck to him.

BE-WHY-YOU

6/25/13 9:06am

Had he not enrolled? Too bad.

chago04

6/25/13 9:17am

That's too bad, but it's always easier to lose a kid who hasn't even seen the

Byron McNertney

6/25/13 9:22am

Is Auston Johnson still available?

Captain Stubing

6/25/13 9:23am

I forgot about that guy. The schollie he was hoping for went to Andersen.

BE-WHY-YOU

6/25/13 9:41am

He never actually had a FBS offer and signed with South Dakota St.

molodyets

6/25/13 12:37pm

Why? Was offseason workout culture hard to take at BYU? Cmon

Y4LYFE

6/25/13 9:44am

Personally, I would not want to play on the team where my Dad was coach

Point-in-case: Cody Hawkins

HoustonBlueCougar

6/25/13 10:00am

QB is vastly different from LB.

lawboy

6/25/13 10:09am

Talking about the situation, not the position.

HoustonBlueCougar

6/25/13 5:50pm

That's true in little league. At the college level players know who is good

RedlandsCoug

6/25/13 10:03am

Maybe we can get another H/H out of the deal. It's only fair.

JDBlue

6/25/13 10:23am

I wish him well if true... it's still just a rumor though. Having it confirmed

aTmcoug

6/25/13 10:25am

I will be more cautious from now on.

Crewblue

6/25/13 10:53am

It's simpler than that. There are a lot of weenies on an anonymous

We like to crucify all our insiders-see Shoganai, New Jersey Coug, Blue Brotha

CougarPilot

6/25/13 12:11pm

Bluebrotha is the only one of those three that was ever right...

Zach Morris

6/25/13 12:33pm

I'm still undecided about Shog...but New Jersey Coug had ESPN friends

CougarPilot

6/25/13 4:13pm

Fair enough. He very well could have. Again I think

Zach Morris

6/25/13 4:23pm

No he didn't he was a Yewt Troll and got owned by CBers when they found out.

BYU-Texas

6/25/13 5:17pm

New Jersey Coug? That's surprising...do you have a link?

CougarPilot

6/26/13 8:24pm

He's been permanently deleted. No history of a single post.

Big loss..still surprised by this however!

Plus be in the B 10 and see great places and teams each week.

GOBIGBLUE

Pretty hard to miss a mediocre player who has never set foot on the field.

JamesDean

6/25/13 1:06pm

Frankly, who could blame him? I wish him well, too bad it didnt work out
