I think he meant Devontae Christopher...

...who was a 3 star QB but I think an argument can be made he was never intended to be a QB. Also, I thought I read that kruger spent less than a full practice at QB before moving to defense. All jibbing aside, you can't argue with the results on that move. When Jason Buck went to Ricks he was an option QB, it was a no-brainer for him as well.

Interesting Chase Hansen tidbit

Utah's model has been to tell kids they get a shot QB until they get on campus.

Blueto

Actually that isn't true. It is a myth perpetrated by BYU fans.

Never recruited as a QB. Also a Meyer recruit.

mpfunk

Brian Blechen was recruited as a QB

runnincoug

9/30/14 1:28pm

No he wasn't.

mpfunk

9/30/14 1:31pm

Of course he was, here's the evidence

Boom. Dang that had to hurt.

And that was the last they heard of mpfunk; legend says he became a BYU fan

I was wrong about Blechen.

Sad day to see a fellow BYU grad like funk get smacked like that.

Shimmy

9/30/14 4:07pm

OUCH. That's the best smackdown I've seen on CB in a long time

TrueAndBlue

9/30/14 5:08pm

Blechen was offered as a QB at the Utah camp.

hanzelka

9/30/14 4:49pm

Unlike Whitt who moves them all to other positions & doesn't backfill the depth

icecougar

9/30/14 6:47pm

I spent the spring game before Hansen left sitting next to his family

hanzelka

9/30/14 4:52pm

Chad Manis too. These are just the obvious ones.

runnincoug

9/30/14 1:31pm

Manis was a QB for several seasons.

mpfunk

9/30/14 3:34pm

Actually just one season (3 games), and one season as a redshirt

runnincoug

9/30/14 3:37pm

Paul Kruger. Devonte Booker.

Blueto

9/30/14 1:31pm

Kruger was a QB for an entire season

mpfunk

Booker wasn't recruited as a QB, he was a running back at a junior college.

maxpowers

Chase Hansen (but now it's in doubt if he'll get a shot)

TheDeek

9/30/14 1:35pm

That's because Whit isn't going to want to start a Cougar at QB

JamesDean

9/30/14 4:03pm

Devonte Christopher- wow you are losing this argument badly

BigYfan

9/30/14 1:55pm

Christopher was a QB for a full season.

mpfunk

9/30/14 3:33pm

How kind of Whitt for letting him pretend to be a QB

BigYfan

Previous coaching staff.

Kyle Brady was a RB and lasted 1 day before they put him at Safety

MPFunk asked only about QBs changing positions, but here's some more

By the way prove that they were promised

mpfunk

9/30/14 3:37pm

sigh....here's the words out of Kyle Whittingham's mouth

runnincoug

9/30/14 3:43pm

So he admits they will change positions

mpfunk

9/30/14 3:46pm

What they tell the media apparently isn't what they are telling recruits

runnincoug

Give it a rest funky you are making yourself look silly

You know Chase is coming to BYU, right?

JamesDean

9/30/14 6:08pm

Paul Krueger. Went to high school with him.

9/30/14 6:15pm

The LB from Tooele.

Rocketman

9/30/14 10:03pm

Whitt doesn't do that. Signed, Paul Kruger

icecougar

9/30/14 6:31pm

You mean a player that was recruited by Urban Meyer?

mpfunk

10/1/14 10:16am

And then those kids end up having great careers. See Kruger and Devonte

truecoug1

Utah is up front with kids.

Kimmel reads CB. Nice to know

9/30/14 1:11pm

Kimmel is well-connected.

flavordave

9/30/14 1:28pm

Whit's starting to play the "it'll hurt your recruiting" if you fire me card.

9/30/14 1:11pm

Because it will. I would LOVE to see Whitt fired for this reason...

teancum

9/30/14 1:15pm

And send Sitake away as well.

kccougar

9/30/14 1:21pm

why?

digitalayon

9/30/14 2:11pm

Because Sitake is the lifeblood of Utah recruiting. Send him to Provo

kccougar

9/30/14 2:14pm

Not sure he plays QB at BYU either though.

lawboy

9/30/14 1:17pm

Utah did not sign an Elite 11 kid. He attended an Elite 11 regional camp

darkcoug

9/30/14 1:20pm

Utah didn't sign an elite 11 kid. He will play DE/TE according to reports.

9/30/14 1:20pm

I'd definitely give Chase a shot at QB

My opinion (I am not an insider, but not wholly on the outside either)

BYU might be more interested in him at QB now though. He was originally told he

The statistician in me disagrees with you

this is what they said as soon as Langi rumors started surfacing (RBvsLB)
