I know it's hard for you ute fans to believe that it's more than just

a BYU vs utah thing but it's more like a Nike vs under armour thing. Players committing to Rivals schools (or ones that subscribe to their service) tend to get higher rankings on their site than players that commit to schools that don't subscribe. Does that make it a bit more clear ? It's not some 'BYU conspiracy'. hahaha

I just think it's silly. There's no grand conspiracy against BYU.

The difference is that Utah gets good skill position players out of HS.
