fools errand. There are so many different variables. Two players with the same coaching and opportunity will develop differently. Some thrive, others develop more slowly, others regress.

We have had solid LB's until this year. They have been poor this year.....

Can't disagree about our LB's this year

Utah: 4 NFL LBs. BYU: 1 NFL LB.

one of the lb's you're counting played a lot at DE also

ManicBlue

He played LB as well, so I'm counting it as an LB. Beyond that, LBs are the

My point is that this sub-thread was about NFL LBs.

Bronson Kaufusi is rated as the 10th best DE prospect next year by cbs sports.

but he plays outside lb.

He's been moved back. Playing him at OLB was crazy.

A lot of NFL OLB's are more like college DEs

While that is partially true, close to half of NFL teams play a 3-4.

It's still a negative when it comes recruiting high school D-Line against Utah.

Lance71

12/19/14 9:54am

Only for DEs. Not for DTs.

lawboy

12/19/14 9:55am

I agree with that. And BYU's DT haven't been that bad. And Utahs best DT

I don't think it is a development issue, I think it is a genetic issue.

Utah runs a completely different scheme/attracts completely different players.
