I really don't think BYU missed on Katoa. He never had interest from the start and we are pretty deep at RB. I think it was best for both.

As soon as Tuiaki left Utah for OSU, you knew Pini would follow him.

Empey is NOT coming to BYU. He decided quite some time ago that he wasn't.

I've spoken to both and know parents

I hear this so often. Why does BYU show interest so late? How could it hurt to

Pride. BYU wants recruits to adore them, they don't want to appear to adore

You don't sign with a school that fired your dad

This had nothing to do with it.

Katoa was never really interested in BYU

Actually it was Utah St

1/25/15 10:26pm

LOL....he didn't even have a Utah offer.

"Deciding football wasn't for him" is one way to put it.

BYU should go after Nate Heaps, offer him preferred walk-on at least.

Sad day when BYU cannot even get the local recruits from AF High....

"Couldn't" get him is a little misleading. BYU didn't even offer him

TrueAndBlue

I understand why BYU did not offer Kotoa.

He isn't a FB, he is a RB. With that being said, I don't believe he will do

Duke Silver

Not sure where you came up with him being a FB

southernfriedcougar

1/26/15 11:29am

I don't think we missed. We had higher priorities.

southernfriedcougar

1/26/15 11:26am

The highest priority straight from Martzen's mouth is OL

RockyBalboa

No, I mean higher priorities at RB.
