Michigan, Northwestern, and so on are full of kids with good GPAs and SAT/ACT scores. I'd think the honor code would have more to do with it than anything (and living in Utah).

A weird recruiting experience at BYU? I don't believe it, would never happen

SBJ

1/28/15 5:49pm

Let me know if anyone wants to summarize what he says about his recruiting

Polecat

1/28/15 5:57pm

he says byu asked him to walk on and he told byu to shove it.

yahtzee

1/28/15 6:00pm

yahtzee

1/28/15 6:00pm

SLC: the only market where "neutral" hosts push fans to root against LOCAL teams

Actually, Reilly did say some interesting things about BYU recruiting that many

Cougar8Duck

1/28/15 6:38pm

a lot of reasons why we'll never get amazing coaches

yes, it's the combination of many, not just the level of education.

Cougar8Duck

1/28/15 7:14pm

Other than hosting, I don't think he was around highly recruited players

Flyingdolphin

1/28/15 7:16pm

let's not confuse level of education with brightness of the student body...

relic

1/28/15 8:02pm

That's a totally different discussion.

Cougar8Duck

1/28/15 8:27pm

agreed

Thanks - this post makes sense.

So BYU is limited to smart LDS kids? No wonder we're so mediocre.

My favorite Reilly quote: now that we are in the PAC-12 students are getting

i missed that. hilarious.

Wait, doesn't the post right above this one claim BYU is too difficult

Lance71

IMO, he makes a lot of valid points...

So it goes...

I love how he(and many others) discount Bronco's coaching job with helping Ziggy

What are you smoking?

GA_Coug

1/28/15 10:49pm

you missed the point I guess. I was referring to PLAYER DEVELOPMENT

palangi

1/28/15 11:03pm

palangi, you couldn't have spelled it out any clearer. let's hope he gets it

1/28/15 11:43pm

I suppose if they were smoking the same stuff

GA_Coug

1/29/15 4:32am

please reread

palangi

1/29/15 7:37am

he just doesn't have the ability to comprehend palangi

It's probably not ability - It's desire

PolarisPrime

1/29/15 11:40am

I would like to think I can be objective but will admit Bronco's time has come

GA_Coug

1/29/15 6:28pm

it's a big risk imo, but I would be ok with a change too

palangi

1/29/15 8:15pm

You "admit" Broncos time has come?

PolarisPrime

1/29/15 11:30pm

Thanks

Any time.

Listening to those excerpts of the Buck interview

Freddie Cougar

Buck has been grinding an axe against Bronco

PolarisPrime

Explains why so many yewts deliver pizzas.

Tidwell told him he wasn't good enough to play at BYU.
