High school doesn't mean they'll be great in college, and other way around. We could get recruits that weren't highly thought of who come and have amazing careers here, and the other way around.

Lipstick on a pig. Covey is merely a symptom of a larger problem. BYU is losing

Losing Covey was not a big deal but it shows an interesting trend when looking

BYU leads Utah H2H in the state where both offered.

I don't care about Utah. I am talking about owning our state in recruiting

BYUheaven

You mean the state where BYU is no longer confined to the state?

BarraCouga

We will see. Like I said I could care less about Covey. We just need to start

Bronco's won an average of 9 games a season.

Barracouga shows patience. Way to go. Some complain as if BYU went 5-7 for two

I would agree with you if those players were a significant upgrade over local

Cougarcoisa

Tell you what. Pick the non-LDS, out of Utah kid on the team...

There's no trend.

Would've liked to have had him. Not a make or break, but he's gonna be fun to

He reminds me a lot of Tim Dwight (who was 5'8" by the way)

Great post, solid take, I think the problem is not who we go after . . .

Cougarcoisa

1/31/15 9:37am

There is no such thing as a slam dunk and it's pompous to think there should be.

BarraCouga

1/31/15 9:43am

Not pompous, it's math

Cougarcoisa

1/31/15 10:00am

If they were truly convinced about Covey, they would have offered sooner.

BarraCouga

1/31/15 10:07am

You don't get it

Cougarcoisa

1/31/15 10:32am

I didn't say they did.

BarraCouga

1/31/15 11:01am

I would disagree with your post BYU

I agree more speed at Utah making a difference. Not much of it from Utah HS

How do you know Covey won't play in the NFL?

Of course the larger receivers have more yards, look at first downs.

BYU fans need to worry about who we got, not who we dont got

The issue is that BYU wanted him, he is LDS, and he picked Utah over BYU. When

DoseOfReality

The bigger issue imo is that by all accounts he was a BYU fan growing up and

cougaman

1/31/15 12:07pm

I doubt he picked Utah because of NFL aspirations.

1/31/15 12:45pm

Utah has been getting the Covey-type of kids all along. I don't think it means

dultso

1/31/15 1:13pm

I doubt a smurf like Covey is NFL material, whether he attends BYU or Utah

Coogar2

1/31/15 3:15pm

I think he's a similiar talent to that of Reno Mahe. He won't touch the ball 15

I don't think the hand wringing is about losing Covey

It hasn't become ridiculous because it was a topic for about 1 day and change.
