The Johnson brothers were pretty highly recruited. Stillman White.

I remember the younger Johnson being a prized recruit but not the older

Jeff Johnsen was Utah's first repeat winner of the Mr. Basketball award.

Yep - his signing with the yewts was a significant turning point in the rivalry.

The Johnsen brothers both grew up BYU fans

So false. The Johnsen boys, father, cousins, pen pals...always were Utes. Other

Britton may have signed with BYU if Burgess had gone to BYU.

So true.

That's not what Britton told me. He said that they grew up BYU fans

Stillman White was not that prized. Just a late addition to fill a spot at UNC.

RE: Casey Jacobsen ... Did he ever consider BYU?

Supposedly. Cleve recruited him pretty hard before he chose Stanford.

Neither were active members. Nominal "Mormons" don't count, IMO.

Is Chambers even LDS?

PolarisPrime

Some of his family is. Grew up in the closet in Utah. That's tough.

30 years ago it sure was. I moved here as a BYU Frosh 25 years ago

I moved here 25 years ago too and I still feel the same.

Mark Pope. Nick Robinson went to Stanford and played a lot, was an RM

Julius Barnes (non-RM) & Nick Robinson both. Stanford was a wrench in the engine

Mantis Mutu

4/20/15 9:18pm

Was Nick Robinson highly-recruited? I believe Cleveland chose Bobik over him.

boiseman92

4/20/15 9:20pm

I think you're right. He was one of the biggest recruits outa MO his Sr year.
