Quick check on ESPN

shows that none of the players from the listed schools were even given a recruiting ranking out of High School. Some I couldn't find, but the ones I did all had NR.

A couple of posts along with something in Cougar Sportsline have opened my eyes

Did those schools have the #5 overall pick in 2013 and #40 overall pick in 2014?

Wyoming has had 4 picks in the last 5 years.

Random Walk

5/6/15 5:31pm

Eastern Washington 3 picks in the last 5 years.

Random Walk

5/6/15 5:32pm

The PAC12 sure missed on those guys.

2 for Central Arkansas and William & Mary

Anomalies happen all the time.

Sure, except for BYU...

What does a 2 year break from football do to the expected number of picks?

SCcoug

5/6/15 6:00pm

I'd love to see someone do some analysis on this.

Random Walk

5/6/15 6:02pm

I'd imagine it approaches BYU track record since BYU dominates RM D1 players.

SCcoug

5/6/15 6:07pm

You need to include RMs from other schools to have a valid comparison.

Random Walk

5/6/15 6:10pm

Yes but if 70% of RMs play at BYU the overall numbers would be close to BYU's.

SCcoug

5/6/15 6:17pm

We could ask about RMs on average, but I think it's

Random Walk

5/6/15 6:18pm

not necessarily. there are variables, like player development. byu's average

Southpaw102

5/6/15 7:55pm

so no picks 3 of 5 years is an anamoly?

Define an anomaly as it relates to BYU's NFL draft history.

Is Wyoming a better college football team than BYU?

TrueAndBlue

5/6/15 5:41pm

The last time BYU played Wyoming it was a tough one:

Random Walk

5/6/15 5:43pm

So they are better?

TrueAndBlue

5/6/15 5:50pm

BYU won, right?

Random Walk

5/6/15 5:59pm

ha,ha. You're really trying to prove that Wyoming is better?

SUAVO

5/6/15 5:54pm

It wasn't a relevant question. So, I provided an irrelevant answer.

Random Walk

5/6/15 5:59pm

Your point about Wyoming is meaningless. Who cares how many draft picks Wyoming

TrueAndBlue

5/6/15 6:09pm

You should care that BYU isn't meeting expectations. It's a perception problem.

Random Walk

5/6/15 6:13pm

Conjecture about Bolles. Why hasn't Wyoming's draft picks made them a better

TrueAndBlue

5/6/15 6:15pm

Collective talent and coaching? Lack of facilities?

Random Walk

5/6/15 6:16pm

it means they are good at player development, but they prob don't get the

BarraCouga

Are you sure it's a coaching issue ?

ManicBlue

5/6/15 7:21pm

Who were those players at the small schools?

Brigham

5/6/15 7:33pm

That isn't the point at all. The point is those schools DON'T get recruits yet

Southpaw102

5/6/15 8:01pm

Do they really develop them? Or are they late bloomers or slip through the crack

BarraCouga

5/6/15 8:36pm

that may be true in some cases. but you are ignoring the other side of this

Southpaw102

5/6/15 8:46pm

It's been explained ad nauseum.

BarraCouga

5/6/15 9:02pm

Sounds like the excuse machine is in full force.

you make some good points

There may also be some players who didn't make the NCAA requirements
