in college is risky. We'll see how long his impact is. Kudos to utah if he can hold up. Kind of high risk/high reward right now.

What about the other one where he admitted to muffing the recruitment.

southernfriedcougar

10/5/15 12:42pm

Big deal. The kid wanted Utah. Maybe because BYU didn't recruit him hard enough.

I don't know why people continue to be so butt-hurt about this

Imagine if he had a game with 84yd TD and game winning TD with 0:45 left

We can all complain and moan ad nauseam.

It is a bigger deal because it's not just one player.

Wait. I thought "the line" was supposed to be too many white Utah county kids

I don't care much about Covey and never did. Go back and look if you want.

southernfriedcougar

Yeah, not a huge loss imho. He's good, but he'll never be one

Agree, but not the point.

It's about the Utah media being complete swear words.

Bluedomination

10/5/15 1:03pm

So which Utah Co kid are you whining about BYU not recruiting now ?

ManicBlue

10/5/15 1:14pm

Butt out if you don't have a clue. I didn't say Utah county either.

wow ... didn't realize you were having a private conversation on a public board

ManicBlue

Nope, just not going to bother to include you.

southernfriedcougar

10/5/15 1:31pm

Have never had you on ignore but that's fine ... guess you prefer to use

ManicBlue

10/5/15 1:34pm

So just because you're not included you're going to be a baby? Go right ahead.

I'm the baby for asking a question that you refuse to answer ? hahaha

Objective opinion. Manic isn't the one being a baby.
