We don't even look G5 in this

Should it be considered when looking at these kinds of things to review

BYUFam1

2/12/16 7:44am

Yeah in fairness I'd be curious how many seniors each team had.

2/12/16 7:56am

It won't offer a full answer just to have the numbers because "contribution" is

another thing to consider this isn't really an anomaly for BYU in the Bronco era

2/12/16 11:32am

A testament to Bronco's recruiting prowess

Singcat

I believe it's a reflection of a young team + RMs. How many of these invitees

RM's from colleges of Utah invited to the combine: Utah 1, SUU 1, BYU 1, USU 0.

And we still won games....I'm not even made. I'm impressed with Bronco

jrifkin48

I'm glad he focused on the bigger picture but he should have more guys worth a look.

SouthernBlueBlood

Isn't that kind of like being proud of a toddler who craps himself, but cleans

No, it means bronco was a great coach, terrible recruiter.

idacoug

So the analogy does work.

srey

2/12/16 7:55am

Doesn't mean he's a terrible recruiter. Guys can be all-star in college but not

viper

I agree with both Singcat and jrifkin48. It's an indictment of Bronco's

NFL output doesn't matter in recruiting, P5 status does.

ChinoCoug

SUU seems to be doing okay

SouthernBlueBlood

2/12/16 7:59am

It does matter in recruiting when you have HS kids with NFL aspirations and you're actively & repeatedly bagging on the

Where did I come from, why am I here, where am I going?

Bonoman

They both matter and only one (to a certain measure) is in BYU's control right

Wedgetail

2/12/16 8:16am

Empirics say otherwise.

ChinoCoug

2/12/16 8:33am

I wouldnt care so much about NFL output if it didnt seem to have an effect on recruiting, and also if we at least won

Bright side: We have SUU's coaches now, suckers!

ChinoCoug

Just look at it as bottoming out, this will change with Sitake

HuskerCoug

2/12/16 8:10am

how does Mathews and Blackmon get overlooked for players at SUU?

Pretorian

2/12/16 8:37am

It's that P5 status that SUU has.

I bet they never talk about how good they are at putting kids into The League,

You obviously don;t know football

John Beck and Max Hall, it wasn't that long ago

BYU had 2 QB's in the NFL as recently as 2011

Backcountry

Did you really just say BYU was better than Utah in the bowl game?

Backcountry

2/12/16 11:53am

wow... no I did not... I wrote it... If you missed it just read it again...

Bless your little heart

Pretorian

Tell me, how is a winner determined in football?

Backcountry

About what I expected

wilsdad

2/12/16 8:48am

I honestly don't care. I care about 9-4. More than 1 guy will get an NFL chance.

Has nothing to do with it. This is 10% on the "RM factor", 90% on the old coach
