I think Stanford and Michigan both offer the whole package.

Taysom legitimately has a chance to compete for a NC at both of those programs and will get an elite education in the process. UVA offers a great education, some familiarity with coaches, and the likelihood of going 6-6 or worse. To me, it just doesn't seem like a real option. If I'm him, I'm jumping to Stanford if they will take me, and then Michigan second choice.

He actually named Taysom Hill? That would be a violation wouldn't it?

Depends on context. If he talked about him as a former player he coached, then no.

2/12/16 1:33pm

This is correct

Not in terms of recruiting

If I remember right, he looked over at the AD and asked something like,

2/12/16 1:38pm

that's really weird. he discussed Taysom by name multiple times?

2/12/16 1:31pm

Give Taysom some credit. If leaves BYU it won't be to hang out with Bronco

Also, I'm sure their QB is loving getting publicly crapped on by Bronco

Iva has a good school and already knowing coaches is a big deal if you only have

Other than an offense he already knows and won't have to learn only in spring

Education-wise, UVA would be very attractive, actually.

There are multiple realistic destinations that offer much more.

On top of quality football? Besides Stanford, there's not too many that clearly

I could agree there. Okorn makes Michigan a tough choice, though, I'd think.

Agreed

You would think Michigan or Stanford would be much better options

Does Taysom really want to run the read option at Virginia, or be tutored by

Backcountry

2/12/16 1:52pm

I've gotten these vibes too. But I think it may just be Bronco's wishful thinkin

mantis mutu

2/12/16 1:44pm

Hope you're right

antiyewt

2/12/16 1:50pm

It is stupid, I agree. But it seems well within Bronco's tendencies to me.

mantis mutu

2/12/16 1:54pm

I don't think Bronco is being any more optimistic about Taysom than Sitake was

He's sure being a lot more loud & explicit about it.

2/12/16 1:56pm

I'm confident Taysom will stay... In fact, I'm sure he will.

Thought this same thing but I'm not too confident in Bronco understanding the bad PR it would create.
