The CB locals are starting to get restless about BYU football's recruiting...

Bottom line, the higher the stars the higher success rate in both college and

BYU has been landing a few 4 star recruits most years. The problem is that

I agree with you

Seems like the kids that go to USC however

problem is you're losing these kids to Stanford, USC, ND. Even if BYU
Bostonblue

If most of the LDS kids came to BYU, it would be perrenial top 20 too
g$
6/29/16 4:35pm
what you're advocating for is not likely IMO. Think of it this way,
Bostonblue
6/29/16 5:26pm
to be blunt, that is loser mentality
g$
6/29/16 5:39pm
recruiting has changed so much since the 80s when Lavell was doing it. And no
Bostonblue
6/29/16 5:46pm
How many two or three star players didn't pan out or never saw the field?
JOPE
6/29/16 2:24pm
the point is we need more depth. You build that from the bottom and
Bostonblue
6/29/16 4:22pm
Not true. We need coaches tht are good evaluators & developers of talent, though
mantis mutu
6/29/16 3:51pm
100% agree. Not all 4\5* guys turn out and many 2* guys become AA/All Pro
BYUHgrad

You only have 25 so each one counts
I'mBatman
6/29/16 2:08pm
I'm pretty sure no one will care if they win 10 games consistently
TheWarden
6/29/16 2:11pm
10 wins with our future schedules would be historically impressive.
Bostonblue
6/29/16 2:15pm
Which ones are you nervous about? Which ones do you think will be good?
YIsForBrigham
6/29/16 2:16pm
Baker, Lewis, Hanneman, and willis. I think they all have potential to be good.
TheWarden
6/29/16 2:25pm
Lewis had some of the best Sparq numbers in the country IIRC
ayfan
6/29/16 2:50pm
Not saying they won't be good, just they're the type byu has always gotten
TheWarden
6/29/16 3:25pm
That's great but why don't they have other offers?
I'mBatman
6/29/16 4:02pm
Guys like Lewis and Hanneman are local kids who BYU has TONS of connections with
ayfan
6/29/16 4:10pm
I'm okay with those two

Well so you know,

Would you rather BYU offer guys early that commit and then don't get other
cougaman
6/29/16 11:55pm
If you're really good programs will still offer no matter what.
TheWarden
6/30/16 8:26am
Yeah, and a lot of them end up leaving for the bigger programs. Coaches are

To be fair, the expectation was that there would be improved recruiting
g$

I think focusing on the top end is the wrong way to view things.
Bostonblue
6/29/16 2:19pm
And yet KVN singlehandedly won the Poinsettia bowl against SDSU a few years back
stoils
6/29/16 2:22pm
If landing 3 4 stars is the top end, that is scary
JOPE
6/29/16 2:22pm
Why? Other programs do.
southernfriedcougar
6/29/16 2:29pm
No they don't

JOPE

TCU doesn't do that every year FYI.
southernfriedcougar
6/29/16 3:02pm
Yes, but they are consistently in the top 30
JOPE
6/29/16 3:09pm
They're not consistently up there.

Exactly what I thought. Can't read AND nothing to say.
southernfriedcougar

lol @ you putting the exact same 247 rankings in there

So what exactly are you laughing at as it relates to his comment?
southernfriedcougar
6/29/16 5:31pm
Hmmm,

The amount of other offers is a good way to evaluate ut

Exactly right.

USC will start 4 LDS players next year

Just because someone grew up LDS doesn't mean they have any intention
molodyets
6/29/16 3:13pm
Absolutely true. But these kids are also ground zero of where BYU can improve

Depth only matters...
CoachSpeak
6/29/16 5:14pm
Depth is huge on defense and special teams.
TheWarden
6/29/16 10:02pm
Almost the craziest thing I've heard on this thread.
southernfriedcougar
6/30/16 7:06am
What's "crazy" about it?
CoachSpeak

Suggesting any form of a "depth ONLY matters when..."

I really don't care what anyone is saying about recruiting at this point.

This post is dead on. Especially about the part about BYU's lack of offering

The staff is in a hard spot right now with recruiting.

Like I've said before, this coaching staff has Harbaugh-like expectations.

A new coaching staff isn't enough. Players will want to see how BYU football

Players will want to see results first. Sitake has no track record.

I thought Sitake was suppose to be this great recruiter.

Chaulk it up to ignorance. They likely don't realize kids sign after their Jr yr

Agreed. Lamb put more of these players in the draft last year than Kyle put 4-5
