Chris Fowler offers his opinion on missions and BYU
Sorry, I'm having trouble linking the actual page. Here is my tweet from today and Fowler's response:

"@cbfowler you are the most reasonable analyst on ESPN. Help your colleagues understand that BYU players missions are not an advantage at all"

"@Jake12Jensen agree NOT often an advantage -- but CAN help some guys post mission when they are 23/24 yrs old. Have to acknowledge that."

FWIW, I have had several very reasonable and positive back and forths with Fowler on Twitter. He is knowledgeable, polite, and pretty positive about BYU. He's probably my favorite ESPN analyst. Super talented guy as well. He basically wrote the entire script for every episode of College Gameday for over a decade. I'm sad he's not on there anymore (though I really like Rece as well)

Please don't be an idiot and tweet at him because he said every once in a while missions are an advantage. I completely agree with his point. It's NOT often an advantage. Only every once in a while. I'd like to think he feels positively about BYU fans. Don't ruin it.
