The Dangler Walk-on

Let's hope

Byu had a few nice surprises last year but typically byu strikes out with most kids that wait until February and have lots of good offers. Maybe sitake can turn that trend around and keep us in the running up until the final days of signing periods with these kids

Our 2017 recruiting looks terrible early on.

Just let TNT know when it is acceptable to panic

TNT

Start panicking now

9/25/16 11:19am

As soon as TNT tells everyone why or how he thinks panicking will help

McChesney is undervalued imo. But yes that is not a highly regarded list.

I have been tempted to do this every time we are assured that there's going to

2018 looks pretty good so far though. 8 recruits. 6 with 3 stars early on, and

Look how many flips and near flips they managed in just a few weeks.

Not sure about Alden Tofa

9/25/16 6:07pm

Words from his mouth are pretty telling

southernfriedcougar

You can't say something like that without including a link or a quote.

Thanks. Oregon not looking good this year, and they want to fire their HC right

cougaman

Glad to hear that. Words are better

A local kid on a visit with other recruits to a U of U home game.

southernfriedcougar

9/25/16 8:28pm

He wasn't posing for a pic. He was on the field, excited, flashing the U ...

9/25/16 9:21pm

All I said was that he was with other recruits on a visit to THEIR place.

southernfriedcougar

9/25/16 9:32pm

I'm agreeing with you, recruits do weird stuff

9/25/16 10:40pm

Also something to consider, don't a lot of the really good recruits tend to wait

Yes, and it's lame. But what makes you say they're not in play for Katoa?

southernfriedcougar

9/25/16 9:01pm

which Katoa, the RB that signed with Oregon state out of AF?

pegushin

9/26/16 5:24am

2017. Tayler Katoa. 4 star athlete (LB)

southernfriedcougar

9/26/16 9:21am

ok thanks, if we were talking the RB I know he would like to possibly transfer

Never trust star rankings! Star fruad is a real thing

Some are overrated and some are underrated, but it's not wrong.

Pimpin4Paradise

9/25/16 12:46pm

The better programs have the better starred recruits IN GENERAL. So yes....

JmThms

9/25/16 2:32pm

Some concerns there

The Dangler

9/25/16 1:28pm

I'll be honest - I think the Langi offer might be due

Anyone good coming home from a mission?

Some promising Dline from last years class as well, that will be here in 2018.

Isn't it more common these days for the big time recruits to wait until later in the recruiting cycle? Isn't lot like

HarlemCoug

9/25/16 1:42pm

Stock up on Hanshaw, Buchanan, Bywater, Baker, and McChesney. All could gain a

9/25/16 2:02pm

As high as 35! That is depressing.

9/25/16 4:38pm

Not in year 1. Huge jump. Ill take it.

Turnpike Lane

9/25/16 5:15pm

Are you kidding? You do not follow BYU recruiting closely. 35 would be amazing for us

9/25/16 5:52pm

Purely playing devils advocate here. If we recruit consistently at the 60-80

Chicago Cougar fan

9/25/16 5:56pm

It means the recruiting rankings do not accurately grade the typical BYU recruit

9/25/16 6:10pm

Especially with as many early recruits as BYU has had over the years.

cougaman

9/25/16 6:22pm

And that's why it's depressing.

9/25/16 6:00pm

In what world is that depressing?

southernfriedcougar

9/25/16 6:06pm

There are a few programs like BYU in the 60-80 range that consistent overperform

9/25/16 9:27pm

I guess another thing I didn't think about is highly ranked recruits will come

Chicago Cougar fan

9/25/16 9:30pm

Baker isn't playing this year, injured

Heinz57

9/25/16 7:02pm

So far, status quo, all BM-type recruits.

ag4cougs

9/25/16 4:37pm

Isn't it true a lot of top re recruites commit later in the process?

ZooBlue

9/25/16 5:34pm

It does seem this way. Many like to do the stupid hat "ceremony" and make

Duke Silver

9/25/16 9:51pm

Yes, but BYU almost never gets hat ceremony type kids

9/25/16 9:58pm

Correct, but there's still plenty 3 and 4 star kids who wait til after doing all

Duke Silver

9/25/16 10:06pm

Makes sense...

ZooBlue

9/26/16 10:07am

Who have we missed on?

9/25/16 7:20pm

Higher rated recruits generally do not commit early...

wcj99

9/25/16 9:53pm

I've made a list but haven't posted it publically yet. Nearly 1/3 of the kids

9/25/16 10:02pm

Also I hate comparing us to Utah....

CoachSpeak

9/25/16 8:46pm

Crap, with that kind of recruiting we'll start 1-3....

Until yewtah starts losing in the pac, we will play second fiddle and wont turn the tide.

This time around everyone might be waiting on B12 news.

9/25/16 10:07pm

I like that they are at least trying to improve the TE position

CougarsFanSince80s

9/25/16 11:08pm

Alls you need is a 4 star in there and it'll pretty much mirror a typical Mendenhall class...

ocmyhome

9/25/16 11:17pm

In terms of stars, maybe--but not in terms of parity.

mantis mutu

9/26/16 1:39am

3 to consider: Hanshaw will be a star as either a TE or DE. Great athlete there.
