BIG XII Coug All-American

He was noticeably 2 steps slower this season. 26. Injury prone. Time to focus on other life endeavors and be grateful for his dashing good looks.

This is huge if Taysom wants a shot at the next level.

He's a 26-year-old with 4 season-ending injuries. Let's get real.

His most recent injury should not affect his ability to be an effective runner.

WJCougar

We already know the injury before affected his ability as a runner.

I can tell you he is working out and trying to get ready for the NFL....

Stroshine has trained several BYU guys who are getting ready for the draft

No doubt. He clearly is not the same athlete from three years ago. That guy

This. Taysom from 2013 could have played OLB at NFL level but no longer has

Game Changer

LB? if he gained 30 lbs

Dissenter

Natural build & weight--he's a much better fit there than Van Noy.

mantis mutu

OLB = outside linebacker. Definitely don't need to weigh 250+ to play OLB in

Game Changer

I disagree. He was just about vintage Taysom in the USU game. He was explosive.

Agreed. Would love to be wrong but I don't seem him in the NFL.

Now he considers a position change?

WJCougar

1/13/17 5:07pm

Yep. My thoughts exactly.

Why would the starting QB change positions?

CosmoK

Ok...if that makes you feel better.

WJCougar

Tight end maybe? Safety? he doesn't have the speed.

Chester Copperpot

Strong Safety...fast, strong and already knows how to read the QB

Punter could be an interesting position. He kicked in high school plus with his

If he had enough P/K talent I think we probably would have seen it

I've always felt that Tebow was dumb for not being willing to change positions.

Game Changer

1/13/17 5:24pm

Might not be a waste for him. Maybe he simply didn't want to be in the NFL bad

SingleStrapBackpack

He grew up with only two dreams

Twin Roots

1/13/17 5:33pm

Yep. And since he's not good enough to do either of those things at a high level

Game Changer

1/13/17 5:43pm

He won't be a nothing. He will have a good career in Finance

TNT

Are you thinking of Taysom? They're talking about Tebow if so.

Harrison0Yfan

1/13/17 6:11pm

D'oh!

I made the same mistake

Tim Tebow? I was not aware he had any training in finance. But he's a smart guy

Getting drafted and making it in the nfl are two different things.

Who wouldn't be willing to change positions to make an NFL roster?!

There are a few teams that still want a fullback. The Titans were looking for
