inflated. the 4th 4-star is seriously wavering and people think he might end up at arizona state.

P5 vs g5. It's an uphill battle.

Anyone of these guys would be outstanding! I realize I'm being Capt Obvious here

I'll chime in here and concur that there are big names to come

Capt Obvious

Ed Lamb is pretty good at finding 2* recruits and putting them in the NFL

I would consider the following breakdown a good goal for this staff:

Exactly right

hammergm

Would love to see more quality depth on both sides of the line and DBs

BYUgoslav

1/19/17 3:11pm

Exactly. I already like the numbers because of how many 3* we have

Stars are for subscriptions

You can't deny that Utah's overall talent has improved with their star ratings

CaliWG

1/19/17 2:31pm

True, it has made a difference in depth

Solomon Levi

1/19/17 2:55pm

Still...

BYUgoslav

1/19/17 2:35pm

Agree

Solomon Levi

1/19/17 2:51pm

Well like the first reply said, how about we at least wait 2 more weeks.

The star system of course isn't perfect but the rate at which players succeed

BigBrotherUte

1/19/17 2:54pm

I agree. Although someone does have to be first to offer.

Utah has always excelled in the JC transfer game.

FrozenCoug

1/19/17 5:42pm

They like others have struck out with a bunch

BYU '80

1/19/17 6:47pm

JC DBs quite often turn out. You're right, it can't be considered a slam

southernfriedcougar

1/19/17 5:50pm

Definitely inflated

BYU '80

1/19/17 6:48pm

Not really. You're forgetting about guys like Booker, Clay, Butler-Byrd, Carter,

BigBrotherUte

1/19/17 7:09pm

Most of those guys weren't good in their first year

BYU '80

1/19/17 10:28pm

I listed those guys cuz they were good in their first year. Utah has had 2 to 4

BigBrotherUte

1/19/17 10:56pm

Not sure Butler Byrd did anything really his first year

BYU '80

1/20/17 6:42am

He was injured I think

Backcountry

Butler-Byrd started at corner, had a few ints, at least 1 kickoff td, and a

I would have to look up all of the jcs to see ratings.

BYU '80

1/20/17 5:14pm

I don't think guys turning out is an exception.

southernfriedcougar

1/19/17 7:24pm
