I get why he's choosing BYU now. Did he just not like the coaching staff at the time or was it a Pac 12 thing?

Awesome news for our O-line group! Not that I don't believe you, but can I see

Just about to take off...

Here it is

And clear photographic evidence of how beneficial a two year mission is to the physical development of BYU athletes!

No touching

Thanks for the pic Steve. He is huge.

I thought he would have been taller ... and in a missionary suit

But they didn't want him anyway.

Because of his 4.5 40 time?

Nice, offers from Washington, Oregon St, Boise St

Dude. Leave the poor kid alone. He only has one shot at the "What they're saying

Well played, sir.

This is awesome. Is he a tackle or guard?

NacoCoug

5/23/17 5:12am

My personal hope is that he takes over after tejan at center

cougarmanguy

5/23/17 6:19am

He said he'd play at Guard or Center

Bronco

5/23/17 7:03am

Well, bronco didn't retain his dad as coach

cougarmanguy

5/23/17 7:04am

I have doubts that is the real reason

Seasider

5/23/17 7:43am

It's all a part it. One reason out of a few.

That sig pic is dope!

Ktar

False. Crowton hired Grimes in 2004 who Bronco retained in 2005.

5/23/17 2:21pm

Empey is better

cougarmanguy

5/23/17 2:36pm

OK.

gmj81

5/23/17 2:39pm

I think he is. Grimes was very good but empey has as good of a track record

cougarmanguy

5/23/17 3:03pm

Grimes has at times been the highest paid OL coach in NCAA

gmj81

5/23/17 3:13pm

OK, and that's great. I just strongly disagree

cougarmanguy

5/23/17 3:21pm

I like Empey way more than any O-Line coach we've had since Grimes

Lance71

5/23/17 6:13pm

Might want to re-read what he wrote so it makes sense.

Lip Gallagher

5/23/17 2:40pm

I'm not saying they should have been happy about it.

gmj81

5/23/17 2:53pm

So what are we arguing about

cougarmanguy

5/23/17 3:05pm

Unless he was ready to be an OC/WR coach, there wasn't a spot on the staff

gmj81

5/23/17 3:16pm

Of course he was retained in his position

cougarmanguy

5/23/17 3:20pm

Anae had experience with OL and TE, not WR. Grimes was already OL and a good one

gmj81

5/23/17 3:26pm

I think that we are still talking around each other

cougarmanguy

5/23/17 3:39pm

Um, Anae did not have TE experience.

Lip Gallagher

5/23/17 3:42pm

And it was mostly just to fill a position of need

cougarmanguy

5/23/17 3:45pm

I don't know about easily

gmj81

5/23/17 4:03pm

Again, just talking around each other here

cougarmanguy

5/23/17 4:08pm

So what was "false." You've kinda taken this in a whole other direction.

Lip Gallagher

5/23/17 3:20pm

He claims he couldn't be retained because new coaches were brought in

cougarmanguy

5/23/17 3:22pm

now that they lost 4 OL's to the NFL

Poor Whit was waiting with a cake at SLC airport in his bright yellow Nikes

the Amsterdam-SLC direct flight is a great one

That's my favorite flight for getting home from Europe.

Now you've done it. Revealing where to be in the airport to Whitt.
