The only ones who say they are a realist are the ones that are pessimists.

NICE!!!!!!! Things are looking up in Provo!!!

HarlemCoug

Holy! I always assumed that was a pipe dream.

Nice to have a commit with a Mad Max sounding name

For the record, this is me acknowledging that nashty can be self deprecating.

And Zadock Dinklemann hands off to Squally Canada

With a great block from Jaterius Gulley (if he ever comes back)

Almost to Key & Peele East West intros level- Dan Smith no longer

byujag

5/22/17 1:38pm

That was my wife's response when I told her about the new commit

Lalau

5/22/17 2:55pm

And if you thought "Zadock" went outa style in the Bible Belt

mantis mutu

5/22/17 12:31pm

Only if he wins the Heisman or a NC or something lol

jcase16byu

5/22/17 12:35pm

3 Star correct?

Gerald-DeGroot

5/22/17 12:38pm

If he was a 4*/5* before he committed then yes he is now 3*.

rebelCoug

5/22/17 12:54pm

McKee vs Dinkelman could be the best QB battle in several decades in Provo

Sir_Ten

Heaps v Nelson

DK-

5/22/17 12:42pm

Give 'em a break. I wish it would have turned out differently, but in the end, Riley played his guts out for BYU

Gentleman Stan

I agree, both seem like good dudes

Things would be different if Nelson had hit Hoffman @ ND. Very different.

Ash

5/22/17 2:20pm

I would have taken it if the ball would have even made contact with him

OGSuperfan

5/22/17 2:35pm

I feel like Taysom's freak athleticism made many fans look back differently onRN

22jrob22

5/22/17 4:41pm

Is Heaps an advocate of BYU? Or is it more he doesn't actively throw BYU under the bus..? Agree with your comment

ocmyhome

5/22/17 6:25pm

I have a feeling that's not really going to be the case

Indy Coug

5/22/17 12:43pm

May have NFL potential at Tight End. Not sure about QB, but surprise me.

RealityCheck

5/23/17 8:21am

And mostly unnecessary one's mission bound one isn't. Best case scenario

Kajdin

5/22/17 12:43pm

McKee is mission first. Dinkleman is not. So they will stagger.

Turnpike Lane

5/22/17 12:43pm

Is Jaren Hall still in the mix? Or will there be a position change?

Sir_Ten

5/22/17 12:47pm

Guess we'll see post mission, but

Turnpike Lane

5/22/17 12:53pm

I almost wonder if he'll transfer, given the coaching change and the fact that

dilbert

5/22/17 12:59pm

He signed with Sitake?

BrutustheBrash

5/22/17 1:12pm

Did he? I thought he would have already been out on his mission by the time

dilbert

5/22/17 2:02pm

Yeah, he was the same class as Warner and Tanielu

BrutustheBrash

5/22/17 2:10pm

Hall was tutored by Ty at QB Elite.

Cougar Insider

5/22/17 1:10pm

imo, hall is too good not to be in the mix. he seems to be overlooked on CB

smokymountainrain

5/22/17 12:55pm

His arm strength will keep him in the mix, his legs are a bonus

5/22/17 1:07pm

should have 2 years separation, so probably not

5/22/17 12:43pm

Engemann vs. Berry

WDaddy

5/22/17 12:49pm

Munns vs Lark. 2 4* monsters

Backcountry

5/22/17 1:21pm

This botch is one of the few I'd give to the Bronco haters

Pretorian

ya but we wont get McKee

ZADOK = righteousness. Root word for Melchizedek and Sadducee.

ChinoCoug

King David's high priest, no?

mantis mutu

5/22/17 1:15pm

King David's priest

ChinoCoug

5/22/17 1:29pm

Both. He was the first High Priest when Solomon's temple was opened.

BamaCoug

5/22/17 1:58pm

Seems like a good kid.

qom

5/22/17 12:50pm

Any moment now Utah will announce they offered him

Seasider

5/22/17 12:50pm

Non committal with no intent though.

monkeycowboy

5/22/17 12:52pm

That goes w/o saying.

SoValleyCOUG

5/22/17 12:53pm

Like LSU's offer

BlueFrog

5/22/17 1:05pm

Nah, KWhitt is scared of Ty

Y05

5/22/17 1:13pm

What happened with him and LSU? Doesn't seem like a lot of offers.

mokelembembe

5/22/17 12:58pm

Thanks!

Harrison0Yfan

5/22/17 1:03pm

He would have decommitted anyway. Both Miles and Cameron left

Lip Gallagher

5/22/17 1:14pm

I think his best asset is his HS Coach

AustinCougar

5/22/17 1:58pm

From what I've read, he committed as a freshman, then LSU just kind of thought everything was done

byukirty

5/22/17 12:58pm

Thanks for the info

Harrison0Yfan

5/22/17 1:03pm

I thought LSU pulled the offer when their coaching staff changed. He's received

jreid191

5/22/17 1:19pm

Texas offered as well the summer before his Soph season.

NewMexiCoug

5/22/17 3:36pm

That just feels very right. Good things in Provo!

Squire

5/22/17 1:01pm

Good news!

Byu_1988

5/22/17 1:06pm

McKee will essentially be '20 class due to mission

SingleStrapBackpack

5/22/17 1:36pm

I see

Byu_1988

5/22/17 2:41pm

We will also have Jaren Hall unless he switches positions

SingleStrapBackpack

5/22/17 9:27pm

I'm happy for his commitment, but this feels similar to Keaton Torre's situation

AFcoug7

5/22/17 1:08pm

Difference here

BrutustheBrash

5/22/17 1:15pm

He got hurt and sat a year out. Plus

Lip Gallagher

5/22/17 1:21pm

I hope the best for the kid. But everyone seems really excited

Bostonblue

5/22/17 1:24pm

Don't worry, you're not bursting anything for anyone who actually

Lip Gallagher

5/22/17 1:29pm

Now that our self appointed resident recruiting expert has chimed in I suddenly

Backcountry

5/22/17 1:37pm

I mean, I wouldn't expect anything less from our chief resident pessimist

Classic pessimist justification...

BYUHgrad

Thanks for your opinion

Backcountry

5/23/17 9:11am

You're welcome...but to clarify, it was a statement.

BYUHgrad

5/23/17 11:42am

Hey. Scouts, ESPN, and rivals don't know anything. Random CB'rs know way more.

Gerald-DeGroot

5/22/17 2:00pm

Yeah I think most people think that since he was

jensen46

5/22/17 1:33pm

He got hurt during track season a few years ago and missed his soph season.

NewMexiCoug

5/22/17 3:27pm

since you seem to know so much - please tell us about him. Thoughts on how he looks off defenders, reads defenses, leads

HarlemCoug

5/22/17 1:34pm

Go compare McKee's film to Dinkelman's and then return and report.

Bostonblue

5/22/17 1:36pm

lol McKee is one of the top recruits in the whole nation.

Lip Gallagher

5/22/17 1:41pm

Nope. But do you think he's better than Jaren Hall? How about Wilstead?

Bostonblue

5/22/17 1:48pm

Good gravy. At least pay attention before you spew this stuff.

Lip Gallagher

5/22/17 1:52pm

haha. Okay, bud. ps - unless McKee is going on a 4 year mission,

Bostonblue

5/22/17 1:58pm

Yeah, now maybe go back and learn about this offense.

Lip Gallagher

5/22/17 2:03pm

It's It's not our job to evaluate. It's d1 coaches. And none of them believe

Backcountry

5/22/17 1:39pm

I have no problem offering "hidden gems." But I think this situation is

Bostonblue

5/22/17 1:51pm

He was injured during the summer and 1st half of his Jr year, he couldn't camp

5/22/17 2:05pm

why do so many posters feel the need to personally attack anyone who questions

Bostonblue

5/22/17 2:12pm

I stand by what I said. If a kid has talent the offers come

Backcountry

5/22/17 2:15pm

"No-one-else-wanted" Ty Detmer. An appropriate title for Mr Heisman.

mantis mutu

5/22/17 3:01pm

We have to give him the benefit of the doubt now I guess.

Backcountry

Abe Froman

5/22/17 3:04pm

Of course. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt. Doesn't mean it doesn't

Backcountry

5/22/17 3:17pm

That's a good point, it's not like the Detmer connection

Pretorian

5/22/17 6:33pm

No need for the emotion

Backcountry

5/22/17 7:42pm

i.e. Sound logic...

Pretorian

5/23/17 3:43am

His film reminds me of Bret Engemann

bigshake

5/22/17 3:08pm

Same

Gerald-DeGroot

5/22/17 4:13pm

his running style made me think of the Giraffe

icecougar

5/22/17 4:57pm

I wonder if the fact that he's Ty Detmer's nephew will discourage McKee and ...

icecougar

5/22/17 4:58pm

right, because Koy jr. has obviously been a beneficiary of that....

5/22/17 5:04pm

Glad the kid has cool first name....

BabyOx

5/23/17 8:12am

Why did Total Blue Sports identify him as a 4 star

qom

5/23/17 11:36am

Hes 4 star on scout

cougaman

5/23/17 12:03pm

Not anymore. He got bumped down after another evaluation period.

Lip Gallagher

5/23/17 12:18pm

Still listed as #28.
