his original recruiter.

Told me the reason he signed with OSU over Utah was because of Kalani. Makes sense he transfers to where Kalani is now coaching https://t.co/rWhI93MqhT

Where did he originally sign?

Alister Mackenzie

I think it was OSU.

Oregon State - did BYU even show interest at all?

He may have had no interest in BYU before the mission.

If you included all these transfers in the 2018 recruiting class it would

2017 class

Turnpike Lane

6/20/17 4:52pm

The first year they would be able to play is 2018 though

ayfan

6/20/17 5:02pm

Why can't he play this fall?

WorfoSAUR

6/20/17 5:49pm

He can... But the word on the street is that if Kalani can they will redshirt RM's..

Adrielle

6/20/17 7:57pm

I thought he said the opposite he wants to get guys through the program

OC Coug

Can I get a hallelujah? Not a religious man, but it seems that Kalani is living right on and off the field and magic is

TyPower2016

When he signed with OSU, he was their highest rated recruit that year

Pete

6/20/17 4:50pm

Not too shocking. #14 LB is a big get for all but about 5 teams out there.

mantis mutu

6/20/17 11:00pm

When is he eligible?

BYUCPA

6/20/17 4:50pm

I'm guessing now.

Grit for Brains

6/20/17 4:52pm

Yes

cougarmanguy

6/20/17 4:54pm

He signed with osu, doesn't that mean he has to sit?

IceCreamButt

6/20/17 4:54pm

No, not unless he enrolled in school. At least that is my understanding.

Mikey

6/20/17 4:56pm

Yeah, that sounds right. I always forget about enrollment

IceCreamButt

6/20/17 4:58pm

I would be really surprised if he didn't redshirt though if he just got home.

Four star kid with offers all over

cougarmanguy

Haha!

Jeffacka

Is he the linebacker?

yaxcoug

6/20/17 4:57pm

Yes

cougarmanguy

6/20/17 4:57pm

This is actually a legitimate BIG get guys.

Gerald-DeGroot

6/20/17 5:09pm

What's this? Some optimism from Gerald-DeGroot?

AndyDwyer

6/20/17 5:25pm

It's deserved. I see him being a really good player. Hope he RS's this year tho.

Gerald-DeGroot

6/20/17 5:33pm

Can't be right. There's got to be a gray lining in this somewhere...

Gentleman Stan

6/20/17 6:04pm

Like how tall he is when you stand next to him at the gym...

Lol. Ahh that brings back good memories.

Gerald-DeGroot

Of the transfers I don't know who is tops: he, Hoge & Kirby are all bigtime.

You seem to forget UU earned that title long ago by offering after BYU did.

How about a trade. We become the BYU Poachers

TBabyCougs

I know.....I said it jokingly but it would be hilarious

Coug98

6/20/17 7:56pm

I was thinking the same thing

(Private)

6/20/17 9:28pm

Yeah no one ever transfers to Utah

TBabyCougs

6/20/17 7:03pm

What other program relies on poaching for most of their top recruits?

ALUF 1990

6/20/17 7:06pm

You should ask David Collette about improper transfers. Or you can ask us about proper transfers. We'll gladly

HarlemCoug

6/20/17 7:23pm

So.....poaching missionaries is doing it the right way???

ALUF 1990

6/21/17 3:38am

lol. the rules couldn't be more clear. BYU isn't doing anything wrong. You look small trying to pretend that we are...

HarlemCoug

He's a Ute fan on a BYU board. He has always looked small. Being little brother

IceCreamButt

You see what your ute friends are saying about your religion on Twitter?

Jeffacka

6/21/17 10:40am

So BYU gets too many transfers? Is that really your belief? Or are you just

WhiteAndBlue

6/20/17 7:25pm

Hmm 2 seasons is now reliant on transfers??? So what were all the other seasons

TBabyCougs

6/20/17 7:33pm

A lot of these guys would have committed to BYU originally if Kalani was here.

cougaman

6/20/17 7:35pm

We'll trade you straight up: our transfers for your P5 membership.

Gonzaga has done pretty well with that philosophy.

cougaman

6/20/17 8:38pm

BYU should do the Utah thing and just lie about what position they'll play.
