Imagine not having LDS ties or Polynesian ties?
Where would BYU be?
A lot of schools don't have that luxury or advantage like BYU.

Take away the LDS tie-in and BYU becomes Cal Lutheran of Division III.

It is shallow, like Shallow Hal. I think we're shallower than BSU.

Maybe, but we generally rank higher than BSU in recruiting.

Compared with everyone else: It's a wading pool compared with olympic-sized pool

The pool is very small.

No. There's plenty of talent that would come here

I wonder if the brethren keep the honor code to limit applications.

What's most alarming is we've gotten noticeably worse in this regard

AMEN! The Honor Code is a blessing and a curse

Start with all the kids willing to live the honor code while in college

I know a lot of people who haven't lived the honor code.

Yes it is small. But it is also a very rich pool considering the size.

The UNLVs don't typically get the looks from the LDS and Poly kids

What percentage of the current roster is non-LDS?
Cougtruth
