Or close to it from 20-22. It helps to have great players like TA, Puka, Hall, Wilson, and draftable OL. They kept their OL coach too long as he should have been let go after his first year.

Dang. Now only 5 more to go.

But is there a difference maker in the bunch? Heard a lot of good things about Ryder.

Burton actually looked like the best QB on the team during the '23 Spring game..

I wonder if he’s close with Chaz. Might be connected to him entering.

DieHarder

Like he is Chaz's son?

Grandson.

Or it's simply the deadline to enter. Hmmm which is more likely?

Soupie

Wow it’s almost like maybe the coaches knew something when they signed Hillstead

Those same coaches were the ones that signed Burton in the first place. Anyone that followed High School football in

It was a bizarre offer, every coach makes them. ARod has a string of them over

Junior Deputy

It’s really sad that every bizarre offer from Arod has been protected and insured with “But Beck said he was good!”

Trainers pump up their guys, they’re biased and recruiters should talk to them

Seriously, the “Beck endorses him” stamp gets nothing more than an eye roll now

He made some throws other kids couldn't but otherwise was pretty average

Burton is only a freshman

Or maybe it's WHY he is transferring.

Signing another QB might be why he’s leaving

Best arm in QB room?

Are you suggesting that he somehow managed to be noticeably better than the QBs listed in front of him but Kalani and

Zach Morris

Apr 30, 4:01pm

Never thought he'd be a starter right away but was a good QB to develop going forward.

Soupie

Apr 30, 4:02pm

But good according to what though? He was an average HS QB in a bad region in Utah so I’m curious to know where the idea

Zach Morris

Springville has actually been a solid program of late. 2 of BYUs better...

Sure but that doesn’t address Ryder’s skill level and not just that it refutes the prevailing narrative that Ryder was

Hammer15

Not saying better, just stronger arm

Dr T-bone

Apr 30, 4:05pm

might be better development opportunities for him to play at JC level or FCS

I believe Arod and other staff are all in on the dual threat QB and not sure

But Slovis did?

I think Slovis is the reason they are all in with the dual threat QB thing.

In addition to the o-line performance. In my opinion A-rod and staff saw the

Both from Springville also. Hillstead played at Skyridge but is from Springville.

Noooooo

I believe there will be one more QB to enter

We are making a mess of our QB room ARod told us Burton was a lot like Zach

The same fans who will argue that “Arod develops QBs” are the same fans who are baffled when numerous QBs under his

What a genius offer, A-Rod

There were several on here that thought Burton would start this year.

I don’t understand why ARod wasn’t fired last year. Oh wait Kalanis the coach.
