Two approaches to journalism... TBS vs. Utezone
Copied and pasted from a pay recruiting site. I think this is mildly funny but perhaps you all will disagree. I couldn't find a recruiting category so I put it in misc. but mods can recategorize if you want.

Dan:
1. This is Dan Sorenson from Utezone. How's it going?
2. It looks like the University of Utah recently offered you a scholarship. Which coach have you been talking to at Utah?
3. Tell me some of the other schools that you are interested in, and why you like them?
4. What position do you project at the college level?
5. How interested are you in the Utes? What do you like about Utah?
6. Are you planning on visiting any schools over the next few months or attending any camps?
7. Are you planning on visiting Utah?
8. When do you expect to make a decision?
Great, thanks for your time and good luck to you, I know this process can be tough. Please call me or text me if you make a decision either way.

TBS:
1. Hi, this is Talo Stevens from TBS, covering the Brigham Young University Cougars, who finished last year 10-3 with a prestigious bowl victory over the mighty Hurricanes (Fails to mention that it was the Tulsa Golden Hurricane). Bronco told me at Chuck-a-rama last night that he offered you a blessed scholarship opportunity to play football for the mighty cougars. How blessed do you feel to have the rare opportunity to play football for a sage leader such as Bronco?
2. Okay, and how much does BYUs 1984 national championship play into your decision making process?
3. Where were you in 1990 when Ty Detmer beat the number 1 Miami Hurricanes , and how did you feel about that historic moment?
4. On a scale from 10 to 10, how great is it that you will be playing games on ESPN in front of a nationally televised audience, bringing great exposure to the LDS church and hopefully leading to hundreds of souls choosing to enter the waters of baptism because of your inspiring play?
5. I see you were offered by a couple of other schools as well. Was it difficult to turn down the other coaches to tell them that you were going to be a BYU cougar?
6. What fireside position do you see yourself playing at the next level? Are you more of a first speaker, prayer giver, or musical number kind of player?
7. I noticed that you are receiving interest from the University of Utah as well. How disappointed do you think your family would be if you chose to play for a team that goes against your religious principles?
8. Are you familiar with the scripture that no man can serve two masters? Follow up question Did you know that the University of Utah's coachs full name is Kyle "Mammon" Whittingham?
9. Which BYU slogan from the last several years do you feel has touched your life the most, We are BYU, Rise up, Fully Invested, or Band of Brothers?
10. Can I expect your decision to play football for BYU to be confirmed through prayer in the next week?
