Jaren Hall was recruited by Bronco. Sitake "hung on" to him.

What year did Jaren Hall graduate HS? Sitake took over in 2017.

BlooCoug

Class of 2016

I’ll count that as a Sitake recruit then. He may not have identified Jaren, but

BlooCoug

Except you are wrong on when Sitake became HC.

Alan Schaefer

12:45pm

Sitake’s first season was 2016. 2017 was one of the worst seasons in BYU history

Alan Schaefer

True. But I don’t remember a season with as many freak injuries as that season.
