Mr. Scoobs

It's clear that he recruits better than Bronco

Um, it is?

SandYFan

8/20/18 11:39am

This metric means a lot more than recruiting averages

donnerstag

I'd argue the metric is about who performs on the field for BYU. I don't

The Sitake recruits are all underclassmen

Right. Hope most of them pan out.

It doesn't actually, Bronco's staff used to lock up kids

kimdaddy35

8/20/18 12:11pm

Sitake is locking players up early too

donnerstag

8/20/18 12:19pm

Sitake's early recruits leave. Bronco didn't have that problem. To your point

kimdaddy35

8/20/18 12:22pm

Not true. Top talent comes more often under Sitake

Why don't we go by actual recruiting rankings like the rest of the

like I said, check your facts. Some of those are transfers.

Which were counted as signees and included in the rankings

kimdaddy35

transfers don't count in the rankings.

No take a look at this list and tell me which ones you think aren't

kimdaddy35

Is that why when Norm Chow went from USC to Hawaii

Norm Chow was the head coach at USC? I don't remember that.

kimdaddy35

He was the OC of an elite offense

Sure. But that doesn't mean he couldn't elevate the offense
