Famika Anae, this beast had a whole lot of nasty...
so sad that the neck injury forced him to retire.

Taysom Hill too. He got injured a bunch

Also Marcus Dupree is another one. ESPN 30 for 30 on his story was great

Langi Tuifua could have been great. Hinds is another guy that could have made a

Langi Tuifua comes to mind.

We don't beat Tennessee or USC without him. Our record would have looked much

If that kid had ANY chance — the mission was gonna have to be axed.

To a certain extent, Jordan Pendleton.

Brian Soi, Manaia Brown

1/28/22 1:42pm
Brian Soi was amazing, but his problem wasn't injury.
YSMACK
1/28/22 1:44pm
Brian Soi was so good. If he could've just stayed in a college program for 4 years straight....
mokelembembe
1/28/22 2:02pm
Yep. He was like Ngata good in HS.
YSMACK
1/28/22 2:08pm
At Utah State he was still as dominant. Blew up college lines as a Frosh. But that one year was all he ever played.
mokelembembe
1/28/22 2:17pm
I forgot he played at USU.
YSMACK
1/28/22 2:38pm
He went to a prep school first before Utah State.

I played against Soi in high school. I still have nightmares about it.

Austin Holt, Richard Wilson, and Ross Apo come to mind.

I play softball on occasion with Rich Wilson and that dude can CRUSH the ball.

D1 athletes are in a special class. It's sobering when you realize what it takes to get there at all in terms
Bob Vance

Truly, I mean I hit home runs but when he really cuts loose he hits moonshots

Uncle Rico. He’d have been great. No doubt, no doubt in my mind.

1/28/22 1:47pm
I think he is on the roster at the ewe. He's sitting so Rising can play.

Danny Frazier. Was poised to be a star IIRC (I was a young kid)

I think he was also the first African American basketball player for BYU
PenrynCoug

That bit of basketball history belongs to Keith Rice.
Rob of NV
1/28/22 2:28pm
I believe the very first was this guy:

I really liked the short glimpse of Famika Anae we got. He had some nasty to him

1/28/22 1:48pm
Was it two Hawaii linemen he knocked out?

Oh man, you could write books on all of the "what if" guys. For every athlete

Not a bad point…

1/28/22 2:35pm
Except Taysom Hill doesn't even make sense for the question asked.
Zoobieman

If he had sense enough to be a LB — ABSOLUTELY!

Never got to? Troy Hinds. Most of the others saw the field. So doesnt fit the question.

If you want to be technical, yes, but a guy like Tuifua who got a handful of

1/28/22 8:57pm
He got to play but lost his last two years, Gordon Hudson.

1/28/22 2:34pm
Did Troy Hinds (Sp?) ever suite up?

1/28/22 2:35pm
Ross Apo's injuries hindered his potential

Manaia Brown.... Criddle has alluded to this a couple of times.

Yes. Manaia was our Haloti. Even played around the same time

Colby Jorgensen was another guy I wanted to really see. Could've been a good DE or maybe an even taller Issac Rex

Not necessarily best player ever, but I have heard from a couple sources
Sale

He’s a heck of a head coach for the chiefs though.
