Let's simplify this
what's Bronco's record with Crowton recruits and without? His track record doesn't look too good when using 100% of his own recruits even if you include transfers and players that came from Africa.

I don't get your list. Where is Taysom Hill?

He doesn't qualify as a signed athlete out of HS or JC

he didn't actually go to Stanford, but that is semantics

He wouldn't have "signed" with Stanford if BYU had recuited him better

Hill was actually upset at BYU during the recruitment

You are right. He came to BYU because Stanford wouldn't let him come mid-year

Yeah, I'm a pretty big Bronco guy, but that initial whiff on Taysom was a huge

BYU recruited him, offered him a scholarship and he accepted. I don't see

Offering before the end of someone's Jr year is not very late. Maybe he wasn't

Also factor in Sorenson's special teams play. Was phenomenal on special teams.

True. Bills played a little there too, but not as good

I love stats, but there aren't enough defensive stats to truly compare.

Bills won't make it to any camp. probably done.
