And it's lame every time. I get that often the recruiting site guys are true

fans of the teams they cover, but the constant excuses and blatant homerism only cause me to doubt their ability to honestly analyze talent. I rarely pay attention to any recruiting "experts" as is, but Markham and Swinney are 2 of the homerest of homers that there ever could be.

If it didn't happen with every recruit BYU gets, it might be more believable.

If it was any other position I would agree. But they don't miss on many DT's. If they get

It's job security I guess. Gotta pander to the most insecure fan base

The worst part about Swinney is that he pretends like he's only a UCLA fan and

Okay? Is that somehow supposed to inspire confidence?

I wanted him, but knew he was probably headed to BYU.

I think what he's saying is accurate but only because he was clearly going to Y

Utesplease

1/22/17 11:32am

The spin is what's inaccurate. He's implying that it wasn't a recruiting victory

Incorrect - You offered, therefore you played the game

Lol, I keep telling you guys that Tuifua was a nice get. If you're not gloating
