Won't Pilimai be back in time as well?

Probably smart long term. Why waste 4 yrs in school graduating with some liberal

Huh? People get real degrees and play football.

JuicyJam

4/20/18 11:44am

They get real degrees but they don't learn as much and don't prep themselves

GOR

4/20/18 12:01pm

Eh most people people aren't doing what you describe.

JuicyJam

4/20/18 12:05pm

Not sure when or where you went to school. But BYU pretty academically

kotacoug

4/20/18 1:21pm

Never said they were coasting.

JuicyJam

4/20/18 1:25pm

The fact that everyone is trying to get a good grade shows that students

You’re right that most students do that - but with athletes it’s even worse

I gave up wrestling in college. It was hard, but one of the reasons is that I

I tell my kids all the time that I would rather have them or I pay their way at

These are bad comparisons, he doesn’t have to choose sports at a D2 school. He

You’re missing the point

reddead

4/21/18 12:08am

Well then stick to the point, because the three DII stories here seem tangentia

ray ray

4/21/18 6:33am

Again, you misunderstand

I may have misunderstood your point, but then considering the two responses were

No. My point is that if it is a choice between a good school and no sports

Ah the mission advantage. Going to be a great year!

mulletino

That's the nature of missions

donnerstag

he was a big recruit. big loss.

Cougarclaw

4/20/18 11:06am

Too bad, his tape was awesome. Absolute beast.

NacoCoug

4/20/18 11:08am

Thought so too. Looked like about the last guy you would expect

mokelembembe

4/20/18 1:05pm

Agree very much. But one potential prob was he was a MLB in an OLB body.

mantis mutu

4/20/18 3:32pm

Yikes, that is a big loss

kimdaddy35

4/20/18 12:06pm

must be because he's married

korihor

Just another reason why Sitake has to start working the JC ranks...

Y4LYFE

I doubt it, I sat next to his HS coach at the Wyoming Poinsettia bowl

4/20/18 2:47pm

honestly not a bad choice

Idahofallsblue

4/20/18 2:49pm

he is a finance / pre-law major, I was close

4/20/18 4:03pm

Bummer. Well, he knows what's best for himself.

Is this a mission casualty?

That has nothing to do with it

Lip Gallagher

4/20/18 9:39pm

Actually, yeah. It does.

rockcandymax

4/20/18 10:42pm

Can you expound on the culture/coaching issues?

GOR

4/20/18 11:41pm

He’s not a Poly player, so probably best for him to move on

balssy

4/26/18 12:19am

I ran into him at the gym. He said it had to do with concussions

BYuckner

4/21/18 1:11am

If so then he made a smart choice. Best of luck to him.
