How obtuse can you be?

Not every LDS player wants to have anything to do with BYU. Just because they share a religion? So so so many more thing go into choosing your college than religious affiliations, yet that is your only consideration here. I just don’t understand that line of thought.

There’s a reason Gonzaga pulled his offer.

They did. Even though sites still show his offer is current.

SlantRoute

11/8/18 3:57pm

I heard they pulled it as well. He wouldn't commit and they had other options so

Yes offer was pulled from Gonzaga.

I thought BYU had the advantage with this kid.

11/8/18 1:58pm

not for a while.

Well....at least it wasn't Utah. Not a very intimidating photo.

He did. Didn't realize it was tofu and black bean though.

11/8/18 4:15pm

He has skill and measurables, but I was never impressed when I saw him.His older

good news as far as I'm concerned. Yewts had a much better chance than we did.

Has there ever been a less intimidating pic in recruiting history?

NOCAL_YFAN

11/8/18 2:51pm

Yah, we did not want you anyway ... 6'11 guy recruited by all kinds of power 5

11/8/18 3:04pm

Have you watched him live? He’s Gavin McGregor.

SlantRoute

11/8/18 3:06pm

is it possible few pulled the offer because he can get numerous 6 11'' guys any

11/8/18 3:18pm

Oregon is a top 20 program right now ... I have not seen this kid in person, but

11/8/18 5:38pm

So by your own words here:

LEHI cougar

11/8/18 5:57pm

Oh, you got me! Yes, it is a miss when BYU misses on getting a top LDS

11/8/18 6:08pm

How obtuse can you be?

LEHI cougar

11/8/18 8:29pm

Agree. Some people just take their religion more seriously.. for others it might

cougfanz

11/8/18 8:42pm

Huh?! You seem to be taking this personally. I don't fault the kid at all for

They eliminated BYU because BYU didn't recruit Spencer? If that were the case

BYUheaven

11/8/18 3:54pm

Why would any kid choose to play in the WCC, if any other option was available?

Bluegoogles

11/8/18 4:46pm

I am not saying he made a bad choice, using the "byu didn't recruit Spencer"

BYUheaven

11/8/18 5:09pm

maybe the same reason why Gonzaga is able to get great players even though they're in the same league?

SingleStrapBackpack

11/8/18 9:13pm

So, you're saying byu and Gonzaga are equal. SMH

Bluegoogles

11/9/18 3:05pm

I should rephrase – BYU has its OWN reasons (tradition/religious affiliation) why kids will go there even if they're WCC

SingleStrapBackpack

11/9/18 4:01pm

Gonzaga gets kids inspite of being in the WCC, simply because they want to play

Bluegoogles

11/9/18 5:14pm

So in summary: some kids choose to play in the WCC even when other options are available. Thank you.

SingleStrapBackpack

11/9/18 5:38pm

No, they choose to play for Mark Few inspite of the WCC. Thank you.

Bluegoogles

11/9/18 6:09pm

I'm guessing you didn't shine in the reading comprehension portion of the SAT. You need to make up your mind about

If you can't follow along, I can try typing slower for you.

Bluegoogles

You can't understand what you yourself wrote?! If typing slower helps you with that, by all means.

Why you calling his family soft? Uncalled for.

mokelembembe

11/8/18 3:57pm

Agree. Painting the family like that is embarrassing for them

Dang. Another Cougarboard casualty.
