Not sure if Tonga is the best defensive player on the team.

11/15/18 11:27am

Its probably Corbin or TakiTaki, but either way Tonga started at DT as a Fr.

Hmmmm......he'd be my pick. His stats are not huge because of the attention he

He’s also lazy

Mathew

From a talent perspective, he's the #1 player

donnerstag

11/15/18 11:36am

He's a great player, especially as only a soph, but he could be a first round

Tonga tends to take plays off and not play with a high motor

Truth is recruiting ranking is an accurate indicator of future team success

Blueto

Not usually

donnerstag

11/15/18 11:38am

Actually yes. Almost always. Look at this article.

Blueto

11/15/18 11:40am

The article draws conclusions limited in scope

donnerstag

11/15/18 11:51am

They matter. Here's more data.

Blueto

That's a very poor interpretation of a badly written article

Coop

Bad article

Maybe. But it doesn't change the fact that recruiting top players equates

You should show historical 4 and 5 star recruits which have dragged BYU's actual results down

Indy Coug

4 and 5 star recruits underperform on average at BYU

Other than Tonga

2 star players are generally not expected to become starters

donnerstag

11/15/18 11:55am

So we've replaced bad Bronco players with legit 2 star athletes, wahoo

stoils

11/15/18 12:12pm

We've replaced Bronco players with players with better measurables

donnerstag

11/15/18 12:19pm

And we lose a lot more. Doesn't seem to be working.

The team is young. Have a little patience

in addition, due to recent seasons, we have to look for diamonds in the rough

11/15/18 1:46pm

Most of our 2-deep consists of 3 and 4 star guys...Tonga is an exception

boscatar

11/15/18 1:39pm

Other than Tonga and Katoa, none of the others have been al that impressive.

UNHuskerCoug

11/15/18 12:27pm

Aleva was arguably our best playmaker on offense before getting banged up.

che flaco

11/15/18 1:01pm

Is that saying much though, comparatively speaking?

UNHuskerCoug

11/15/18 2:24pm

People will disagree, but IMO, Wilcox has become one of the best corners BYU

CMuehle

11/15/18 2:56pm

I never heard anyone complain about Tonga and Katoa. Both P12 transfers...

NacoCoug

11/15/18 1:48pm

True. The rest aren't very proven

donnerstag

11/15/18 2:00pm

Yay, starters that helped the team win 4 games last year and 5 so far this year.

Donnerstag's posts nearly always make me feel at least a little

Meh... Having a couple of 2 stars play well is normal. Here are some other

Max Hall and Jamaal were both 3 star players on both rivals and 247

donnerstag

11/15/18 2:46pm

Rivals, ESPN gave Hall 2*. Check BYU's Commitment list for 2006.

What fraction of BYU's 2 star recruits become starters? What fraction of their 3
