Looking just at stats you can question how good he will be. If you have seen him

play in person you would be crazy not to think he will be extremely successful in college. That doesn't mean he will be necessarily because lots of kids project well and then just don't make it in college athletics. Everything I have seen from Puka would point toward a stellar college career.

I had never heard of Puka Nacua until yesterday, so I looked up his stats:

Better hope Apo doesn't see your post.

Does Ross Apo get really upset if people ask questions about this kid's College

Richbyu

Ask SMR

Speaking of Ross, does anybody know if he wears heels?

There certainly is added angst, given the fact that he comes from a BYU family

Unibro

This kid kind of reminds me of the type of "high level" WR that BYU has

Richbyu

Also comes from a Utah family.

He's a good player. Yes, CB has overhyped him.... knowing he wasn't coming.

That says more about you than it does him. He had a fantastic HS career.

Yeah, I'm not from Orem, so I didn't really hear much about Utah County football

Richbyu

Playing down a division. Orem is toast now...

He's big time. Looks different on tape than almost every WR I've looked at......

Thanks for posting. This tells more of the story.

Richbyu

2/11/19 10:12am

I've watched him in person a few times. He was a very good HS player. I think he'll be a good college receiver

jdub

You didn’t notice that several of his highlights were against Bishop Gorman?

Cougar Rage

2/11/19 10:33am

Like I said, I watched him in person a few times. I think he's good. I think he'll be good in college.

I think the 4A criticism is fair...

They could've beaten any of those teams, not saying they would have but CC was

He's elite, no question in my mind. Could play D1 basketball too if he wanted to

palangi

Watch his tape--he actually reminds me of Kai but on the offensive side

LosAlcoug

2/11/19 10:09am

Good point. I agree after watching the video.

Richbyu

2/11/19 10:12am

If he would have picked BYU he would have been amazing. Since he didn’t, I don’t think he’s very good really and not

Zach Morris

LOL. Reminds me of the "Lone Peak Utah County 3" from our basketball team.

I think Puka is one of those kids in Utah that leaves the state because BYU and

Pure corner is probably the worst position in Utah high school football......

I watched Puka play several times this year. He deserves the hype. I wouldn't

hoydis

2/11/19 10:34am

He is the highest ranked recruit out of Utah this year and his bro is a BYU legend. Makes sense that we followed him.

HarlemCoug

2/11/19 10:35am

Why was BYU not really on his radar? Did his older brother not like it here?

COACHdrn

2/11/19 6:42pm

I don't know.

HarlemCoug

Kai liked BYU. Puka had stars in his eyes. Also he didn't go to Timpview either

He owns nearly every Utah HS record in receiving

I don’t think those have been updated to reflect this last season...

If he has a nose for the ball like Kai the kid will be a player

95% of HS height/weight stats are an exaggeration
