Brandon C Gurney throwing more water on Ty’Son Williams commit

I don't think he would've committed if it had been a long shot

puntersarepeople

4/18/19 5:25pm

May not be in his control.

BYUALWAYSNUM1

4/18/19 5:25pm

They would’ve known about his chances by now

puntersarepeople

4/18/19 6:39pm

This is a solid point. I hope so.

theJuice

4/18/19 7:18pm

Who would have known?

BYUALWAYSNUM1

4/18/19 7:23pm

Coaches would at least have an idea of what is required for grad programs

puntersarepeople

4/18/19 7:45pm

Honest question...do other teams have trouble getting grad transfers in?

Sure doesn’t seem like it.

No. Some BYU administrators have a napoleon complex.

We need taller administrators then!

They are the same people that ruin the HC office, hang out in the left lane to enforce the law and love extra meetings

They’re the same people who prefer the Yale Y over the stretch oval Y

D.T. Survivor

4/18/19 5:47pm

People that hang out in the left lane are actually breaking the law. Just sayin'

ManicBlue

4/18/19 5:59pm

Yes. They are also making roads unsafe though they somehow think they're doing the right thing

TEXAS

4/18/19 6:24pm

People who love extra meetings are the worst

Our administrators are over-compensating for their short height????

1% chance some insiders have claimed.

He comes or that this rumor is 1% true?

trom2foot3

4/18/19 5:58pm

That he comes

The Dark Knight

4/18/19 6:00pm

1% that he gets admitted. Hopefully things change and the admissions dept pull their heads out their butz

BlueFrog

4/18/19 6:04pm

Agree with the sentiment, but grad admissions is not done by the Admissions

Situations like this have always confused me

Coug Man in Florida

4/18/19 6:22pm

That’s because most academics 👱🏻‍♂️ are complete snob morons, including BYU

It’s true though:

pegushin

The fact nothing official from the school yet kinda substantiates the notion

Pretorian

I think he was still needing to take the GRE when Ty'son made his post.

Holmoe said he would go to bat a big prospect. Does he count?

Who's the head of that department?

CLCougar

4/18/19 8:36pm

There’s no such program. There’s only a Communications Masters and I know who he’d talk to but I’m sure he’s

soupie

I did my undergrad in Comms

Punk Philosopher

4/18/19 8:59pm

Yep. Most broadcast people get great jobs w/ just a BA. Few need a MA.

Yeah--it was a joke...

CommsInsider

4/22/19 5:28pm

Yeah, I'm seeing that. For days I try to reassure people to calm down & we don't really know anything.

soupie

4/22/19 5:59pm

Thank you

CommsInsider

4/22/19 6:04pm

Him not getting in now would make it even harder to convince similar recruits

Well that’s wonderful.

A little insight into why grad admission is tough at BYU

runnincoug

4/18/19 11:52pm

If BYU can’t admit an athlete into the family & marriage masters program, then

Lieutenant America

4/19/19 12:43am

is that the master's degree he wanted and applied for?

runnincoug

4/19/19 12:45am

I don’t know, but I’m assuming didn’t apply for the MACC, and even if he is let

Academic processes at BYU are not more important than sports, the gospel, or

You realize byu can't let everyone in who is a nonmember right? That has never

runnincoug

4/19/19 3:06am

You realize every other major school, including schools with way better

Lieutenant America

4/19/19 5:41am

You realize of course these schools who "have it figured out" are sanctioned

runnincoug

4/19/19 7:28am

Notre Dame is not sanctioned “quite often for breaking the rules”

TheLoanArranger

4/19/19 7:38am

Well, they had to vacate wins from all of 2012 and 2013 because of cheating

This quote is interesting:

UberDeek

4/19/19 8:09am

Not really about taking it seriously. Grad programs are very different. It’s about

I would be equally disturbed by that, yes.

runnincoug

4/19/19 8:25am

That's not even close to what would be happening in this case. Many (not all)
