Which BYU FB players would start for Utah?
jackryanslc
5/14/19 7:33am
QB, multiple OL, at least Tonga on the DL, likely both Kafusi’s at

Agree except Huntley would start over Wilson.

Maybe at Utah because the coaching staff refuses to throw, but Wilson is

Why would you say Huntley is equal as a passer?

5/14/19 10:38am
You are right. Wilson has significantly better stats in all areas of passing

Yes. He started Huntley over Troy Williams just two years ago.

Isaiah Kaufusi is a better linebacker than Bernard ever was

stats don't back that up one bit

Isaiah has better measurables and was more productive as a starter

5/14/19 3:28pm
what are you basing your decision on? opinion or stats? and what measurables?
BlueFrog
5/14/19 3:38pm
Kaufusi is 2 inches taller and is faster
donnerstag
5/14/19 4:02pm
Kaufusi is maybe 205 lbs. that's better measurables for a linebacker? our high school MLB is currently 6'2 225

less prototypical? now you are just talking out your butt. i think you made up those stats too. lame

Prototypical linebackers are 6'1" to 6'3"

5/14/19 10:29pm
ha. so now he has potential to be prototypical? and he only had 3 games total over 5 tackles. you're making stuff up

5/15/19 6:46am
Kaufusi only has 5 career starts where he played the whole game
