fact it is owned by the LDS church.  That will naturally limit the fast athletes we need to compete at top 15 levels.  Sure we get a few fast athletes here and there but nothing compared to the top 15 programs in the nation who have a legitimate shot at the BCS playoffs each year.  Its just a fact and I don't know if there is a real solution to the reality of BYU sports.  We're kinda stuck in a state of mediocrity.  

It's like the Jazz being stuck in Utah.  Occasionally we get a Karl Malone / Donovan Mitchell but we don't attract the big time all star players like the top 8 teams in the NBA who have a legitimate shot at division playoffs each year.  The Jazz are kinda stuck in a state of mediocrity.  

I have become less stressed about sports as I get older and accept reality and just enjoy the fact we have a decent football team and pro basketball team to watch each year.  Can't wait for both to start up again this fall and I don't have any false hopes that BYU will be playing on New Years day or that the Jazz will be playing next June.  It's all good.
