This is the kind of stuff that annoys me with this staff. Why are these players

So you were expecting these players to get a bunch of time vs SDSU and [bowl opponent]?

You never know whats going to happen with injuries and what they will need. I'm

And if those meaningful snaps help BYU win the games, that's still an overall

No, but the meaningless snaps early in the season are, like I stated in my OP.

Haven't redshirting players always been able to play in bowl games?

Keanu Hill has only had a few snaps all season

Right, which is why I question the coaching staff. They obviously made conscious

Seems like Hill will play against UMASS and then not again.

I agree, I just think he could play meaningful snaps against SDSU or the bowl

It is interesting that he played in the Tennessee game.

JuicyJam

What kind of snaps did he play in the Tenn game?

No idea. That’s just what it said in the article.

Maybe not as freshman but we may wish they had another year in 2023

By my comment I mean just redshirt them.

It does matter. It's small attention to detail that seperates the average from

Hill is, and he would be playing if there are injuries

Both Jackson Kaufusi and Wilgar redshirted? What are you smoking right now?
