BYU gains nothing from Utah's success, and it is instead detrimental to our

Clarification... Univ of Idaho football was pretty sucky both before and after

No way. How many Boise recruits would be going to Idaho if Boise sucked? None.

BYU and UTAH are not linked... BYU's downturn is on BYU.

Wrong. So wrong.

Recruiting. Utah has won more h2h recruiting battles as the program has gotten better

There are very few "H2H" recruiting battles.

If Utah wanted the Wilson brothers... they would be at Utah right now.

also (man, i'm ranting now).. BYU won the last H2H recruiting battle..

It hurts recruiting, perception, popularity, brand, number of fans, financially,

Recruiting has been talked about below.. everything else is false.

Utah will still get the same recruits... even with this loss

BYU also gains nothing from crapping the bed repeatedly.

If a player is "on the fence" I don't think a loss in the PAC12 Championship

News Flash: Utah does not recruit many Utah kids..

I disagree. BYU gets more recruits when Utah succeeds. If a recruit has offers

Your logical thinking and accurate post have no place on CB!

Correct. Of Utah's 11 current commits, all are from out of state. Of Course,

Yep, Utah is in on a bunch of top Utah guys this year, more than in most years,

Does Utah get many recruits that are Church members from outside Utah?

Yes, some. It certainly has had a better chance of getting a church member from

Again something BYU fan's don't like to admit.. Utah has a good institute..

I think your analysis is mistaken regarding recruits.

This is patently false and absurd. Look at BYU’s recruiting page.

That list reinforces my point. Notice that none of them are Utah commits, and

Look at Utahs past signing class... and look at this years recruiting page.

Luckily, most on-fence recruits receive a non-committable offer from the Ewetes

The most asinine comment I have heard is "cheer for the State of Utah." a) BYU has a smidgeon of independence
