holder for early Poly scholarship commits. The early offer commit/decommit pattern is definitely a net loss situation right now.

This was sad when it first started happening, now it’s at the point it’s comical.

Its gone from being painful, to funny, to expected, now i truly dont care.

Seriously

If only we were in the MWC. He woulda stayed committed. 🙁

So funny, but you're right the MWC is < INDY, but the AAC is > INDY.

I'm shocked I tell you, shocked.

Good thing our head coach is so committed to his buddy at DC... He's going to

"I want take thank Kalani and HF for giving me that anchor scholarship just in case I didn't get all the attention..."

BYU can and likely will still get good talent at LB

puntersarepeople

1/24/20 9:32pm

No one should put stock in such early commits

RockyBalboa

One down, and likely one more to go...

Zach Morris

1/24/20 9:43pm

Pretty sure Blake Freeland took a visit to Utah right before he signed

puntersarepeople

1/24/20 9:44pm

My guess is you if you visit elsewhere u become a 50/50 commit

cougfanz

Both BYU and Utah tried to get...

I wish more kids were like your son.

DraperCoug22

1/24/20 10:19pm

Agree. I come from a family of decommitters. We were the opposite.

cougfanz

1/24/20 10:33pm

People have known this about Fano for a very long time.

Lip Gallagher

1/24/20 10:04pm

Good points, All is well at BYU.

Zach Morris

1/24/20 10:08pm

Yep, that's the mature response that's always given when there's nothing to say.

Lip Gallagher

1/24/20 10:19pm

I’ll press on and expect that you’ll continue your outrageous responses to anyone who dare have a differing opinion than

Zach Morris

1/24/20 11:12pm

Sorry but could you outline the outrageous part of saying that

Lip Gallagher

1/24/20 11:14pm

It definitely worried me and I was mocked. And here we are.

DraperCoug22

1/24/20 10:19pm

Once again busting the myth that teams don't offer kids who commit early to BYU.

Blueto

1/24/20 9:49pm

That’s true; however if a guy shuts it down completely he may not get another

puntersarepeople

1/24/20 9:55pm

Its really up to the kid. If he doesn't answer calls and go to visits, the other

cougaman

1/24/20 9:55pm

No one is scared off by a commit to anywhere anym

Trying to generalize and lump every and all situations into one pool

Lip Gallagher

1/24/20 10:26pm

Correct. Instead of attacking BYU coaches, CB should focus on the kid's decision

Welcome to the Kalani Sitake era at BYU

kimdaddy35

1/24/20 10:05pm

He is killing the program - with a nice raise and a big smile

LV Mike

1/24/20 11:09pm

It seems like every time a commit has an offer to an elite P5 school

D.T. Survivor

1/24/20 10:31pm

Exactly I love how BYU de commits feel the need to mention that every time.

kotacoug

1/24/20 10:39pm

For me, I give them more backlash.

BYUHgrad

1/24/20 10:46pm

So true

DaFreeCoug93

Religious people, at times can be so dang manipulative with their “faith”.

Zach Morris

1/25/20 1:31am

I thought Kalani was essential for recruiting the top polys to BYU

ldssdl

1/24/20 10:32pm

That was made up by CB all along.

Lip Gallagher

1/24/20 10:47pm

I know, but it’s hilarious to see all the rationalizations for Kalani continue

ldssdl

1/24/20 10:54pm

Well the dumb ones should have died long ago so gullible people

Lip Gallagher

1/24/20 11:10pm

Who cares at this point?

Backcountry

1/24/20 10:39pm

Can we just be honest about this?

DaFreeCoug93

1/24/20 10:42pm

Let's actually be honest

stansburycoug

1/24/20 11:21pm

Exactly, if we had good coaching ...

vegas guey

1/24/20 11:31pm

Good point

I'mBatman

1/25/20 8:13am

The defensive scheme hasn't been the same all 4 years under Tuiaki

donnerstag

1/25/20 8:18am

So you admit his changes result in BYU getting worse defensively each year

BYU '80

1/25/20 2:10pm

The change in scheme was due to personnel confidence

donnerstag

1/25/20 2:51pm

Very good chance he ends up at the U

chazen

1/25/20 1:26am

If we are being honest, this has nothing to do with USF or Toledo

donnerstag

1/25/20 6:53am

Whether you wanna admit it or not the coaches are absolutely dropping the ball

stansburycoug

1/25/20 1:40pm

I am aware of the issues

donnerstag

1/25/20 2:53pm

Every coach on the staff should relied on

stansburycoug

1/25/20 3:37pm

So how many stars was this kid?

BleedCougarBlue2

1/24/20 10:46pm

3* 247 Sports.

Everyman

1/24/20 11:12pm

Look at his offer list. It's crazy

chazen

1/25/20 1:26am

A 2021 kid (~16 years old) who committed in 2017 (@ age ~13)...

TheLost

1/24/20 11:13pm

Did we publicly announce a college commitment?

DraperCoug22

1/25/20 1:23am

Rules say we can not say anything about a kid until they sign.

scott715

1/25/20 10:33am

I'm saying, 13yo you and me weren't on Twitter telling the world where we were

DraperCoug22

1/25/20 10:40am

All so they won't upset the drama queen fans. 🙂

Lip Gallagher

1/25/20 10:56am

Kid seems to have to have the same integrity level as Taysom Hill.. sheesh..

cougfanz

1/25/20 9:30am

Taysom switched because coaches changed

puntersarepeople

1/25/20 9:37am

Sheesh...learn the Taysom Hill story. I'm not saying anything about Fano's

This is just BS and talking about prayer in these tweets seems really insincere.

SaintGeorgeYFan

1/25/20 4:41am

Im tired of the old generation and the incompetent leader at BYU who ran

Backcountry

1/25/20 5:16am

It's more complex than that.

Everyman

1/25/20 7:54am

Not surprising. He commited when he was 15 or something. He now has some legit

PessimisticCB

1/25/20 9:34am

And then the BYU recruiting twitter account retweets his announcement? Strange.

GlebBaser

1/25/20 11:45am

HArd to believe in Sitake when he won't make needed changes

Coug Dude

1/25/20 12:16pm

I honestly put little faith in the “commitments” of these kids...

CoachSpeak

1/25/20 2:29pm

The only reason we should put a lot of stock in a commitment is when the recruit
