Lost out on another LDS Polynesian recruit

I'm not sure why any DL would pick BYU over Utah right now.

LosAlcoug

1/28/20 10:11am

I get it for in-state players,

LifelongAP

1/28/20 10:14am

more playing time and better girls to date/marry....

HarlemCoug

1/28/20 12:31pm

Did we even have a chance?

Texas Hammer

1/28/20 10:12am

Unfortunate, but this is not surprising. His dad played at Utah.

DraperCoug22

1/28/20 10:14am

That would make more sense.

LifelongAP

1/28/20 10:15am

CB loves to overreact.

Benfica1

1/28/20 10:39am

Utah legacy kid, no surprise here.

bluescholar

1/28/20 10:15am

Utah ends up with plenty of BYU legacy kids. Is it too much to ask for BYU to snag a Utah legacy?

LifelongAP

1/28/20 10:18am

Our starting QB for one. But yeah, we'd probably get more if we didn't crap the bed so often.

CouchPotato

1/28/20 10:21am

I don't think BYU "landed" Wilson.

BrobaFett

1/28/20 11:25am

Utah takes PWO's all the time. He certainly could've gone to Utah as a PWO...

icecougar

1/29/20 11:28am

See Zach Wilson

Coug

1/28/20 10:21am

Don't show an obvious example. He's trying to make a point.

Benfica1

1/28/20 10:40am

You mean Wilson taking the scholarship over a walk on opportunity?

BrobaFett

1/28/20 11:25am

Study up, brother. Look at the scholarship list — most came in late, but...

Benfica1

1/28/20 11:41am

Hey sport, show me where Utah offered him a scholarship.

BrobaFett

1/28/20 12:15pm

Sure, but when that happens it is considered a Steal. Not a loss when they follow the legacy.

kccougar

1/28/20 10:23am

Family didn’t want to endure 4 years of media stories on how

cougfanz

1/28/20 10:28am

Um, we have. Multiple. Stop trying to cause a scene

Lip Gallagher

1/28/20 10:33am

Plenty = some. I don't know of any 'legacy' uu players. Their legacy started 15

icecougar

1/29/20 11:30am

Jackson and Isaiah Kaufusi, Zach Wilson...

icecougar

1/28/20 12:04pm

When did Utah offer Wilson a scholarship?

BrobaFett

1/28/20 12:16pm

when did "scholarship offer" enter the discussion?

icecougar

1/29/20 11:32am

Not sure I would consider him a 'loss.'

kccougar

1/28/20 10:15am

If you play defense or running back, Utah is a good landing spot

chazen

1/28/20 10:17am

No worries.. I am told on CB that Sitake is an "elite" recruiter

acougfan

1/28/20 10:20am

🙄

BrutustheBrash

1/28/20 10:30am

He would have been the highest rated player in BYU’s class

CallingDingo

1/28/20 10:32am

He was always Utah's to lose. And they didn;t. So BYU didn't lose him. Just didn't steal him away.

Turnpike Lane

1/28/20 10:33am

Who cares?

Benfica1

1/28/20 10:39am

Who care that BYU is losing the best LDS talent?

CallingDingo

1/28/20 10:49am

Geez, stop saying "losing." BYU is not losing a Utah legacy kid.

Lip Gallagher

1/28/20 10:56am

Semantics. How about BYU is FAILING to sign top LDS talent?

CallingDingo

1/28/20 12:38pm

We’ve always failed at doing this

LyleLanley

1/28/20 12:53pm

No, because no matter how negatively you attempt to phrase it,

Lip Gallagher

1/28/20 3:35pm

I'd be more concerned about Gentry than a uu guy going to the uu.

Benfica1

1/28/20 11:43am

Stop stirring the pot. His dad played for Utah.

LyleLanley

1/28/20 10:40am

Only way he was coming was if Utah didn't have room

stansburycoug

1/28/20 10:48am

Any Dline that chooses BYU over Utah right now is nuts

byu-binx

1/28/20 11:19am

Unless they want a true BYU experience and want to play in the NFL (both).

Rocketman

1/28/20 11:39am

Yeah. Sure.

byu-binx

1/28/20 9:38pm

Is he related to Ma'a Tanuvasa? That guy was a favorite of mine with the

kimdaddy35

1/28/20 11:22am

Yeah?

Heath Squashwell

1/28/20 11:42am

He was a long shot at best for BYU

donnerstag

1/28/20 11:46am

His Dad played for the Utes, he was theirs to lose. Credit to Kalani that...

icecougar

1/28/20 12:03pm

Utah has a scholarship crunch this year

stansburycoug

1/28/20 12:24pm

We have a scholarship crunch every year

LyleLanley

1/28/20 12:33pm

then as a fringe talent there's probably a shot at him transferring at some...

icecougar

1/29/20 11:34am

Is there any accountability for Tuiaki?

Lombardi

1/28/20 12:05pm

BYU's expecatations are obviously much lower than ours are

kimdaddy35

1/28/20 12:08pm

Who are YOU to question this staff?

Gerald-DeGroot

1/28/20 12:06pm

Is there something bigger at play here? Are teenagers less likely to be devout

DoseOfReality

1/28/20 12:07pm

I think all of that.

BrobaFett

1/28/20 12:16pm

I think there’s some truth to this. Not saying that’s the case with this recruit

Gerald-DeGroot

1/28/20 12:57pm

Do players maybe not want to go to a school where the alumni assume if you're

kos

1/28/20 1:23pm

They used to. Didn’t use to bother them. It used to be an honor.

Gerald-DeGroot

1/28/20 2:06pm

Good for him. Moving on.

OldFogey

1/28/20 12:18pm

The only way this is ever changes is if we abolish the HC. Why not?

breakingblue

1/28/20 12:25pm

It’s not the only way. We’ve always had the HC but recruiting has only recently

Gerald-DeGroot

1/28/20 12:58pm

That's true. It's not just the HC. But it's a starting point.

breakingblue

1/29/20 10:24am

It’s real simple. They just landed their best class ever, will have 7+ guys

Gathers

1/28/20 12:54pm

Except that we beat them quite often for kids

donnerstag

1/28/20 12:58pm

Occasionally but for example the only guy they wanted this year was Schoonover

Gathers

1/28/20 1:03pm

Most of the in-state guys Utah got didn't have BYU offers

donnerstag

1/28/20 1:07pm

blessings of independence

icecougar

1/29/20 11:38am

I agree with this take

hereforlaughs

1/29/20 10:49am

Sad but true

AntiSNOT

1/28/20 1:06pm

Or you could have just read the truth that about 50 people already posted.

Lip Gallagher

Poly’s don’t blindly follow what other Poly’s are doing.
