BYU as an Ind

can't recruit kids who want to play at the highest level of college football which is now P5 affiliation. No access to relevant bowl games. We don't play for championships.

The gap between P5 and not-P5's grows every year.

They're not less dispersed. They've always been dispersed throughout the P5s.

If we start putting more guys in the NFL, the recruits will come.

There are like two 4 stars committed outside of P5 schools.

Wasn’t there only one or two four stars that didn’t sign with a P5 school? BYU

Lip Gallagher

So you believe you can have a good season with lousy recruiting?

Recruiting since going Indy had been bad. It's just a fact.

Moops

1/14/21 6:21pm

It has less to do with being Indy and more with Utah being P5

thebyuman32

1/14/21 6:25pm

Haha ok. Doesn't explain being passed up by AAC schools.

Go away if that's all you ever want to talk about.

Disagree, there are five to ten G5 teams out recruiting BYU each year.

Yep, West coast kids are dying to play in the AAC.

Because they are winning more. Most of all kids want to play for a winning team.
