Not every kid wants to play for a top 25 program. Some would rather go to UVA.

What's funny to me is they made that decision after UVA gives up 59 to UNC, and BYU wins another game against a Top 25 team.

Maybe these kids thought they would get more playing time at UVA?

I hope BYU beats UVA by 50

I hope BYU beats UVA by 60.

I’ll ruin it and hope we win by 20

A Crowton two points would be enough for me.

Hopefully those kids know that there is a decent chance Bronco retires in 2-3

I thought some argued that Bronco was not a very good recruiter.

Have you not personally witnessed BYU’s depth the past 15 years? Bronco was bad

Then we have nothing to worry about as he won't steal BYU recruits, right?

False assumption. That would assume all things are equal. Bronco has advantages

9/22/21 9:57pm

p5 is no longer a concern and BYU is a top academic institution too.

runnincoug

9/23/21 7:28am

UVA is Tier 1 academics. BYU is not. P5 is still an issue until BYU has P5 $$$

Please describe a potential BYU recruit who went to UVA for academics.

runnincoug

9/23/21 9:58am

Virginia is a "top academic institution" at a much different level than us; we may not be as good as we like to believe

My point is ... recruits don't go to UVA for academics. Name one who did?

runnincoug

9/23/21 10:25am

OK, I agree with you on that point; most football recruits aren't making their decision based on academics

krindorr

That was so stupid.

Pushing the hats off the table is disrespectful to the other schools. I doubt it

Really? Disrespectful? That’s laughable.

The whole pick the hat ceremony is always stupid. People need to stop doing it

They had offers from Oregon and chose Virginia? That’s something.

Makes me mad, too, when someone does their job

Did they really have Oregon offers?

High school kids in the limelight. Just pick up the hat. I would show that

They’ll transfer to BYU in the end, like the Nacuas 😉

Small town kids are attracted to big cities. Coaches are dad’s teammates

Provo is bigger than Charlottesville FWIW.

Yeah but it’s close to other bigger metro areas.

Not really, DC is 2.5 hours away, Richmond is 2 hours away

Charlottesville is not a big town. And it’s not

But they do have a lot of white supremacists though

Campus super nice, but Charlottesville is really grimy now. 10 yrs ago was nice

We shouldn’t be saying anything negative about potential recruits they read this

It comes off that way. The counter argumentent is hat it helps create buzz

Didn't people used to just make a phone call and send a fax?

The kid made a decision in and of himself.

They'll realize their mistake in a year or two. They always do
