BYU is an absolute no-brainer for this kid.

COUGZ

He's a Ute fan, so it's not that simple.

Well, poop.

COUGZ

10/20/21 4:50pm

He'll have to decide if he's a bigger Ute fan, or a bigger Collin Chandler fan. If he's a bigger Ute fan then he goes to

Well said.

Yep. Probably an uphill climb to get him to flip to blue.

Get Zach Wilson on the horn. Caleb Lohner too

Zach didn’t have a Utah offer. Caleb was a byu fan

Covey grew up a BYU fan, went to the U. Wilson grew up U fan, went to BYU and

Big 12 still #1 conference per Scott Drew at Media day today with new teams.

Wait. . . They draw a curtain at the Huntsman center to hide how empty it is?

Zoobieman

Yup:

CougtheCreator

10/20/21 4:53pm

Yep. They’ve been doing that for a few years. Kind of pathetic really.

Unless it's a gymnastics meet. They open it for that...

And for what its worth, telling him that the Utes are pathetic is likely not

Granted, I have never sat through a recruiting pitch from Pope, but I highly

I wasn't giving Pope advice 🙂 I was addressing what people post on Cougarboard

All great arguments but keep in mind blood is thicker than water. Doubtful BYU

The family had no problems letting his older sister attend BYU, apparently.

BYU coeds > Yewt Coeds

Nat Gas Man

And BYU is the perfect place for an RM BB star to find a HCBW!

lbmango

10/20/21 4:54pm

True 20 years ago. Nowadays I'm not sure. BYU gets mainly nerds

Food Snob

but they can also farm at UVU

Nat Gas Man

Correction for genetics. BYU WVB > any Ute

Nat Gas Man

10/20/21 6:35pm

It will end up being all those things vs family & proximity to P12 locations...

The only things I would say are 1) BYU isn't "for everyone". Not even saying

fattycoug

10/20/21 5:01pm

Imo he'll commit to the Yewts. If they're still bad after his mission then he'll head to BYU.

Grit for Brains

10/20/21 5:01pm

Isn't he in a similar situation as Lohner

Remigius

10/20/21 5:03pm

Forgot one of the biggest factors for a teenage boy. No Honor code > honor code

Chefcurry

10/20/21 5:04pm

He is mission bound. Probably not thinking about nailing women at school

Carnac

10/20/21 5:16pm

Doesn’t mean anything….I had plenty of friends that didn’t go to byu so they

Chefcurry

10/20/21 5:32pm

My point is that for an active LDS guy, the Honor Code is not a heavy lift

Carnac

10/20/21 7:16pm

and plenty go to BYU and ignore the HC and get through all 4 yrs...

icecougar

10/20/21 7:42pm

There are also many that go to BYU because of the honor code.

I know there's hope that Smith will turn things around for Utah but that's a big

Mission-first buys him a couple of seasons to see what Smith does… can transfer

I wish you were Collin Chandler

Don't forget the NIL stuff. BYU seems to be in the forefront on that.

A legit 4 stars should be worth what? $400k

Nat Gas Man

If I were him I would go on the same mission that Jimmer went on and share a backcourt with Dallin Hall. Those two

Has he eliminated Stanford? I thought they were the early favorites

palangi

Unfortunately, no other team will work harder than BYU. Sounds too tough.

sah22

10/20/21 9:09pm

BYU 0%- not in his final 2 unfortunately.

Swishfromdeep3

10/20/21 11:26pm

Where are you hearing that? Everyone else is saying it's Utah or BYU.

CougtheCreator

10/21/21 5:55am

I thought only Robby McCombs was suggesting that

JoeExotic

And maybe just maybe he's talkin out his yewt.

SinkingQuffa

10/21/21 11:57am

Why bother doing an official visit this weekend then?

DraperCoug22

10/21/21 8:19am

He wouldn't be the first kid to take a visit with no intention of considering

Unless Pope can pull some last minute magic, he's going to Utah

how about joining the best basketball conference in the nation?

here's to hoping

10/21/21 9:39am

They're absolutely using that pitch with every recruit now.

Unless he grew up a Yewt fan...

What about playing in the NCAA tourney?

After listening to Robbie McCombs I get the feeling BYU’s close to pulling…
