Is there any animosity toward BYU?

I don’t know. Kinda seems like it tho.

His brother walked on and never played.

I think he HAD a scholarship, but then lost it?

coug719

12/8/21 11:31am

Do we think he would have played had he gone to Michigan? Highly

He had a scholarship & then they pulled it? That doesn’t happen while enrolled

What about Sione finau? Pretty sure it happens regularly.

He went transfer portal. You’re basically renouncing scholarship when you enter

Transfer portal happens everywhere because kids want to play asap

Huh? I'm talking about BYU pulling scholarships. Big 12 requires 4 year scholarships. BYU has been pulling schollies

kimdaddy35

12/9/21 10:00am

No they haven’t. It would hurt recruiting. No program does it unless kicked off

You are 100% wrong. Own it.

No—but Jim is a top coach who loves our culture and has his team in the playoff.

Oh Saint Jim. He loves our culture. Oh brother.

It's okay, he taught a first discussion to a new investigator - a Mr. Harbaugh.

Kid must hate BYU.

Honestly it’s easier for me to swallow losing a recruit to Michigan than to UVA.

Michigan was always his #2

Funny. I call my #2s "Michigan" as well.

Nua for DC!!!!

12/8/21 12:01pm

Eh, just wish them well and maybe they show in the portal someday. He's probably 3 years away from actually playing

How soon do you think he would see the field at BYU?

Big12Yfan

12/8/21 11:05am

Younger Barrington played a lot this year which would put the higher rated Gentry on the field next year

kimdaddy35

12/8/21 11:44am

Everyone is different

Big12Yfan

12/8/21 1:10pm

Apparently he is in Utah though for his mission so it does feel like a little gut punch from that angle.

Picture online of Harbaugh with Gentry as a missionary.

gocougs719

12/8/21 11:32am

Yes, the picture is from this week. Andrew is assigned in Utah.

Honestly between Big10 championship, normal recruiting

gocougs719

How is that legal? Gentry is not in the transfer portal. As a missionary I would be turned off by this

kimdaddy35

12/8/21 12:01pm

Or maybe his parents reached out and helped him get in contact? Maybe

stgeorgecougar

12/8/21 12:02pm

How would that make it legal to talk to him if he was not in the transfer portal?

kimdaddy35

12/8/21 12:07pm

He never enrolled at Virginia. Essentially a free agent after a year.

HBCoug

12/8/21 12:12pm

LOI expires after a certain amount of time, and he never enrolled at UVA.

I will say it again as I said it before. Gentry did not like BYU's coaches and felt like they didn't need to sell
