Would Young really come to BYU right as the Suns are starting the playoffs?

I just looked up Kevin Young and found out I coached against his team when he was in high school. I don't remember him.

No touching All-American

8:32pm

I served a mission in that area around when he would have been in school. I remember kids in our ward signing up to play

RalphWiggam

8:37pm

I think the best coach is either Jensen or Young.

JackArchi

I think Chandler and others would love to play for young once they read his bio. They’d be crazy not to give him a shot

Young with Burgess as an assistant.

If Burgess can keep getting good recruits, I'll take him all day long.

Even if Utah is doing well, that's still all true.

But if Utah is doing well, they aren’t losing their coach

Unless a Blueblood comes along and wants him.

Schultz is back

yeah, that scenario seems pretty far fetched with Utah going to Big 12

State schools will always offer more than BYU

There is no evidence for that when BYU has equal revenue

Not necessarily, Smith was probably “willing” to pay more.
