Some love it. I did. My kids who have attended BYU have not. Reasons are varied but not infinite.

I wish all peace and success in whatever decisions they make.

Devin Kaufusi is a captain at Utah, Does anyone on CB know why he didn't do well

ALUF 1990

He wasn’t patient enough and got injured

Didn’t like BYU’s response to LGBTQ stuff and his sister is a lesbian + his best friend is Brit Covey. Meh loss.

mulletino

I knew the Covey part and his friend Gabe transferred from Stanford

ALUF 1990

I can confirm the LGBTQ side of things.

She was a good athlete at BYU

Huh? As a member of Devin's extended family you are not correct. He is close with Covey, the reasons

Sounds like you need to have more in depth conversations with Devin like I have.

mulletino

8/19/22 2:59pm

Ok, sure think LOL

Dynomite

8/19/22 3:05pm

By the way, his twin sister is my daughter-in law...we will have a good laugh about this on Sunday, might

Dynomite

8/19/22 3:11pm

Well yeah. You should maybe consider talking to Devin about it. That’s my whole point.

mulletino

8/19/22 3:23pm

I am confident with my conversations and the dynamics, but that won't matter to you. Moving on now.

Dynomite

8/19/22 3:29pm

You realize you and mulletino probably know each other?

CougarBuddy

I know Devin and you two are both wrong.

OverratedHumor

8/19/22 6:31pm

I DO know him, and they really are both wrong.

Ragnar Danneskjold

8/19/22 7:30pm

I happen to know Devin very well and this is wrong

Sir_Ten

8/19/22 8:35pm

You’re both wrong. I have it on good authority he wanted to get away from the

Ha, ha. If you know Michelle there is some truth to this.

Talking to people close to the family and program…these are the two reasons I

Because he wanted to play end at BYU and he not an end. At the u he moved inside

Blueto

8/19/22 12:49pm

He wasn’t good enough for BYU.

DieHarder

8/19/22 12:49pm

Too skinny. Bad leverage. Got pushed around. Not gonna lie, I expect him to be a weak link for them.

Turnpike Lane

8/19/22 12:50pm

So true. If he's starting, it's a bad sign for Utah's d-line.

Rise Against

8/19/22 2:42pm

Or, he has become a much better player than when he first got off mission.

Zoobieman

8/20/22 7:48am

He is a senior

Sea Chicken

8/19/22 12:50pm

This.

Benfica1

8/20/22 9:17am

He'd never seen a Kaufusi be successful at BYU and figured it couldn't be done

Mzansi

8/19/22 12:53pm

When yr in school did he leave BYU? Most FR/Soph players don't do well

Covid-19

8/19/22 12:54pm

How good is he doing?

JuicyJam

8/19/22 1:05pm

Wish him the best. Good luck and an a long career.

BostonCougar

8/19/22 1:07pm

He’s a good kid, I love the Kaufusi family his sister was one of my students

Big12Yfan

8/19/22 1:08pm

He wasnt good here, and he doesnt seem to be good there either.

Backcountry

8/19/22 1:15pm

He seems like a good kid with natural leadership abilities. He wasn't much of a factor for us, or against us last year

Bob Vance

8/19/22 1:28pm

About that…

mulletino

8/19/22 1:34pm

I'd be shocked if he had a breakout game against us this year. No chance.

SingleStrapBackpack

8/19/22 1:37pm

Small bowl game chance

Still Questing

8/19/22 2:33pm

Ha, OK. I'll give you that 🙂

SingleStrapBackpack

8/19/22 2:36pm

I agree. It’s very unlikely both of us win our playoff game to meet for NC…

moknowssports

8/19/22 10:09pm

Is he a starter at Utah?

kccougar

8/19/22 1:42pm

Not a cultural fit.

Mjolnir

8/19/22 1:58pm

Was young and had some health issues at BYU

AFcoug7

8/19/22 2:06pm

He did play injured and should have taken time off to heal. Just like Bronson and Corbin, the Kaufusi's

Dynomite

8/19/22 3:05pm

He, like Corbin, should have played OL. Both could have been elite tackles.

If I recall, not all Utah captains are starters. He is experienced and likable.

The Kavorka

8/19/22 2:17pm

This is correct. thicc boi was a captain last year and not a starter to start

NYC and Japan

8/19/22 2:19pm

In a warped way, he wanted to continue being on the losing side of the rivalry. He has distinguished himself this way

CLCougar

8/19/22 2:42pm

Honestly I would have thought he would change positions like his bros did NFL

citizenking

8/19/22 3:49pm

I think most of you are dead wrong. I bet he plays on Sundays like his brothers

Scott_Tenorman

8/19/22 4:35pm

I know Gabe Reid (Spencer Reid) started over Devin at Timpview but BYU offered

BYU-Laie

8/19/22 4:36pm

Holy class of 2015… forgot he is that old. He may just be an absolute man at

LumberCoug

8/19/22 7:09pm

I've heard from two different people who know him personally

GSwarriorcoug

8/20/22 12:18am

You know a million CBers are saying this exact thing at their family BBQs this

DirtyWater

I am embarrassed that I started this thread. I thought I was asking a football

ALUF 1990

8/20/22 3:59am

Aluf you know CB long enough we'll never miss

kiyoshige

8/20/22 7:20am

You set up a troll post to trigger BYU fans then feign being shocked when you get just desserts. Boo hoo

CLCougar

8/20/22 11:58am

Sounds like a lot of gossip that is nobody’s business.

coastcat

8/20/22 7:33am

Good for Devin! I am happy for him!

Zoobieman

8/20/22 7:46am

Lots of times people will ask personal questions and we give some answer.
