These days it seems like you're not guaranteed anything except the current year out of any player, so getting plug and play guys seems a lot better than investing years into guys only for them to leave.

Awesome...that ks for pulling this

You need to do their updated transfer ratings.

Who does these ratings? How does Conover get an 86?

Stalwartbob

1/25/23 4:22pm

I agree. 247 Sports has a team that does transfer ratings. I will say an 86 is

Those are at key positions too. Great job, BYU.

9 Players transferred to BYU - 13 Players transferred from BYU. 23 Stars in 39

Good thing that’s not how it works lol

I can't wait to hear how it works, please?

Here is how it works, when Players transfer from BYU to northern Colorado

Translation: Only bad players transfer out and only good players transfer in.

Did I say that? Your seer stones are low on batteries

The clown response is including Holker as your crown jewel of bad players.

This is a bad take.

His stats are mid, athleticism mid, makes sense he ended up at CSU.

CougtheCreator

1/24/23 3:50pm

Trying, or lack of, was his problem.

I never said bad. Not good enough to be #1 isn’t bad so you go to a place where

If Holker was good he wouldnt have ended up at CSU

I agree. We got better quality coming in.

Your view of how it works is pretty odd.

Hans Olson today said he knows 3 local kids who were told a school wasn’t

Seems to me that’s exactly how it works.

Except some of those stars are positive attrition

That’s fair, we won’t know for sure until next season

Ghost Pirate LeChuck

Brooks struggled?

RGGeemer

1/24/23 12:20pm

He kinda did to start the season

Ghost Pirate LeChuck

1/24/23 12:36pm

Most think Arod struggled, not understanding how to utilize Brooks.

3 of the guys mentioned in your OP are one-year guys.

The only guarantee you've got is the one year of a grad transfer. Everyone else

Kajdin

Are the 23 & 39 stars the "re-rankings", or is one/both of those their HS rating

Best Guess

1/24/23 11:16am

I’d love a WR, two LB and a safety rated in that vicinity to be really excited

There is still time.

And those in the portal now can commit at any time.

They’ve done well to fill some needs

Quality 👍 but quantity is meh at best for B12

Its gonna take 3-4 more classes. No one gets quality depth in 1 class.

USC (and Colorado?) would like a word

U$C and Dion Sanders... Great comparison for BYU...

The_Cuss

1/24/23 11:48am

Uh, maybe CU can get more than 1 win in a season first? Lol

mulletino

1/24/23 4:08pm

USC lost to Utah 2x, and lack of depth at QB and other positions is why.

Turnpike Lane

1/24/23 11:52am

USC must have improved depth to go form 4-8 to 11-1 in a year. Every team has

NYC and Japan

USC’s defense wanted a word.

They dont/won't have quality depth

We took a lot of hits too. Probably a net negative.

uteman13

1/24/23 11:24pm

. . . you left out the most impressive transfer of all: Jake Retzlaff

fruitless

1/24/23 3:10pm

He's not a transfer. He's considered a recruit because he came from a JC.

Rise Against

1/24/23 6:17pm

That's a bold prediction, why do you think he'll beat out Slovis?

antiyewt

1/24/23 8:14pm

Slovis had one good year at USC and it's been pretty mediocre since . . . .

fruitless

1/25/23 2:13pm

As long as you are so excited about ratings, Slovis is the 25th rated QB

Stalwartbob

Better news, 247 has rated 20th
