Improvement/ progress after spring camp. If Hillstead is better than Retzlaff and Bohannon then it was a good move. Pretty sure Hillstead isn’t nor will be a top tier QB to lead BYU to 10 wins but maybe a decent stop gap to that top tier guy.

Baylor is lesser than BYU?

Honestly, right now, yes. They are a mess. Nicer stadium though.

They have been just as bad for two years now.

Alan Schaefer

When he left they were Sugar Bowl champs right?

Charles Darwin

He didn’t leave. He got the boot.

Alan Schaefer

Apr 25, 2:32pm

So they were better when he was there, and then got worse when he left.

Sure he lost his job but now you are obfuscating

Fine. True. Correction: Two programs, one good, one bad, didn’t want either

I wouldn't agree that Pitt is a bad program either. They also made a NY6 game in

He put up bad numbers and they had a bad record. Like with us.

He did have poor numbers there

They were just talking about him right now.

If he is the best we have, then we are screwed in the Big12...just sayin.

He's listed at 5-10? For a QB?

Bryce Young went #1 in NFL at 5’9”, Kyler Murray #1 at 5’10”, AZ’s Fifita 5’9”

He was also playing at a very depleted Utah state. They had a rough time last

Really sad for BYU if that is true. Fallen so far.

What has Hans said about Jake Retzlaff? Just curious....

I haven't heard Hans be this positive about any of the current QB's.

Said he likes his moxie but he’s prone to mistakes

Love it. He proved he could play D1 last year. I'd bet he redshirts this year and then you have an interesting

Hillstead was my son’s 7x7 QB. He’s smart, decisive, has a great arm, coachable, and fast.

He also did that with a pretty immobile leg. What made him so dangerous
