Apologies, I intended something different. I think BYU lost both the Fanos (both highly recruited) partly due to Logan’s discontent.

Package deal can giveth and taketh, may be a good idea to keep Christian happy.

KD and Ezra play the same position. Both want starter minutes. KD is the better player. KD is younger. No brainer.

IMO

BYU MBB is legit. You have/will have talent that you never had before and coaching appears to be as good as you’ve ever had. You’re on a heater right now, will be a tough out for any team.

BYU FB was an anomaly in 2024. Here you are less talented than most if not all B12 teams you face, but well coached defensively and opportunistic (ni…[Read more]

I’m by no means a BYU apologist in any way, but we are exaggerating their NIL deal with Dybantsa.

Their donors are paying $3m to Dybantsa, not $8m or $7m noted above. Endorsement deals with Nike and Red Bull will pay him $5m next year.

Why is this an important detail?

1 – BYU’s coffers aren’t $7m to $8m deep for one player. Their buying power…[Read more]

Guillory is the highest rated recruit of the 2 FR, had multiple blue chip offers.

I put zero stock in the MW transfers. Why do we think backups from NM and UNLV will be more than backups on a P4 team?

Unless Guillory rises up, this is one man RB room. Kinda like last year.

Wrong brother, brother.

His endorsement deals are with Nike and Red Bull with Nike deal close to $4m.

Proud, there’s some clarification on Dybantsa’s NIL from BYU.

BYU donors will not be paying $8m in NIL, they will be paying closer to $3m. Dybantsa will be making the $5m balance through endorsement deals.

Mason Madsen is the other beneficiary of the coaching change.

In the 2 games since the change KD has averaged 16.5 ppg and 10.5 rpg. MM has averaged 9.5 ppg.

You and I had called out Smith here for grossly underutilizing these 2, primarily because they led the team in BPM or productivity, yet were in bottom half of team minutes.

KD finally unleashed.

Ludwig should have adapted his scheme to the talent and weapons.

I’ll one up you, can you imagine NJ and JJ running option as a QB and RB duo with either of them interchangeable at either position? Lord help me.

Instead we got 13 games of Bryson Barnes, runs up the middle into full boxes and the occasional double reverse in the red zone. But h…[Read more]

We would have to go on a hot streak just to swirl and you can’t go on streaks when you can’t win road games.

Good stuff. What is Dawes’ deviation.

My assumption is he has the most whiplash of any Utah player, 20 minutes one night, 2 the next.

Thanks Miami.

247 composite, popular opinion’s best recruiting rating source, has us #44 in composite avg talent score per recruit.

By same source and metric:
We were #36 in 2024.
We were #24 in 2023.
We were #36 in 2022.

By the numbers Mason should be taking these minutes. But that would be awkward for Craig because you know, you’re messing with family.

There’s retribution coming for Harlan’s sh!t fit. I don’t think that ended with the fine. Though there is less predictability than ever, I expect the schedule to be slanted against us (road game travel, road game opponent, bye week timing, etc).
