Feel free to go count them
05- Fanene, Pouha
07- Soliai
09- Kruger
13- Kruger, Lotulelei
18- Fitts
So that's actually 7 (not the 6 I said). But not as many as you are thinking. Quite a few made teams as undrafted players though.

Any one else get giddy each time we add to our OL?

Good post, and I 100% agree.

Same with the DL. It is the recipe for us to be competetive IMO

Agreed

Well said. O-Line and D-Line was really neglected under Bronco's last few years
Richbyu
7/17/19 10:22am
Yet for all this supposed neglect Bronco had no problem putting up 8 and 9 wins

fill your schedule with a lot of San Jose St, Idaho, Idaho St, NMSU, UConn, etc

We lost to San Jose state. 🥺
PessimisticCB
7/17/19 6:54pm
And lost to UMass (at home) under Kalani. Neither is/was immune from an occasional terrible loss.

KS’s sample size too small to say that
Pretorian
7/18/19 7:05am
it's too small to say how BIG of a problem it'll be for him, but it's definitely large enough to see a few bad losses
SingleStrapBackpack
7/18/19 11:48am
Yes. The San Jose State team that ended the season 11-2 and ranked #21
BeardedSpock
7/17/19 7:33pm
You do realize we still play a lot of those same teams, right?
BeardedSpock
7/17/19 7:35pm
Yeah. He got out just as the cupboards were about to be empty
Richbyu
7/17/19 9:46pm
I know it makes you feel good to think that, but it's not anywhere close to true
BeardedSpock
7/18/19 9:08pm
You’re totally right about Bronco, but not about KS, sample size too small and
Pretorian
7/19/19 6:36am
Here are the facts. I repeat. Bronco failed the OLine big time, before he left
Richbyu
7/19/19 11:06am
You’re missing the most important fact....
Pretorian
7/19/19 1:08pm
O-Line depth issues all came home to roost right about the time Sitake was hired
Richbyu
7/19/19 1:50pm
The bigger problem was strategic on O-line recruiting/training. They wanted

Grimes is such a good coach. Quality recruits know that about him.

I am so glad he has so much experience as OL coach.

Mo is an excellent lineman too.
cougarmanguy
7/17/19 10:19am
when was Gentry supposed to announce his commitment again?
Mayor of Cougartown
7/17/19 10:21am
He likely won't commit until January/February now
donnerstag
7/17/19 10:29am
so ND has fallen off the list then.
Mayor of Cougartown
7/17/19 10:31am
ND wasn't in his top 4 in his last interview
donnerstag
7/17/19 10:41am
Yes. Bronco's poor recruiting of the O-Line killed our program for a few years.
Richbyu
7/17/19 10:21am
Makes me wonder how much of that was on Weber though
ManicBlue
7/17/19 1:21pm
It was on Bronco.
No touching
7/17/19 4:15pm
Sure, but things did start to improve after 2J came along. Not enough, but
dilbert
7/17/19 4:44pm
2J recruited De'Ondre Wesley, BYU's first NFL OL since the previous decade
icecougar
7/17/19 6:31pm
2J had to get transfers from SUU, our OLine was so depleted.
Richbyu
7/17/19 9:47pm
So winning 10, 8, 8, 8, 9, and 9 games a season is now "killing a program"?
BeardedSpock
7/17/19 6:05pm
Try and at least use logic.
Richbyu
7/17/19 9:49pm
I thought a G5 conference was where BYU should be? Now I’m hearing
Blue2thebone
7/17/19 10:19pm
I don’t follow your logic bro, making the statement that Bronco had a very good
Pretorian
7/18/19 7:08am
Amen, Amen, Amen. Games are won and lost in the trenches. (And QB play)
CObluezone
7/17/19 10:25am
And CB play. And linebackers. And...
TailgateU
7/17/19 11:27am
If your Dline can get pressure, you don't need great CB. (Only serviceable ones)
CObluezone
7/17/19 11:37am
YES! the game is won or lost in the trenches!
Iki_Balam

Its really exciting and encouraging that we will soon most likely have our first

Are you sure Utah has only had 6 DL drafted in the past 14 years? That seems WAY low to me.
SingleStrapBackpack
7/17/19 12:33pm
My thoughts exactly
Pretorian

Rise Against

Nah, I don't care nearly enough to spend time looking it up. Just seems like way more than that 🙂
SingleStrapBackpack
7/17/19 2:10pm
Aren't you at least missing Nate Orchard? Wasn't he a pretty high pick?
SingleStrapBackpack
7/17/19 2:12pm
He was drafted as a linebacker
Rise Against
7/17/19 2:27pm
C'mon, man. He played DL for Utah. He was listed as a DE in the combine. And he currently plays DE in the NFL.
SingleStrapBackpack
7/17/19 2:41pm
Fine, add him if it means that much to you.
Rise Against
7/17/19 2:49pm
Reading your post, one gets the impression BYU was putting up losing seasons
BeardedSpock
7/17/19 6:09pm
I think about the 2pt try in the 2016 Utah game. One of our OL's whiffed...

I have actually been watching a lot of games lately. I watched
PessimisticCB
7/17/19 10:50am
Watched 83 UCLA. Our o line was won that game.
cdr88
7/17/19 11:08am
Like 1983?
PessimisticCB
7/17/19 11:12am
Hhhwhat!!!!! Is that optimism from mr pessimisticCB, that makes me 😁

Oh stop, I give optimism all around. I swear I am the only

I like Kalani and the staff.

Me too 👍🏼

You two are my best friends now
PessimisticCB
7/17/19 5:34pm
Sounds good, I knew you couldn’t be that pessimistic
Pretorian
7/17/19 5:36pm
Or could I?
PessimisticCB

Giddy? No. But, very pleased.
