Been one of the top couple of rated defensive guys, and wouldn’t have been surprised to see him ranked amongst the 10 in the article. Not even being in this list surprised me.

Only 1 of top 10 rated returners from the D, interesting it isn’t Pili or Wilgar

I thought so too - but if so then shocked he isn’t rated highly

It's only shocking to people desperate to excuse Tuiaki. Pili is a nice player,

No DL even close to sniffing that list is a huge problem. OL is legit. DL is the opposite of it.

I think we will be ok on the ends but I hope we bring in some interior lineman

So at what point are we allowed to criticize recruiting and player development?

ldssdl

Likely 10;) He gets a couple of Big12 years to prove what we already know.

Appears Tuiaki can’t recruit or coach. But untouchable so get use to it

Tuiaki is amazing. I sure hope Hawaii doesn’t realize how amazing he is and take him.

PFF grades

PFF grades are very incomplete and totally subjective. I guess they do empower

1/17/22 1:20pm

So what metrics will you allow us to use then when analyzing the defense?

Well let’s see, when Pili was in The best most physical teams on our schedule

Arizona lost to an FCS school and went 1-11, so holding them to 2.3 ypc on 35

So, don't trust a team of unbiased professionals grading out BYU players by PFF?

Running the ball like that, Utah should have blown BYU out. Why didn't they?

Here's what the PFF defensive depth chart would look like....

Some guys who play a lot don't even make the 2-deep in terms of grades

I don't understand why people pay so much credence to PFF? They are extremely overrated.
