He was a Utah kid his whole life. He thinks he can learn under Rising...
then take over in 2025. Utah is a national brand. Utah's coaches are better... and the list goes on and on.

BYU and Isaac Wilson

He wanted to forge his own path. Didn't want to follow Zach. A reasonable choice.

Well we can all hope he loses every game and throws 3 INTs a game with Utah.

If he stays, he will experience the transition to a new head coach- I am sure

Hard to do that while playing safety

“Hope” is not a strategy.

#2 NFL draft pick seems like a pretty dumb path to follow. Smart thinking.
COACHdrn
12/20/23 12:24pm
Yeah would suck going to the Jets
LakeshowCougs
12/20/23 12:26pm
Should NFL teams be penalized for failing to improve after getting top draft picks?
Bobber
12/20/23 1:51pm
That is a fair point
LakeshowCougs

Because that's how actual parity is created.

Not picking BYU was wise. Picking Utah was not wise.

He didn't want BYU. Not much you can do about that.
AltTabbins
12/20/23 12:22pm
And with all the older brothers choosing BYU Utah was a nod to his Dad as well.

Other than Zach.. the Wilsons have not thrived at BYU

His mom's best friend is a ute fan.

Not sure BYU ever had a real chance. The kid went where he wanted to go.
Hoopster
12/20/23 12:23pm
He preferred Utah over BYU
Archaea
12/20/23 12:23pm
So did Zach
Huge Manatee

Had the Utes shown much interest in Zach, he probably would have ended up there.

Utah decided to go after Jack Tuttle instead of Zach. Worked out for us.

He’s from a Ute family, Zach would’ve gone too

Zach Morris

You might be correct but...

He completed 47% of his passes in that game.
molodyets
12/20/23 12:59pm
That’s a good point. His game against BG was pretty impressive. It’ll be interesting to see how he turns out given all
Zach Morris

Jaxson Dart and Devin Brown haven't had too much trouble adjusting...

They also didn’t have older brothers pave the way and gift them hype before it was ever earned. Both played on talented
Zach Morris
12/20/23 1:40pm
I believe this is unfair to Isaac
Homo Erectus
12/20/23 1:58pm
Agree to disagree as I concede you make some good points — however, I would almost never put “Unfair” and Isaac Wilson
Zach Morris
12/20/23 2:20pm
Haha yeah Unfair was probably the wrong word to use

Out of all those receivers Jerome Myles is the best. He was hurt most of this

Jerome is a sure get for Utah (albeit he’s only a jr) but right now it doesn’t

Like you said NiL plus the fact that he’s a Ute fan

You're looking at it wrong. BYU didn't lose out on Isaac, they turned Zach.

Sports is a missionary tool. The church should fund as much as is needed.

I would tend to disagree, but much better use than letting it sit in stocks IMO
Plato

The Wilson family are Utes the only reason we got Zach was bc Kyle was interested
BYU Grounds
12/20/23 1:15pm
Because he wanted to go to Utah. BYU can’t get every kid and the hand wringing

This is a hot take that I haven't heard. Who is running the NIL program now?
BYU-Laie
12/20/23 1:48pm
Fraser Bullock is on the board. That tells you the level.
molodyets
12/20/23 2:20pm
Fraser is legit. I know him from Omniture days. This is huge.
DazeofBlue

Is Fraser Bullock a BYU guy or Utah guy?
Bob Vance

Huge BYU. One of the founders of Bain. COO of the 2002 SLC Olympics. CEO in 2030

Cool. But he wasn’t a founder of Bain.

He was a Utah kid his whole life. He thinks he can learn under Rising...

His whole life? He was 12 when Zach started at BYU.
CaliWG

His dad was still a Utah super fan during that time

His Dad also played for the U. His uncle is a massive donor.

Probably with the extreme fans. Too much data. CFP, AP rankings, computers, recruiting. Where BYU fans underestimate
