It's a larger purpose positive as these athletes have a good BYU experience and coaches continue to sign all the top BYU

I don't like NIL and what it has done to college athletics. However, in reality

Don't like it either but have to admit it seems to be leveling the field in FB & blue bloods hate it. That's good to me.

Be careful what you wish for might apply here.

Players keep saying the new guys are BYU type players. KY recruits BYU fit!
