Quite frankly, I'm very disappointed with some of your remarks. Let me ask, how many of you criticizing the Fano family and attacking their character know any of them personally? Let me tell you I do. I know them, including their dad, and they are great men; men of high character. They have legitimate gripes with how some things went down at BYU.

It's not a secret that BYU did not do a good job with recruiting and how they handled other matters a couple of years ago. It looks like things have improved dramatically since then and that is good for BYU. But no one can deny that there were big time issues with members of the former staff and the Fanos aren't the only ones that had problems with that.

Some of you just can't seem to fathom that anyone would criticize BYU. BYU is not perfect and calling out issues does not make someone a bad person. So while some of you pile on, I will be one who stands up and vouches for the character of these young men and their father.

Also keep in mind that there is a Fano currently on the roster (TE Nason Colemn - mom is a Fano), there is a Fano (Sale Fano) committed to BYU and another cousin (Adney Reid) is also committed. Some of you going after former recruits, players or their families is just a bad look and needs to be called out.
