He played behind someone that was better and younger. Totally get it that he

wants to play. Its a ton of work and time not to get a lot of action, especially when you are a high level recruit. It happens- a lot.

Was prob a hard decision to leave UM. Especially w UO/Wash/Penn St/OSU around, MICH prob wont win conf again while he was there. He will go somewhere and play immediately-good move.

Andrew Gentry is in the transfer portal

Martin Van Nostrand

He would be a great addition to the OL

JoeExotic

Dec 9, 7:21am

No he wouldn’t. He’s going to be a senior who’s seen heavy PT in exactly 1 game.

Is he coming off a lisfranc? He probably won’t be full strength next year if he

Low risk, high reward type transfer—why not try (as long as we don’t guarantee

His family was bitter towards BYU, don't know if they still are

True, but if we’re his best landing spot a grudge can be buried quickly

I’ve spoken with JT Gentry. He's not bitter. The Gentrys weren't impressed with

So apparently BYU is NOT your dream school.

If my dream school has a horrifically bad position coach, I'd do what he did. NOT go to Utah and go to a top brand P5

Curious if their assessment changed at all with TJ Woods coaching that position?

seacougar

Their assessment could only have improved immensely. It remains to be seen if it

Lot of good it did them at Michigan. He barely played

Stucoug83

Dec 9, 12:31pm

So that’s why he only played two games this year?

BYU '80

Dec 9, 12:36pm

My understanding. Wasn't healthy until late in the year. Did play a little each

Stucoug83

Dec 9, 12:38pm

he wasnt a starter. Did fill in/start injury 2 games but never 1 on depth chart

Dec 9, 4:16pm

Would've been the dude if not injured in fall camp

I know his family this is not true they are not bitter

Why?

kccougar

Dec 9, 7:32am

Because we're losing Etienne and Keim and you can never have enough good OL!!

BlueKarma

Dec 9, 11:51am

Maybe he goes to USU to team up with Bronco

Dec 9, 7:30am

Honestly a decent shot here. Family really likes Bronco.

HBCoug

Dec 9, 7:34am

Dude could have been a 4 yr starter here and played a ton of snaps.

Just another local player who flamed out at a blueblood program.

Wasn't he from Colorado?

It's not crazy for BYU fans to prefer he come to BYU instead of Michigan

Of course not.

I wanted him to come to BYU, but he was at Michigan, and won a national champ

Who's bitter? We all wanted him to come, and were disappointed he didn't, but

Agreed! Would be a great pickup

RockyBalboa

Hope we get him. He could fill the void that we have on our OL.

I would love to see him come to Provo - I'm a big fan

It's about freakin time, Big Guy. Now let's find your way back to that diner — to where you got led astray.

We need tackles. Ours are graduating. He could very well be a starter next year
