BYU moving in the transfer portal…GOOD! We need to take advantage of momentum

We desperately need some proven talent on the DL.

If we take them from Utah, we get the added benefit of taking them from Utah.

Always. Trenches are the difference between good and great.

12/11/24 10:25am

I think our WR group is in good shape: Marion, JoJo, Parker, Hagen, McKenzie

oxcoug

12/11/24 10:10am

I don’t think any of those are a solid 1 or even 2. They are solid 3s. We need 1-2 alphas.

Haysom Till

Chase?

RGGeemer

12/11/24 10:13am

Said he is going to go NFL, but that was a while ago.

Ycrazy

12/11/24 10:15am

Even Chase is a great #2. It would be awesome to have a healthy Puka for example

If he stayed ya he’d be a great Wr1 but he said he’s out last I heard.

I think Hagen will develop into a 1. Maybe not next year, but the year after

No doubt about it Hagen has WR1 written all over him. The problem is this poster sees these guys as they are and not as

12/11/24 12:59pm

They both had too many drops

12/11/24 10:04pm

None of those is a proven alpha though.

BYU '80

12/11/24 10:15am

Neither was Chase entering last season. And he is not as fast as any of them.

oxcoug

12/11/24 10:16am

His numbers from last year to this are very similar.

BYU '80

12/11/24 10:28am

Yeah - he committed in 2019. 2024 is his fourth roster year in the program.

oxcoug

12/11/24 10:31am

I would argue Roberts was an alpha in 2023

BYU '80

12/11/24 10:35am

He was on the 2021 roster. 2023 was his third roster year.

oxcoug

12/11/24 10:42am

Redshirted in 2021 due to surgery

Yes. Like I said, 2023 was his third year in the program. In 2021 he was in the

oxcoug

12/11/24 10:51am

Just saying he's obviously not going to be an alpha if he can't play. Silly

No one is until given the opportunity.

You can have a sense. Players don’t go from a few catches to alpha in

He had 22 catches and over 400 yards in 2022

How many programs have a proven alpha WR going into each season? Few.

LifeLongLakerFan

12/11/24 10:35am

I would say not a few. A decent number.

BYU '80

12/11/24 10:38am

I think you are over-estimating. And, I see similar potential in Hagen, Phillips

LifeLongLakerFan

12/11/24 11:09am

Parker Kingston too. I think JoJo will be a legit #1 and Marion is a legit #2

boctabulous

12/11/24 10:57am

By the time the spring portal hits, we will have a lot more players enter the portal from BYU than we sign

BYUMizzou

12/11/24 10:30am

yep. We need to sign starters, not depth. That's why Isaac W. doesn't make sense

runnincoug

12/11/24 10:37am

So you don't like any high school recruits? That's basically what Wilson is.

Lance71

12/11/24 11:23am

Except he only has 3 years of eligibility. And except we've seen him play in FBS football, and he wasn't good.

BYUMizzou

12/11/24 11:35am

Yep, he'd have 3 years and no redshirt left. Evidence would indicate he's QB2

runnincoug

12/11/24 11:52am

He does have a redshirt. He has 4 years to play 3.

Lance71

12/11/24 12:09pm

Right, sorry, I mean he wouldn't get to play until after his redshirt.

runnincoug

He was recruited by a lot of really good teams. If he isn't good enough, he

If he comes to BYU, that means the coaches disagree with you.

runnincoug

I hope we'd keep a spot for Kenny, the guy signed for this year's class.

runnincoug

12/11/24 3:02pm

Obviously. And my posting history would indicate I support the coaches.

I doubt we add another QB. With the new 105 limit we probably stick with 4 or so
