He didn't say Heaps sucks. He said that he predicts he won't start at BYU. There are A LOT of factors (especially when you consider BYU's unique program and unique coach) that could be problematic for Heaps.
I would say that all those accolades you mention make Heaps all the more brittle. If he has a problem with the program he's got lots of other options. Perhaps he'll feel that is should get his own way or special exceptions because he is so highly sought after.
