Is Cam Cooper the biggest recruiting headscratcher in the last decade?
My wife’s friend coached at Lehi and they’re shocked and upset that BYU didn’t recruit him.

What about them? They have their own 4* QB seemingly locked down, which explains why they passed on him too.

Kellen Moore was the past decade, so i'll take that one.

yes. his GF was going to BYU and by all accounts he would have followed her.

I don't think our coaches could have gottten much out of Moore. I feel like they would have messed him up.

He was a 2* non-LDS from a small school in Washington. Cooper is a 4* LDS kid. Not even a close comparison.

Moore is the best HS QB I've seen still to this day. He was the best QB in

UW, Wazzou and many others didn't see it either. And again, not LDS. BYU rarely goes after non-LDS QBs.

Story on Cade Cooper transferring. He was neck-and-neck with Hall for a while.

From everything I've heard, the kid didn't want BYU or its culture.
