As a non-local, what's the calculus behind the move from Lone Peak to Orem?

I have no opinion here, but that is the vibe at the school. Lots of bad views on coaching and losing kids.

It was pretty much the LP coach leaves or he does. School chose the coach

Historical take: DON'T get excited for a Burgess recruit.

Yes he was. IF we ignore the fact he was offered over Jaycee Carroll. Which was without question Cleveland's

yeah can't expect perfection. In the agg Cleve recruited well. Guys like...

The reason I don't forgive him for that one — is cuz he caved into local pressure to go w Sam

Burgess played HS ball in Utah Valley while Carroll was from Wyoming iirc?

I was thinking Idaho, but I think you're right. As I recall it, there was a ton of local pressure to sign Sam

At first glance it looks like Grandmas BYU offer….

I think Chris Burgess the player (REALLY rewinding the clock, mind you)

SinkingQuffa

Great analysis and insight

I think most of his hype was because he was an early bloomer. He had a mans man

I rewatched some of Chris's McD's AA footage — & he looks 18 going on 35. Dude did his 20s from Age 14-17, prob.

Yup.
