they want to be able to redshirt him since Martin was RB1.

So, why wasn’t Haunga higher on the depth chart over Ropati?!

Because he's a true freshman who is learning the offense

Also, Ropati has not looked right. If you watch him pre- last season injury he

One of Arods lamest excuses. Play the talent. Especially at RB.

Especially as Martin was a true freshman last year and was in the 2 deep

Apparently ARod can't coach portal transfers and freshman

That. And HOPEFULLY cuz our opponents were easy. This talk of RS him make's NO sense. But the media claims it

LJ was a true freshman last year

We didn't have a reliable returner early last season, though. And Robbins got hurt in camp.

Considering BYU’s RB health history they need all hands on deck every year

Agreed but they get 4 games and can still redshirt.

Redshirting is dumb in the transfer portal era. You're likely just preserving

Coaches said they wanted to RS him this year. Injuries changed all plans

Zak

Which says a lot of things about our coaches. In a not positive way

Ropati is hard to evaluate because he is almost always injured.

Sep 15, 10:51am

Now compare how well the two of them know blocking assignments,

I compared. Haunga is still better than Ropati.

I swear he has the same body type and running style as LJ. When he came in I thought it was LJ

Coug

There is no chance Haunga is better than Ropati as evidenced by the fact

It’s the ARod way
