If that were the case then it would be real easy to fix. It's hard for me to believe that the BYU football program couldn't generate enough money to be competitive even with smaller programs.

Why aren't the top LDS quarterbacks or other top quarterbacks choosing BYU

Lack of a dedicated competent QB Coach. AROD wants to be OC and QB coach.

JoBeck has become the de facto QB coach.

and yet ... he's put 3 QBs into the NFL. Seems to do a good job.

Tell that to the recruits.

BigHouse Coug

I'm sure he is... so brings us back to the question of why they aren't coming

It seems like something is going on though because as

Have any recruits told anybody they don’t think Arod can get them to the NFL?

It is insinuated that Zach told his brother that,

BigHouse Coug

Does Zach think he got there in spite of Arod or something?

Polecat

It does seem kind of ironic.

Beck did help a lot with technique but Arod schemed so well for zach

The biggest help for Zach in college was the OL that gave him all day to throw.

Yes but scheme too...arod showed him off differently then jaren and kedon

We’re a Jewish QB school now.

Sure, but even before nil became a big thing. Other schools were already well

If BYU is willing to drop $7-9m on a bball player

JoeExotic

Yeah, I’m sure Holmoe is like “Yes, give that basketball player millions but you better not be competitive with football

Money is no longer the issue.

Go on. Break that down for us. What’s he doing wrong?

Look at the offensive numbers and get back to me.

When NIL is handing out Ferrari's to stars it's hard to turn down

Was already happening well before NIL

you asked why now

cypresstx

I don't know how much NIL affects it today

Goliath

Very rarely in comparison

We aren’t the only ones throwing the ball anymore…my guess!

I agree. In the day, BYU was unique in its passing attack and Lavell was the man

YoungstownCoug

Even 15 years ago there were a lot more run heavy teams

BYU has four quarterbacks in the NFL right now.

I guess being on the practice squad or being on the shelf isn't inspiring

BigHouse Coug

#2 overall and $35MM is pretty good

The money is not bad at all, no argument there.

Hard to compete against the allure of the SEC and Big 10

I'm sure that donors are going to want to know the answer to that question

If they aren’t giving BYU a million per year for a QB then they are literally
