From strictly a BYU FB fan perspective, I’m confused why so many on CB are

I just want James Franklin to lose

Does that overpower your BYU FB fandom?

There is some but not that much crossover in recruiting. It is not like Utah and

I don't think BSU winning will have any effect on our recruiting.

Colorado

Dec 22, 12:22pm

Very minimal if any

johnnybyu

Dec 22, 12:23pm

Agree. Our rivals for top LDS rivals, are other P4s.

Everyman

Dec 22, 12:26pm

I strongly disagree. Many of our recruits (LDS & non-LDS)

Dec 22, 12:31pm

And when we offered Zach he turned down Boise and came to BYU. How many players

johnnybyu

Dec 22, 12:32pm

There have been several (especially non-LDS) recruits that we've

gopman

Dec 22, 12:46pm

The 3 examples you have given all ended up ay byu. Now with NIL BYU will lose

Dec 22, 12:52pm

Go back & look at 247 & Rivals the last 20 years & you'll see us

They are not going the way of Nebraska they are in the new pac 12 and will

I said "it would make recruiting easier IF".....

Utah and now ASU. And any big 10 and sec team if they are deemed far superior to

johnnybyu

Dec 22, 1:04pm

Utah yes. You forgot BSU. One can say Oregon as well.

gopman

Dec 22, 1:06pm

Yes Oregon which is why we don’t want big 10 teams winning

johnnybyu

Dec 22, 1:08pm

ASU is NOT in top three. BSU is. Go ask the experts.

gopman

Dec 22, 1:09pm

Please name the top 5 players that spurned byu for Boise? That is going to

johnnybyu

Dec 22, 1:20pm

I'll add USC. The four schools we've competed against in the last

gopman

Dec 22, 1:19pm

USC as well again our biggest concern is the big10 and SEC separating not

Dec 22, 1:22pm

Go back the last 20 plus years on 247 & Rivals & you'll see that we've had

Let’s hear examples and saying Boise is a recruiting competitor does not

johnnybyu

Dec 22, 1:38pm

I provided three examples of Zach Wilson, Jamaal Williams & Cravens.

gopman

Dec 22, 2:04pm

Those 3 all played at byu. Do you want to add Tanner Mangum?

johnnybyu

Dec 22, 2:14pm

Cravens played at Boise State before transferring to BYU. Does

gopman

Dec 22, 2:27pm

If they were a major competitor, you could list multiple contributors we lost.

johnnybyu

Dec 22, 2:34pm

Donte Deayon. Close friend of Jamaal Williams at Summit High in

gopman

Dec 22, 3:34pm

Major does not mean minor which your examples are showing

johnnybyu

Dec 22, 3:38pm

Does Boise State have a record of offering many of the same 3-star guys we

gopman

Dec 22, 3:42pm

You provided one example from 10 years ago. That is what minor means

johnnybyu

Dec 22, 5:28pm

Who cares? We care. I stated earlier that we've won some battles & lost

gopman

Dec 22, 6:04pm

If they continue to get to the CFP and winning games, they’ll start stealing

In my experience BSU are about on par with Wyoming fans. That's why I want them to lose.

Jimo Dashen

Dec 22, 12:26pm

LDS athletes are going to a ton of places other than Utah, USU, and Boise.

DudeBro

Dec 22, 12:38pm

I hope BSU loses by 50

Sircumference

Dec 22, 12:46pm

I think the narrative that the B1G and SEC are far superior to anyone else is worse by far for BYU than any minor

Colorado

Dec 22, 12:51pm

Bingo

The big 10 and SEC separating from everyone else hurts us more than a good

This.

Dec 22, 3:35pm

Correct. We not only compete with Boise State for LDS recruits but also

Does someone want to tell him we are now P4 and have more nil than many schools
