Cravens played at Boise State before transferring to BYU. Does

Boise State recruit & offer the same players we do?

Have there been articles the last 20 years discussing BYU competing with Boise State for recruits?

You can't refute my point that Boise State is a major competitor in recruiting. You haven't refuted any of the points I've brought up.

Thank you for playing & being a sore loser.

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

Very minimal if any

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Major does not mean minor which your examples are showing

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

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

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

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

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

I hope BSU loses by 50

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