When Will Hammond committed to Texas Tech he was rated an 87 with mostly FCS

This is the perfect no win guy for BYU

Indy Coug

May 1, 1:24pm

Huh? He had all kinds of offers. Instead we end up with garbage QBs.

HairyCougar

With fans like this... um, guy, who needs uu fans?

Benfica1

May 1, 1:43pm

Pretty sure Hairy is not a BYU fan. Definitely no evidence of Hairy fandom on CB

It's obvious that he's a troll – and getting a reaction is his drug.

"he committed to Tech over offers from UTSA, Incarnate Word and Tarleton State."

Wow, those are all kinds of offers!

May 1, 1:55pm

Did you see the offers that came?

Soupie

May 1, 2:03pm

What does that have to do with it?

HairyCougar

May 1, 5:27pm

It means he was already off the market when he “blew up.”

Soupie

May 1, 6:42pm

He absolutely wasn’t off the Market until BYU repeatedly snubbed him.

May 1, 6:49pm

Wow! He had already committed to TT when his recruiting took off-- with or without BYU's interest.

Soupie

May 1, 6:55pm

Stop. You don't know what you are talking about.

HairyCougar

May 1, 7:32pm

Yes. Stop. What is the point of rehashing this so feverishly now? Is there something you're so desperate

Repeated failings by ARod....must recently by the news of the Burton implosion

Burton left yesterday, Mrs. Roderick. Your husband stinks.

So ARod whiffed? You are making the point.

Arod should just be better at evaluating QB talent

CaliforniaCougar22

May 1, 1:48pm

I consider myself a semi-intelligent football fan and I mostly ignore recruiting because I assume the skill set

SaturdaySpecialDay

May 1, 1:55pm

I mean the QB we got, Lugo, was originally committed to UTSA

Coug

May 1, 2:09pm

...or offer him when the big schools do and be THE ONE. He would be in Provo.

This narrative breaks down when you look at who we actually did sign. If the

Hammond was big time recruit. BYU chose Wilson over Hammond. Whiff

johnnybyu

May 1, 4:50pm

He was good enough for Oregon, Texas A&M, Penn State, Texas Tech, Tennessee,

TexDaddy

May 1, 8:20pm

He became a big time recruit. He was not a big time recruit when he chose Tech

molodyets

May 1, 8:23pm

Yeah, but not “everyone” had him come and stand out at their camp and express

ARods contact came a year after everyone else....

Did they just not offer, or did they not really talk to him. Recruit guys, be

May 1, 1:38pm

They didn’t even recruit him. They had their reasons don’t know if they were

May 1, 7:06pm

If only we all had people defending us like those with Hammond and Holker.

Soupie

May 1, 1:43pm

Ok but the standard excuse for Arod defenders here is that Will Hammond

CaliforniaCougar22

May 1, 1:46pm

No. The excuse is there were higher rated QBs on the big board and didn’t chase

donnerstag

May 1, 2:09pm

That’s not the excuse people have been giving me.

CaliforniaCougar22

May 1, 2:14pm

Yep story keeps changing - reality seems BYU picked Wilson over Hammond which I

johnnybyu

May 1, 3:09pm

It’s possible that he was never that interested in BYU

donnerstag

May 1, 3:32pm

Its more likely Wilson's were promised only one QB would be offered and BYU

johnnybyu

May 1, 4:31pm

Probably true, but it’s unclear how receptive Hammond would have been anyway

donnerstag

May 1, 4:34pm

What was clear is Isaac wasn't going to be Zach and would favor Utah if he was

johnnybyu

May 1, 4:35pm

ARod took his shot and whiffed

donnerstag

May 1, 4:37pm

Exactly which is why the revisionist story of Hammond not wanting BYU or not

johnnybyu

May 1, 4:47pm

Bro why keep saying that? He camped there EVERY YEAR of his young life.

TexDaddy

May 1, 4:36pm

Does everyone who camps at BYU have BYU as their #1 choice?

donnerstag

May 1, 4:40pm

BYU absolutely was his dream school. BYU showed no interest, his dream changed

yet...going forward that will be the frequent narrative on CB. "Arod whiffed"

icecougar

May 1, 2:56pm

Which isn’t incorrect, given that we don’t appear to have anyone better than him

russkiejedi

May 1, 3:34pm

Yet, he did whiff....AGAIN

HairyCougar

May 2, 1:52pm

We knew Hammond was a stud QB before the TT commit. Reality is BYU chose Wilson

johnnybyu

May 1, 3:13pm

The real tragedy is Hammond camped at BYU multiple times, and BYU still missed..

slatecoug

May 1, 3:17pm

Or BYU assumed they could offer him at any time, even late, and he'd take it

CameronG

May 1, 3:22pm

No as have posted 4* QB don't want to commit with other 4* QBs the same class.

johnnybyu

May 1, 4:34pm

...this.

TexDaddy

May 1, 8:22pm

Yeah... no. Hammonds first 2 offers, sure were Incarnate Word and UTSA, he was offered by Texas Tech like 2 days later

Coug

May 1, 3:29pm

Correct

johnnybyu

May 1, 3:49pm

Correct, except the recruiting and the miss was all on ARod

slatecoug

May 2, 12:18am

My only argument is we need to be offering LDS guys if possible.

I don't think TT saw something BYU didn't, BYU just hitched its ride to the

Well said. His roommate at TTU is LDS long snapper Rylan Vagana from Mater Dei.

I'll say it again... This season will only be worth it if changes are made at seasons end...

Coug

May 1, 5:00pm

Except he camped at BYU won Camp MVP and called them before he committed to tech
