Alum, alumni, etc. are generally inclusive of attended, but not graduated

Alumni

Alumni (sg.: alumnus (MASC) or alumna (FEM)) are former students or graduates of a school, college, or university. The feminine plural alumnae is sometimes used for groups of women, and alums (sg.: alum) or alumns (sg.: alumn) as gender-neutral alternatives. The word comes from Latin, meaning...

Would CB consider Dallin Holker a BYU alum? I for one am rooting for him.

Was he the kid who did the Titanic king-of-the-world maneuver from the bench?

Sep 5, 6:48am

That was Dallin Leavitt

trom2foot3

Sep 5, 6:50am

Ah. Thanks. Any reason I should care any more about this Dallin than that one?

Sep 5, 6:52am

Nope. He and his dad were kind of divas when they left

trom2foot3

Sep 5, 6:54am

I mean they were, but rightfully so in hindsight

andrewg3

Sep 5, 9:28am

No. That was Dallin Leavitt.

IdahoCoug

Sep 5, 6:50am

Would he?

Is Puka a Washington alum? No. There is your answer.

spidercoug

Sep 5, 6:50am

Something in between yes and no.

Yukon

Sep 5, 6:51am

Yes. After Bernard and Leavitt, we stopped excommunicating. Even for Hookers.

bruincoug

Sep 5, 6:54am

Hookers? Did I miss something?

thewaterboy

Sep 5, 6:55am

He got Craig James' attention

Blue Ridge

Tennis rackets allowed on campus again

bruincoug

Sep 5, 7:01am

Wait, we don't excommunicate hookers?

2FarGone

Sep 5, 7:30am

Nope. Bring em back to church

bruincoug

Sep 5, 12:04pm

The answer is no

cambo

No, no and no. Quit on your team mid season and don’t let the door hit you in the backside on the way out.

Indy Coug

Sep 5, 6:56am

This 'quit on his team' thing is overplayed. We don't hold Kingsley or Bagnah to the same standard

krindorr

Sep 5, 8:00am

Bagnah had two torn Menisci. He didn't quit.

spidercoug

Sep 5, 8:08am

You're talking his 2023 injury, correct? Not him leaving Boise St mid season in 2022

krindorr

Sep 5, 11:16am

With players changing schools every year, we'll see former players care less

thewaterboy

Sep 5, 6:57am

LDS Philanthropies certainly will when they’re trying to fundraise.

scootsy

Sep 5, 6:58am

He not only quit on his team

TheHop

Sep 5, 7:02am

I still think he made a big mistake quitting and leaving the team.

JuicyJam

Sep 5, 7:16am

I agree he made a big mistake but so did the coaches choosing Rex over Holker

johnnybyu

Sep 5, 7:40am

I approve of this message.

Wise One

Sep 5, 9:02am

Would he be a pro if he had stayed at BYU? The answer is no, we didn't utilize

Magneto

Sep 5, 7:57am

Sure he would. He was an UDFA

JuicyJam

Sep 5, 8:03am

And what happened to Issac Rex the guy that was ahead of him? If he wouldn't of

Magneto

Sep 5, 8:09am

Rex got hurt badly and was never the same

cruiserhead

Sep 5, 8:15am

He was still the starter over Holker. Holker was a Mackey finalist at CSU. Plus

Magneto

Sep 5, 9:35am

Yeah disagree. He still played plenty and would have have the same measurables.

JuicyJam

Sep 5, 8:38am

Well you’re wrong. Going to CSU gave him a highlight reel something BYU coaching

Magneto

Sep 5, 4:12pm

Since he is Taysom’s backup at TE, no. I want all Taysom 24/7. No Holker.

DirtyWater

Sep 5, 8:01am

I didn't think about this. I'd normally say Taysom can't possibly play ever down, but is Taysom.

TRUE_BLUE_COUGY

Sep 5, 10:38am

Yes. we 1) underutilized the TE position, and 2) played an inferior TE out of

No but yes for me

I liked him. Heck of a player and he deserved to be on the field as a

MHOP

Sep 5, 12:41pm

RM and I am rooting for him. Not as a BYU alum. He changed that when transferrin

Big Daddy D

Sep 5, 2:25pm

Definitely No.

kahuna

If you attended BYU then you're an alum. BYU certainly treats you as one
