Man, really feels like we'll never land another blue-chip LDS QB.

Alert: I do not understand this. Are LDS QBs more expensive? or are you saying

The latter

The latter - unless boosters step up NIL.

Kalani said in his interview yesterday that they don’t recruit using NIL
BYUheaven
10/1/24 9:40am
And they won’t unless boosters step it up. BYU cannot control all NIL. Nor

Unless…well…I guess I can’t say it because we’re 5-0

Maybe we can monopolize the blue chip Jewish QB market tho

Our recruiting losses and misses are more of an indictment on ARod than his

i see no indictment necessary on ARod

We made his final 8, FWIW.
RoboKayne
9/30/24 7:36pm
what about the other like 10+ qb’s he’s whiffed on? Arod is a horrible recruiter

But how many has he put in the NFL?

He has put several QBs into the NFL. Hard to see why it's an indictment on Arod.

Depending on what blue-chip means, that's not really such a bad thing. Our high

Yeah, I don't really care if we get blue-chips or not, but looking at the QB

Jake is 5-0, FYI. Jake is in the QB room.

I wasn't a believer, but he is having a pretty good season
Jericho

And, he is a Junior. Think Sark. He, too. May get even better as a senior.

Agreed. Nice to have top recruits but most haven’t panned out

They are getting insane NIL money

If there are 4 blue chip LDS QBs, at least one will transfer to BYU

Not to a Big12 team, which isn’t much, but it’s something.

I think this one will 100% come down to nil $.
Dryfire
9/30/24 7:53pm
Yup. Solely a business decision for him (and most kids these days). I understand, but it sucks.

BYU BB proves money is no longer a barrier. Booster support is the issue.

ROI in basketball is always going to be better than in football

We need to add a QB coach with gravitas if for no other reason than recruiting
Lombardi

Ask yourselves this, is it a smart use of NIL resources to dump an insane amount
Dryfire

Next class, but if we can get Lyons, I'll feel better then
BackPacker
9/30/24 8:09pm
Same class unless Helaman graduates early. Both 2026.
Cougstreak
9/30/24 8:47pm
Oh ok. Well... Probably rather still have Lyons.
BackPacker
9/30/24 9:37pm
2026? There’s still plenty of time to recruit him.
Magneto

He is not as an army.

Didn't KS just say we will never compete for talent based on NIL $
Hinta

He said we don’t recruit based on NIL promises

According to family, BYU hasn’t reached out to Helaman in over a year.
USOblue

If that’s really true, there would have to be a reason why…

This is true, BYU stopped recruiting him long ago

LDS families are always going to have an excuse - never going to admit the truth

How the heck does a guy named Helaman not sign with BYU?!
Veep
9/30/24 10:33pm
There's a lot of LDS FB players but only 1 BYU. Also.. there's plenty of them that are given offers at other major..
greatbam

But his name is helaman

Because he is not their #1 target.

“Missed”…for now. Just like we “missed” on Kingsley, Puka, Samson, Taysom, etc
