I was just saying that we shouldn't freak out about not signing a 4 star guy when our 3 star guys have done pretty awesome for us. Let's keep trying for the 4 star guys, for sure. But why look back in anger?

Sucks that there are two HIGHLY touted Latter-day Saint QB's in 2026

After BYU wins the NC, that may change.

... and BYU NIL contributions count as tithing

Crazy Joe Davola

Nah. Just add a line to the tithing slip for BYU NIL fund.

That is taking it too far. But BYU donations… close enough in my book.

What has A Rod done to make you think he could land a highly touted LDS QB?

BIG XII Coug

10/17/24 6:25pm

Jaren Hall and Zach Wilson both were drafted. <shrug />

ARod didn't recruit either

And that matters because? 6-0

But it enhances his recruiting pitch.

Arod was the QB coach for both Wilson and Hall, so definitely recruited them

Mabuhay Coug

10/17/24 11:37pm

Hall was signed and on a mission when ARod showed up. The OP isn't talking about coaching it's about recruiting

BIG XII Coug

10/18/24 1:29pm

Arod's QBs could have all transferred in the off season. Retaining players matters too.

He’s very good. I’d be very happy if BYU lands him

Not to worry. I think we can lure Ryder Burton back from WVU with a NIL bag

Who are the great LDS QBs right now?

Jaxon Dart, Nico Imaleava (sp?) and I think Sam Leavitt will become one also.

Well Leavitt not coming here makes perfect sense

Which 4 star qbs for Bronco panned out?

I never said any did, in fact I clearly stated “whether they panned out or not is a different discussion”. Just because
