Perfect example and primary reason Arod needs to be replaced and it’s not

Das_Countach

Already his third school to commit to. Impressive.

JuicyJam

Using 247 ratings, BYU has a commitment from the #66 QB in the country

StantonMac

Dec 3, 11:54pm

…almost identical rating to both Zach Wilson and Jaren Hall…

Das_Countach

12:05am

And? That is completely irrelevant.

StantonMac

12:23am

Not any more or less irrelevant than your initial comment

Das_Countach

12:28am

It’s completely relevant to counter your assertion that ARod can’t recruit

StantonMac

12:33am

Teams can only offer one QB a class. Offering 2 means not all in

Bobmarleyjr

Arod is lazy. He needs to offer everyone 1 to 99.

sah22

Noncommittable offers?

I’m in full agreement that BYU needs better QB recruiting year in and year out but this kid isn’t the answer. There are

Zach Morris

12:06am

…I don’t know man, threw for nearly 400 yds, 74% 5TD 0int vs Corner Canyon

Das_Countach

12:11am

Fair point and normally a school like OU is a great barometer but I’ve seen them offer relatively low quality guys in

Zach Morris

12:15am

Yeah can’t stand that Venables giy

Cooouuugs

CC D is not that great.

fattycoug

No idea, but OU has a new OC...potentially tracked him at WSU.

Talking with Helaman - he never seemed like he was interested in staying in Utah

Im sure $$ was a factor as well &definitely something that is difficult for BYU

Das_Countach

12:51am

Kalani needs to change that mindset ASAP. Life is all about the Benjamin's

gopman

5:18am

That is mandate by BYU and the BoT

Schultz is back

9:18am

True, but there is something to it. I feel like there is a difference between

RoboKayne

9:25am

It's a fine line. BYU/Kalani have valid points. Culture, integrity, perception

Buster Scruggs

10:17am

I wouldn’t worry about this kid. He’s as flaky as the day is long.

Adwight

The same ARod that cooled on Isaac Wilson and decided not to pursue him, good choice.

TheLoneCougar

5:27am

I don’t think that’s true

All-American

6:21am

Im pretty sure it was the exact opposite, Isaac cooled on Arod, the confirmation

Das_Countach

7:23am

Do you have inside info on this?

niqmadu

Who cares either way. Wasn’t coming to BYU and nobody is convinced it

What is more important… getting big recruits or putting QBs in the NFL?

Pretorian

6:23am

100% agree. Of all the ARod critiques, QB recruiting and development might be the worst.

cscougar

7:25am

My kids go to Lehi & I have watched Jett play many times.There are better option

ElkhunterUT

6:49am

Wait isn't Nolan Keeney in that same class?

NGB

7:02am

A mid to low 3 star with a better rated QB in same class committed to BYU is

NYC and Japan

7:09am

Or another way took at this is that oklahomas recruiting is so bad that

niqmadu

7:33am

Just stop. Tell me that you don’t know the intricacies and nuances

Refugee

7:56am

Would you like Arod to put hand cuffs on the kid and bring him to campus by

Polecat

8:20am

Yea, with the reduced scholarship #s let’s fire our OC because he didn’t offer

BYU I Bleed Blue

8:30am

He recruited that big time ginger recruit that Alabama wanted. Didn't work out

boctabulous

9:03am

BYU is going to lose many head to head battles with SEC and B1G teams

reddead

9:16am

I don't know the Niu and BYU history, but I know Casuga was never a real target for BYU (ie he did not have interest).

Cougstreak

9:21am

Just sign Ryder Lyons and we are set.

Cougstreak

12:46pm

I agree with the premise but this is not the example you are looking for.

Lifer

12:10pm

...agree, Niu isn't the worst example, but this shows the scope of the issue

Das_Countach

1:00pm

Why is it so difficult to some to see Arod’s virtue? He’s been great

gocougs719

1:02pm

Some on here have a weird obsession with proving he stinks.

runnincoug

1:42pm

and some have a weird obsession ignoring his less than stellar track record

Das_Countach

1:46pm

to the contrary, I wasn't very optimistic about him before, but he's been great

runnincoug

1:50pm

"this year"? ...the year that defense & special teams scored 1/3 the pts? lol

Das_Countach

1:54pm

Yes, the year that he took a terrible QB, made him 3rd highest rated (PFF)

runnincoug

2:34pm

…Arod, the reason there ARE only terrible QBs on the team that he HAD to make

Das_Countach

2:50pm

I'm not sure we'll see eye to eye on this.

runnincoug

3:19pm

haha, that one cooked you. Your arbitrary reasoning won't back you out of

Das_Countach

4:18pm

I didn't concede anything. You're not really making sense at this point.

runnincoug

4:46pm

Oh it makes complete sense, and you know what I am stating is accurate, but

Das_Countach

4:55pm

No, I don't think you're accurate at all. But arguing with you any further

runnincoug

5:00pm

lol, then tell me why he didnt have anyone better to go than Retzlaff- simple Q

Das_Countach

5:08pm

Because recruiting isn't a draft. You don't just get to say "I pick you".

StantonMac

5:14pm

lol, so you don’t have a response for it either, I see 😂

Das_Countach

5:19pm

Honestly, it's a little hard to take you seriously when you started this

StantonMac

5:46pm

Look at the data. Then put in context. Then stop and think. Should help
