claw All-American

That would take hard work and is impossible to improve- just look at the basketball team

SUU has good potential as a feeder school for byu. Lots of quality athletes who want to stay closer to home and then hit

and who aren’t good enough for FBS?

Heard of Weber St?

A few every now and again is fine. “Feeder” school is a terrible idea

Talent develops everywhere and the star system made up by journalists isn’t infallible. 😉

Take some. A few. Feeder system is silly

G5 and FCS is a great proving ground for P4. So many kids out of high school don’t prove out even with the vaunted

It definitely happens. Far more undersized misses that never hit. Not enough to make it some kind of organized system

Video, highlights and measurables abound now

Super great point! 😕 Or maybe need to prove themselves and develop. You know like a ton of kids every year.

You can find a Garrett Bolles every once in a while.

Im fine with every once in a while. Having a feeder system is absurd

Ricks college was a feeder school. If this Jr. college thing

Aren’t we down to 1 JC in Utah and 0 in Idaho?

Dude came out of HS as a 6’3” 230 pound lineman. No wonder he was 2* recruit

Like Eddie Heckard & Jack Kelly?

warp

Dec 19, 7:09pm

Yep every FCS player are Eddie Heckard and Jack Kelley

Big12Yfan

Dec 19, 7:16pm

We don’t need every FCS player to be like them, just the ones we offer

The actual point is that talent develops all over the place. Many players in FCs are much more proven than a high school

The entire Indiana football team, cam skateboo

JOPE

Exactly those who are averse to FCs talent are averse to college level playing data

JMU is FBS

byuTX

Recently right?

They knew they were moving up. Give me another example of a P4 using an FCS school as a feeder. Not a good one like

byuTX

Dec 19, 9:42pm

Ok, add to SUU Weber+UTU+USU as great proving grounds for local talent to develop who want to stay close to home and get

GoodBetterBestBYU

Dec 19, 9:57pm

Why just limit it to those schools? I think it would be a mistake to not look there for some talent occasionally

byuTX

Dec 19, 10:38pm

I never said limit to those, there is a proximity and affinity advantage with those.

Exactly, Skattebo transferred from the mighty mighty Sac State!

He had multiple P4 offers including Cal and Rutgers

Absurd and obtuse. FCS players play in the NFL. Why would BYU ignore good talent

NYC and Japan

Dec 19, 10:28pm

I don't care that he is FCS, but my issue is that he is an interior lineman. BYU

Weylin moving to tackle?

That would be a poor decision

Leausa always played tackle before this season. Could go back to OT.
