Call me crazy but I think Jake Wahlin

Would be a very solid transfer portal pickup. Lots of upside. Length, and starting to show more of what he could do. Give him a couple years in a Kevin Young rotation and IMO he’d be a solid piece. With the right staff he’ll just keep improving and get better.

He'd have to put on a lot of weight to play football. And at 6'10" he's probably

Schultz is back

Long snapper. It’s basically a handoff.

Ed "too tall" Jones was 6'9" and he had a solid career.

Why is Whalin in the the portal with Alex Jensen coming?

Pretty commonplace with coaching changes. See Hall and Saunders

I'd like to challenge BYU not to accept any transfers from other Utah schools

We can look for transfers outside the state of Utah.

....I'm pretty sure we're all ecstatic to have gotten Tanuvasa. And Carsen Ryan for that matter

Different sport. Utah has recruited well in football.

It was a bit TIC since this post was initially (mis)categorized in "BYU Football"

If Falsev and Wahlin want to be here we’d be nuts not to take them.

If KY wants him then I am onboard. Don't think we need half the board

I could care less where they come from so long as it helps BYU.

Heaven forbid we pick up another Jake Toolson!

Agreed. It sucks having Keita on our team.

From what we’ve heard, BYU will be looking at securing the best of the best

Mar 14, 12:42pm

He had his chance we can do better like this guy that we have offered

Normally yes, but as someone pointed out Bosko and Koz are very similar plus we

Those are 4’s Wahlin is a 2. Although similar in size.

I don't think he would see time next year. Even with Young playing a deep bench.

We need a replacement for Fous

A-Train

Mar 14, 1:46pm

Falslev would absolutely be a much better add than Wahlin. I don't know how you could argue otherwise.

May be their best defender too. Great two way player!

I imagine we’ll be adding 3-4 guys from the portal

RockyBalboa

Mar 14, 2:16pm

I prefer looking for potential starters than end of the bench depth. But

Boring

Mar 14, 2:20pm

Wahlin would push for starter minutes. He defends better than other options

runnincoug

He has 2 years. I’d guess we’d want him but I doubt as a starter and I imagine
