  Sorry to see him go. Is this a sign he was behind in the depth chart from where he wanted to be? third or even fourth? Behind
  
  Bishop Hubert Vaughn?

  I have no info whatsoever… but I’m done worrying about transfers. It’s almost always a player that wasn’t working out for one reason or another. I highly doubt he transfers if he was going to be a difference maker this season.
  
  this one seems different because he played quite a bit last year, but I don’t think it will hurt the team.

  When is Nate Richie back? 23? Maybe he sees the writing on the wall with Ritchie and Bishop in the house.

  You forgot Clayton Isbel who is supposed to be a beast. As Yes Ritchie should be back for 23-24.

  It means he won’t be on the roster anymore.

  Don’t forget about Sione Vaki…back from his mission and had a great Spring. He’s a physical force that’s assignment sound. Bishop and Ritchie play the same position so there will likely be some movement down into the box based on which one gains the weight IMO…Cole goes pro after 23 though.
  
  Latu is a significant loss because he’s a really good player but Hubert clearly came out of camp as the 1 and Vaki/Isabel will fight for the 2. The only concern I have is RJ’s injury history but he deserves a break so I’m going to be optimistic about his chances this year. Also have 2 frosh arriving soon.

  Tabaracci entered as well. Longshot to get LB minutes

    Ugh. I just saw that on twitter. We are loaded in that room but Tabaracci had a chance to really contribute over the course of his career.

      Problem with Tabo is he’s behind 5 underclassman LB’s including 2 Freshman and a 3rd in Ethan Calvert if he comes back fully healthy which I think he will. Then you look at who we’re involved with at TE in this cycle and it’s gonna be tough for Tabo to carve out time without injuries ahead of him. They played around with him at H-back because he’s a great athlete but I don’t think he would have seen much early time here.

        What was Calverts injury? Seems like it’s all hush hush.

        Coach Swan talked about the fact that if he could Ethan “would take the brace off his knee right now and go.” Medical staff holding him back but he should be full go by Fall.

  How many of these end up at BYU and how much of this is being stacked vs outside tampering

  Somewhat surprised by this, but not worried at S.
