But how exactly is Clark hypocritical? Has he stated that he supports Ryan Smith sponsoring an athlete? Does he have the ability to prohibit Ryan Smith from paying an athlete? Also, how are BYU fans hypocritical in this? For supporting a booster paying an athlete to go to the school they support? Did they collectively say that they would never…[Read more]

Harding is over the line and an Assistant coach. It makes no sense. He was also co/OC and OC at one point. He is the Shrutest regional manager ever.

Explosive offense 😂😂😂

I agree, not a comment to get worked up over or be offended about. Making fun of a certain group of people is how it came across to me initially (which I didn’t appreciate), but I shouldn’t assume that was the intention. And even if that was the intention, whatever.

Will Ryan Smith be able to draft any BYU player that he funds with NIL?

His mom wrote this.

Reads like an efficiency report for a mediocre employee.

As long as it’s not Church money being used at BYU – and it’s not – then more power to them. Rumor has it that there are multiple billionaires supporting BYU basketball. There’s nothing hypocritical about it whether from the Church or from BYU.

At the point that I’m writing this, the U automatically accepts all students from the Canyons, Davis, Granite and Provo school districts who have a 3.5 GPA or higher at the start of their senior year.

Holy lipstick on a pig . . .

One factor I think is being overlooked.

Academics! What do I mean? College football/P4 status means an incredible amount of money is poured into P4 universities.

The academics and research done at many universities, including the University of Utah, experiences an incredible increase in funding. An increased draw for better quality faculty, and…[Read more]

Well, the issue there is that in the NBA there are a multitude of persons who are both smarter and richer than Smith.

Clark Gilbert is not paying nor is the church nor is BYU.

However, he DID make the statement when asked about NIL money. And he is a church General Authority.

The timing of his statement absolutely makes it relevant, and regardless of the fact that it is a booster (Ryan Smith) doing the paying, one cannot just disconnect Gilbert’s statement…[Read more]

I didn’t know Isaac had his own publicist.

Better yet, have the NFL pay for it since it is the organization that receives all of the benefits of free player development. I can’t believe how, in all of this, the NFL gets a free pass. Have each NFL team take a few college teams in its regional location and use them as farm teams in some sort of subsidized league along with the networks.…[Read more]

This just seems to explain so much:

Someone who is not in the program yet. I’m sure we’ll add at least two RBs from the portal.

It would be nice if Ryan Smith could make the Jazz competitive. It seems that his priority is BYU.

Agreed, as far as the lds church is concerned they aren’t doing anything wrong. Ryan Smith is just making an interesting financial decision.
