    Yeah, I think personnel was transformative.

    Whether it was Rising getting us into the right play at LOS or his making a play with his legs when plays broke down or TT’s elite vision that transformed Whitt and Ludwig’s predictability and conservatism into something more.

    Do we really believe that in 2021-2022 Whitt and Ludwig schemed and pla…[Read more]

  • Yo! First player win of Coach Jensen and staff…and IMO it’s a big win.

    Well done, excited for continued momentum and follow on success.

  • Yergensen replied to the topic Who is Byrd Ficklin? in the forum Football 2 months, 4 weeks ago

    I hope the offense will be transformed, but I think you’re giving Whitt too much credit.

    I’ll believe he has gotten out of his own way and the OC’s way when I see it. We will see it in scheme, we will see it in the “throw game”. True change specifically will be less predictable playcalling and game plan, increased WR use and targets, throwing…[Read more]

  • Would you have limited Van Horn’s minutes? KVH was a warm body defensively. Seems a bit like cutting off nose to spite face.

    KD was tops on the team all year in bpm or +-. We outscored the competition the most with KD on the floor, both sides of it.

    Can’t deny his scoring. Can’t deny his rebounding. Question his defense or defensive effort all y…[Read more]

  • Disagree, KD will score 8 pts a game if you play him 15 minutes a game like Smith did.

    Play him 25 to 30 minutes and he’s a 16/12 guy, a walking double double. That’s not just a guy and that’s not easily replaceable.

  • KD is player retention priority #1.

    I hope the new GM and coaching staff have time for KD retention efforts because player moves are already being made.

    This is why we pulled the trigger before end of season. We got the right coach and he is putting together the right leadership team. However, they still have commitments to their previous…[Read more]

    Guillory is explosive, Bray is quick.

    Guillory has a highlight or two where he waits for a hole behind his line and goes from almost standing to gone.

    I think this is what Georgia, Ohio St, Texas et al see.

    But, I think we saw an overlooked playmaker in Bray and stole him.

    Both could be really good for us. Hope they stick with us and us with them.

  • If I understand it right, BYU’s roster size is significantly over the limit and they’re having to shed players. Doesn’t mean they can’t/won’t find a scholarship for talent.

    Anyone know what our roster situation is? Proud is right, we need LB talent like this with Damuni leaving after this year.

  • Yergensen replied to the topic Hunter Andrews in the forum Football 3 months ago

    Would you rather the talent you just described getting 10-15 touches a game (RB) or 3-5 (utility or TE)?

    And isn’t NJ our utility player? How many utility players make sense?

  • Yergensen replied to the topic Hunter Andrews in the forum Football 3 months ago

    Parker is the one established talent in the room, just like MB was last year. Beyond Parker we have two RBs who were backups on MW teams and unproven freshmen.

    So, how is this year’s RB room any different? And no, MB wasn’t “injured a lot” last season. Where are you getting that from? MB went for 1,000 yds (more than Parker btw) against stacked…[Read more]

  • Yergensen replied to the topic Hunter Andrews in the forum Football 3 months ago

    TE is not the position for him in this offense. Our RB room in its current state is no better than it was last year, why is Andrews not part of that mix? We need talent at that position.

  • Taylor let go for misconduct. Two different investigations that he appeared to survive. Committed to do better last week following the most recent investigation then Andrew Luck, Stanford Football GM, dropped the axe today.

    Taylor fired

  • Apologies, I intended something different. I think BYU lost both the Fanos (both highly recruited) partly due to Logan’s discontent.

  • Package deal can giveth and taketh, may be a good idea to keep Christian happy.

  • KD and Ezra play the same position. Both want starter minutes. KD is the better player. KD is younger. No brainer.

  • IMO

    BYU MBB is legit. You have/will have talent that you never had before and coaching appears to be as good as you’ve ever had. You’re on a heater right now, will be a tough out for any team.

    BYU FB was an anomaly in 2024. Here you are less talented than most if not all B12 teams you face, but well coached defensively and opportunistic (ni…[Read more]

  • I’m by no means a BYU apologist in any way, but we are exaggerating their NIL deal with Dybantsa.

    Their donors are paying $3m to Dybantsa, not $8m or $7m noted above. Endorsement deals with Nike and Red Bull will pay him $5m next year.

    Why is this an important detail?

    1 – BYU’s coffers aren’t $7m to $8m deep for one player. Their buying power…[Read more]

    Guillory is the highest rated recruit of the 2 FR, had multiple blue chip offers.

    I put zero stock in the MW transfers. Why do we think backups from NM and UNLV will be more than backups on a P4 team?

  • Yergensen replied to the topic FOOTBALL in the forum Football 3 months, 2 weeks ago

    Unless Guillory rises up, this is one man RB room. Kinda like last year.

  • Wrong brother, brother.
