    I did say IF, but getting not only the #1 recruit, but a generational player is kind of a big deal for a school like BYU and portends a new competitive era.

    I put this in another thread, but it actually belongs here.

    Crazy, but should be worth it to help BYU become an elite destination for hoopers. He's a generational talent and BYU has big aspirations. If we get Egor Demin drafted in the top 3 in the next draft, then AJ the following year #1, then Kevin Young's NBA prep pitch solidifies and we gonna be a New Blood going forward.

    Wow. I'm sure Hill just got a big raise from BYU then. Not surprised Hill was their #1 target. I've heard from someone close to Utah State that there will probably be an announcement about Hill in the next days. He will get a promotion / upgraded title at BYU, so it's not just money that kept him here, but there's also still some possible dominos to fall if Kyle Whittingham retires, too. Drama may not be over.

    Just a reminder that Arkansas, who beat Tennessee, lost to Oklahoma State, who lost every conference game in the Big 12.

    Can confirm

    Utah State has been pretty good identifying up and comers that then get poached. Going with an older, retread coach is a different tack for them. Still, Bronco is probably a good get and fit for them and likely won't get poached. May be his last coaching stop. Glad Utah State didn't get BYU's DC, Jay Hill, who was in the mix. He's done an amazing job at BYU and was a former HC (Weber State).

    Some were predicting a BYU v Colorado matchup. Looks like that's out. Either Pop Tarts vs ACC or Iowa State for BYU.

    Stop making stuff up. We have a national fan base. Any game anywhere in the country we show up in large numbers.

    The Big 12 ended up with 4 teams tied at the top of the conference standings. And since it looks like only one B12 team is going to get a playoff shot, I'd rather it be settled on the field who gets to go.

    You did it the right way. I booked my flight (refundable) before the Kansas game. I fear I may have jinxed it for us. BTW, BYU would have packed that stadium. Tons of BYU fans in DFW. Lots that would have travelled.

    BYU just hired a GM for football. We hired one with the new mens basketball staff earlier this year. I know the bball GM reports to the HC. I think that's the same for football (HC announced it).

    For clarity's sake, let me summarize my recent points: If SMU loses in the CCG, BYU deserves to be in the playoff over SMU. I was asked why BYU is more deserving of getting into the playoff over Bama, which I answered. I was making a secondary point about the SEC not being all that and does not deserve 4 playoff spots this year while the Big 12 deserves only 1. I included BYU's recent historical wins over SEC teams as a point that BYU can compete against SEC teams, generally-speaking, and by extension I think the top of the Big 12 can compete with most of the SEC (Texas seems to be on another level this year, tho). The SEC usually has 1-3 elite teams each year, but beyond that is mid to bad. I do not think BYU is a better team or program historically over Bama.
  18. Crockett
    What was the spread before the Oklahoma game?
  19. Crockett
    The only reason Bama probably gets in is because of historical performance, because this year's performance hasn't been great. I wasn't moving goalposts, just making a point on the unfairness of the SEC getting 4 teams in as if SEC teams are so much better (they're not).
  20. Crockett
    You are not wrong. BYU should have handled it's business. What pisses me off is all the fart sniffing about the Big 10 and SEC getting 4 teams in over 1 team in the Big 12.
  21. Crockett
    Don't be such a dipshit. I already explained my reasoning vs Alabama. My original argument was BYU getting in over SMU if SMU loses in the CCG and then you slide in with akshually... Now you are moving the goalposts again and asking about BYU getting in over the CG loser, an argument I haven't been making. If ASU loses the CG they should get in over BYU due to H2H. With Iowa State, there's an argument to be made for BYU. I don't think the SEC is all that (and I definitely don't think the Big 10 is all that, although Oregon looks exceptional) and I think BYU can compete against any SEC team (I don't think we'd beat Texas this year). Every SEC team is beatable. GT took Georgia to 8 OTs. We beat Arkansas last year (and we were a 5-7 team), we beat Tennessee in 2019, we beat MSU in 2016, we beat Ole Miss in 2011. We lost to Texas last year, but you know the record before that with Taysom Hill. We've had success against the SEC.

    Well for starters, Alabama has 3 losses. They also got smoked by Oklahoma, a 6-6 team, and only scored 3 points. BYU beat the likely ACC champ on the road and its two losses are by a combined 9 points.
  24. Crockett
    And if SMU loses, then BYU would also only have two losses, but beat SMU H2H, so BYU would have an argument over SMU at that point.
