Save room for running back Harvey La___ (sp) .

It it interesting that on some of these recruits you have to think what they will be like in 3-4 years even before they start playing. These are pretty early commitments.

Huh?

Uh, Bingham High is in South Jordan.
Hunter High is in West Valley City.
Why does the article have a WEST JORDAN start?

I always enjoy our new recruiting news... but we need to start recruiting for our defensive secondary as well, AKA speed.

Good pick up!

Nice

Nice commit all your guys now so that Utah can end up with a better recruiting class again. Go utes

Come On Harmon

have you looked at anything lately? i do believe BYU out recruited some of the top programs in the country this year. that includes the likes of LSU, Nebraska juts to say a few. Go look at the polls. BYU from top to bottom had a better class.

Nebraska is not a top school. LSU's class according to ESPN was ranked #8, BYU was not in the top #25... beat out by Washington, NC, Standford.

Recruiting means nothing when you are 3-2 in Vegas under Bronco with 1 win over a top 25 team (Utah @LES in OT this year).

Alive and well

I agree that we need to make the #1 recruiting focus defensive backs for the 2011 class, but there's always a need for more lineman. Strong depth in the trenches will always produce strong teams.

I also like the type of lineman that we are recruiting more lately. They aren't the "stereotypical 'fat slow' lineman" that people accuse BYU of having. BYU has recruited more offensive lineman that are mobile, good athletes for their size and that will block faster blitzes better.

Go Cougars! Nice work, keep it up.


It is winning that matters...

Get a clue. Who cares about the ranking of a recruiting class. That whole thing is a joke. If all that hype doesn't translate to winning on the field, it means nada, zip and that often happens. If you look back at recruiting classes of all schools with 4 and 5 star ratings you often ask "who is he" because his rating has meant nothing on the field or at college level. Personally, I like Whittinghams approach to recruiting...low key, no press conferences by players with all the hype. He just goes after people who quietly will get the job done. Obviously, it has shown on the field, particularly in bowl games.

RE: Anonymous

It's always an anonymous utah fan posting on a BYU article......like a little puppy dog nipping at the masters heals. Seriously, utah as never beat BYU in recruiting, Rivals is in disagreement with every other recruiting service out there, and you have lost 3 of the previous 4 to BYU, an undeniable trend there; translating that into ute language so they can understand....in the last 4 years, utah is 1-3 against BYU....it looks a lot uglier that way doesn't it ute fans.

Nebraska

Nebraska is not a top school huh... what are you, 10yrs old? Nebraska is one of the bluebloods of college football and has been forever. Wow...if only utah had Nebraska's tradition, that would certainly be saying something!!

Great points. Totally agree.

Hey Anonymous

get over it. BYU beat the whiny yewties and Yes the team from down south out recruited the team up north. Go Cougars!!!!!

hmmmm, wonder what their 40 times are? The only chance BYU has of keeping pace with TCU & Utah is to break from tradition and start recruiting Non LDS kids with speed. I think you know what I mean....

Hey Utes

Scoreboard! Wow, shortest arguement I've ever been a part of.

Keeping pace with Utah!??? LOL! Thanks, I needed the laugh this morning.
If BYU was stuck at Utah's pace, we'd have a lot to be worried about.
BYU is destroying Utah in the in-state recruiting battle year after year.
