    Part of the reason he can never be completely trusted. I agree this comment is really stupid if true.

        Itys just recruiting. I really dont see what is so inflammatory about it. He has only so much to sell at BYU compared to programs like USC and he has to sell it. I think he probably believes it at some level, too. I would prefer that he not mention USC, but I really don't se hwy this is so horrible.
        PLesa excuse the tpyos.

            When a true genius appears, you can know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in a confederacy against him.

                That quote is fairly old and I actually think it was a shot at Uona Kaveinga. Who had committed to BYU and then backed out on signing day. It may have also been a warning to Manti as well who may have privately committed to BYU.

                    If that's the case, it's even more amusing for me but it really doesn't reflect well on Mendenhall. Would he feel the same if a kid renegged on a commitment to another school to sign with BYU? And I'm not talking about Riley Nelson. I mean a kid still in high school.

                        I agree that ultimately it is a pretty harmless quote, but he should not be naming other schools specifically when talking about a recruit that is "making a mistake." Bad for PR purposes.

                        It is one thing for Utah to tell its recruits privately that they will help beat "the team down South" or if BYU tells its guys face to face that they can help whip the Utes. It is another to tell the press, "I feel like X is making a mistake if he chooses a school like Utah." Just sounds weird.

                        Anyway, back to your regularly scheduled programming. Nothing more to see here.
