I'm even less surprised that you're not surprised. In fact, I'd be surprised if you were surprised. Not surprisingly, the whole matter is unsurprising.Originally posted by myboynoah View Post“There is a great deal of difference in believing something still, and believing it again.”

The past Sunday Hansen and his family met with Utah assistant coaches Norm Chow and Jay Hill, and everyone agreed that it was in the best interests of all parties for Hansen to compete for the starting job next fall instead of going on his LDS mission first.
He'll graduate from Lone Peak after the high school basketball season, and be able to enroll at the U. early enough to compete in spring ball.Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!

I know it's Satan's paper, but the Tribune makes it a little clearer.
Chase Hansen was originally planning to go on an LDS Church mission in July 2012. But the Lone Peak star quarterback has decided to delay his mission until January 2013, giving him an additional six months in the Utah football program."He's still planning on going on his mission in January, whether he wins the job or doesn't win the job. His mission is really important to him," Brian Hansen said."In conclusion, let me give a shout-out to dirty sex. What a great thing it is" - Northwestcoug

Sounds like the Hansens and the UofUtah are in damage control mode. Or is this the UofUtah's way of keeping this kid from straying during his two years away? What do the rules say if he hadn't enrolled and then left?Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!

Yeah, for sure. Best to lock this kid in before he gets any crazy ideas, like "following the spirit." BYU's lost too many recruits due to that kind of craziness.Originally posted by The Notorious J.I.C. View PostGive 'em Hell, Cougars!!!

Very simple, if they enroll for 1 semester, they would have to sit one year if the transfer. He was planning to enroll in the spring all along which would invoke the Reilly rule. The plan to play in the fall is new. But even if he left for his mission in fall of 2012, he would be protected from poaching because of attending this spring.Originally posted by myboynoah View Post
Personally, I think leaving in winter 2013 is about planning his return. Better to return in the winter of 2015, get spring and summer under your belt, to be able to compete that fall. Returning in the fall guarantees a lost year just getting back into playing shape."The first thing I learned upon becoming a head coach after fifteen years as an assistant was the enormous difference between making a suggestion and making a decision."

I can see that, but wouldn't he have been able to figure that out on his own? That the coaches were part of the discussion suggests he might really be able to compete for the starting QB job. Good for him, but kind of scary of the the UofUtah. If he ends up playing significant minutes, I bet he delays his departure for another 45 years.Originally posted by The Notorious J.I.C. View Post
Gary Crowton had a similar choice with Ben Olsen. Looks like the UofUtah is learning from that mistake.Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!
