    he's still pretty young and impressionable, as is his wife I imagine.

    If I were his parents I would try and persuade him to a school where he fits in a little better. Big difference between South Carolina and UCLA.

According to Harmon, this guy has been contacting teams to gauge interest in Jake. So there's a good chance these are teams in which there is mutual interest.
      Could any part of that be an NCAA violation? I know schools can't contact a player until he is released, but is the act of shopping a player an issue? I don't know what the rules are in this case.

      Perhaps a bigger question is, can he cut the apron strings? His parents have been a wrench in the gears for his entire career at byu. Even after his marriage.

        Ironically, Utah is as good a situation for him as he could find, with Chow, the qb spot wide open the next two years. But LDS/BYU culture is so toxic for the kid he has to leave the state to get a chance to succeed.

        His parents marched him right into it. I hope they just leave him the hell alone from now on. When he was 16 years old his mother was posting on BYU boards.

          Is this what you tell yourself to make you feel better about the fact that our sloppy seconds won't even consider your school?

            What I'm saying is demonstrably true. However, Heaps is leaving your school because you all will never forgive him for 54-10. He has to leave BYU because that happened. Everything I have ever said about BYU culture is more and more becoming empirically established. How's your Big 12 invitation coming?

              Clearly this is the only BYU game you watched all year, and I doubt you even watched that one.

                I think it's a foregone conclusion his mother posts here, too.

                  Posts? I doubt it. Reads? Maybe.

                        Hsaru is mom, i suspect. Tone Loc is a sibling/in-law. Has to be. Majority of posts are Jake related and passionate as only a fam member could be.

                          The Big 12 isn't that far behind the SEC when it comes to defensive speed. The "cornfed, thick-ankled LBs and DBs" are a relic and have changed with the times. Most of the Big 12 programs recruit defensive speed from Texas and other places south and west of the "corn belt".

                          Perhaps Jake should worry more about transferring to a program with a good O-line that will protect him.

                            I forgot about 54-10 fairly quickly, in part b/c there was no point in obsessing over it.

                            I don't dislike Jake Heaps. I just don't think he's got what it takes to be a horribly good D-1 QB. The coaching should shoulder some of the blame for his lack of development, but I don't expect that Jake will have a fantastic college career.

                            Between Berry and Heaps, I think we have learned that we should give a 1.5 star discount to recruits out of the State of Washington.
