BYU Recruiting 2013

[MarkGrace]

Do we have a thread for this year yet? I looked around and didn't see one, and I know some '13 recruits are starting to come in.

Anyway, Keegan Hicks apparently committed today. Anyone watched him or know anything about him? Right now our '13 commit list looks like this:

Trajan Pili
Dallin Leavitt
Brayden Kearsley
Moroni Laulu Pututau
Keegan Hicks

Who do you think Dupaix is referring to when he talks about guys that came out and dominated and they didn't have scholarships for?

Chase Hansen. I know BYU feels like they missed bad on him. If the had any idea about the improvement from his jr to sr season they would have recruited him as a qb.

He came to mind, but I figured since they had in fact offered him that it was maybe someone else. My other guess was Lutui.

A friend of mine passed this article along to me. Doman is in American Samoa visiting all 7 high schools this week.

It’s not often that recruiting news hits on Saturday night, but Phil Ford did his best to change that earlier this evening. Ford used twitter to express his earnest desire to join BYU’s football program after being baptized a member of the LDS church about a month ago.

So who is he?

Ford is a 6-foot-6, 330 offensive lineman from Kansas City, Missouri who signed with Kansas out of High School. After failing to qualify academically he joined Iowa Western’s football program and redshirted this past season.

Since attending Iowa Western he’s maintained a 2.5 grade point average and is set to graduate this coming December. Kansas has maintained contact with other Big12 programs showing interested according to Ford.

Ford attends a ward that includes a lot of BYU graduates and they speak very highly of the school which has piqued Ford’s interest. One of the people he’s met is BYU transfer Jake Heaps who apparently still talks very highly of the program he decided to transfer from.

“Jake (Heaps) says that he misses BYU a lot for a lot of reasons and that it was very hard for him to transfer,” says Ford. “He talks about how it’s a great environment for LDS people and he really does miss a lot of those things about BYU.”

Ford sent off an email to the football program about two weeks ago and is anxiously awaiting word from the coaching staff.

“BYU sounds like the perfect school for me,” said Ford. “Everyone I talk to absolutely loves the place and now that I’m a member of the church, I want to go there and play football for them more than anything. I’m hoping that the coaches there get in touch with me and offer me a scholarship because it’s really the only school I want to play for right now.”

We’ll have more on Ford as this situation continues to develop.

Any chance Star's little brother doesn't ultimately choose Utah?

I really doubt it. BYU should have stayed on Star during his juco days. Damn we blew that one.
