Maybe he was one of those extra-devout guys who kept dressing as a missionary until he went into the high council.

So I guess Harbaugh visited this kid WHILE STILL ON HIS MISSION!

What kind of mission president would allow this? Why would the kid agree to this? Why would the parents allow this?

Horrible precedent. I hope the church drops the hammer.

Drops the hammer on what/who? This hurts nothing.

Kids mission is coming to a close and he is looking out for post mission stuff. This is no different than talking to admissions/department folks when trying to figure out what program they are trying to get into post mission.

Drop the hammer? What are they going to do...pull the kids TR?

I felt like there was always a little leeway for preparing for post-mission life. You could take time to register for classes, etc. This goes a bit beyond that, obviously.

No Gentry. He'll go to Michigan.

If I were in High School and had an offer and commitment to go play for BYU, and was then told I had an offer no more, I'd be devastated. Hopefully it wasn't a pulled offer so much as seeing other big names with whom he'd have to compete for playing time and reading the tea leaves.

He got an offer from Boise a couple of days ago. He will have some good options.

I believe it was more of the latter.

while I understand it, it makes me sad for these kids that have committed, to then have the offer pulled.

This is correct.

No idea. The speciation I saw was that with the quality of recruits getting better, and quality transfers and limited scholarships available, he may be a casualty of that.

This is correct.

Braxton Fely from Timpview decommitted yesterday. How big of a deal is this?
