BYU Recruiting

I think he is wondering why ASU (a P5 school) would be wanting to use a scholarship on Conover...

Correct. Didn't know that about his HS coach. Makes sense.

[LiveCoug]

No. His high school coach in on staff at ASU. He is from Chandler. He didn't see an opportunity at BYU, so he went back home. I'd be surprised if he went anywhere else.

Anyone else scratching their head about Connover going to ASU? As in, ASU wanting Connover.

I, much like most online BYU fans, have no idea how this current class is shaping up because the doom scrolling we have engaged in over the past few days. Is the sky really falling or is BYU's class a step up from the last couple of years?

It's about on par with recent years.

Not by rule, but I wouldn’t want to be in the same room as the third stringer when they announce that the quitter will start.

Yep, I wouldn’t even bring him to the bowl game.

[All-American]

Declaring portal doesn't necessarily exclude him from playing does it?

Alternatively, he may recognize that if he shows what he's got in the bowl game, any potential offers could dissipate.

I wonder that's part of it.

[Pelado]

What is the timing on the portal? So he might be concerned that he'll miss some good offers? Seems to me he needs to show something, and the bowl game gives him that opportunity.

Because teams are looking at the portal now.

Why wouldn't Conover wait until after he gets a chance to play in the bowl game?

Connover must know what Jaren is doing, no? Unless he doesn't think he's going to beat out those other 2?

[myboynoah]

Behind Hall is Fennigan (transfer from Boise State) and Sol-Jay. Jaren had some comment on the radio this week about looking forward to getting better for next year, which some took to mean he is considering coming back.
