This is going to be a real test for Bronco, to see if he can actually get this fish in the boat. |

For the love of Lavell just give us the token mormon. He got Havili and we didn't whine or question his devotion to the Gospel of Christ, well at least I didn't. Why can't there be mercy upon us? He goes to SC, you know it and I know it. That is why SC is SC and BYU is BYU. Damn you. Growing up in Simi Valley I was a Bruin fan and now I know why.

For some reason I just have a good feeling about this. If the kid had been leaning strongly to another school prior to showing up at BYU, I would be worried about the strong BYU spirit catching hold of him while he was there and then leaving as he crossed the Utah County border. Pre-trip I didn't hear things about he wanted to play for a big school, the BCS was important to him, etc. I would think the urge to play right away might also have some influence. There have been some comments that he may not be as sure about a mission as some folks have suggested. If there is that underlying current and his Dad has picked up on it, that might have the Dad also swinging toward BYU. |

Have the prophet come out and say, "every 3 star and above LDS kid should be a BYU football player?? Get into a BCS conference, so we can at least compete that way. Any other suggestions. |

BYU has a really good story to sell now that we've finished top 15 2 years in a row and the pre-season polls have us in good shape for next year. It becomes much easier to get the great players when you can tell them, "you will be the guy to put us over the top."

SC has the stage. SC has one parent's support. SC has a Poly brotherhood. SC is close to home. SC will let him go on a mission that he doesn't want to go on. SC can virtually gurantee him the chance to play in a couple of BCS bowls. BYU gets UNI in its opener and a big game against TCU. BYU is the mtn. BYU is his school's faith and it will give him a chance to probably play a lot as a freshman and start for 3 years. It also gives him a good shot of playing in a BCS bowl. As I said, I am impressed that Mendenhall has made it thus far given that it is not his parents deepest wishes. That impresses me, honestly. Perhaps he will land Kaveinga and if he doesn't he will land some in time. Mendenhall seems to be getting closer.
