We missed a few things during the draft, like this bit from former Golden State GM Bob Myers. Check this out: “The unique thing about Cooper Flagg is that he impacts winning more so than a lot of players. I’m going to say something that might be controversial: Victor Wembanyama got a lot of attention being the No. 1 pick [in 2023]. I could see Cooper Flagg impacting winning more than Victor did in his rookie year. And Victor is a fantastic player. “The reason is Cooper Flagg is as NBA-ready as they come. He guards, he defends,…

Elliott burst onto the scene as a freshman in…

SALT LAKE CITY — Chris Hill was poolside Wednesday afternoon when he answered the phone, relaxing after a round of golf. The former Utah athletic director’s playing partner? His longtime counterpart in Provo, ex-Brigham Young AD Tom Holmoe. “When Tom announced his retirement, I told him we’d play a round to celebrate,” Hill explained. (Holmoe stepped down this spring after two decades in charge of BYU athletics.) “Tom and I always got along. People don’t understand that because of the whole Utah-BYU thing. But the schools had a lot in common, and they still do. They’ll vote the…

The BYU football team’s defense in 2024 didn’t have many weaknesses as the Cougars rolled to an 11-2 record and impressive 36-14 win over Travis Hunter, Shedeur Sanders and the Colorado Buffaloes in the Alamo Bowl. If there was a deficiency on the defensive side of the ball that kept BYU from going undefeated in Big 12 play and making the College Football Playoff, it was probably the lack of sacks. That, and the inability to get off the field consistently on third down. BYU had 20 sacks in 13 games, 1.54 per game, last season. That put…

Let me preface this by saying, this is probably not going to happen. Especially with…

Faison has patiently waited. He brought on NIL attorney Darren Heitner to help with the waiver for eligibility in early May. Faison’s camp has held off on filing a lawsuit to this point. The Utah State transfer graduated from high school in 2019 and enrolled at Marshall, but never played a snap for the Thundering Herd and later left the program. He enrolled in online classes at Lackawanna College in 2020, but did not play football. And when he enrolled at Snow College in 2021, he didn’t get on the field until 2022 and transferred to Utah State for…
