BYU wide receiver Parker Kingston is feeling optimistic about the direction of the Cougars’ offense heading into the upcoming season. The former Roy High School standout has praised the team’s growing chemistry on the offensive side of the ball, noting that trust and cohesion are steadily building among players and coaches.
Kingston, entering another pivotal year in Provo, emphasized the importance of timing and communication in the team’s system. “We’re really starting to gel as a unit,” he said. “Everyone’s buying in, and the timing between quarterbacks and receivers has improved a lot. That chemistry is what will take us to the next level.”
A former high school quarterback turned dynamic receiver, Kingston has adapted quickly to his role in BYU’s evolving offense. He believes the program is doing the right things to maximize player strengths, including building strong relationships off the field.
In addition to the internal progress, Kingston also highlighted the support from BYU’s extensive alumni network. From recent graduates to former NFL players, alumni regularly engage with the current roster, offering mentorship, advice, and encouragement. “The alumni here are awesome,” Kingston shared. “They check in, they want to help us succeed. It feels like we’re part of something bigger than just football.”
This sense of belonging, both within the current team and in the wider BYU community, is helping fuel a renewed sense of purpose for Kingston and his teammates. As the Cougars look to improve their standing in the Big 12, that unity could prove to be a key factor.
With fall camp approaching, Kingston’s comments reflect a team that’s not only focused on performance but also grounded in shared values and long-term support—hallmarks of the BYU football
culture.
