My thoughts exactly. Not to be a downer, but he may never play a down. He could go on a mission, get homesick and sign with Utah.
Then again, there's no way to know what he's discussed with the coaching staff, so I'll shut up and hope for the best. I really hope he sticks around.
Huge pickup! Hopefully he isn't the next Hamani Stevens - would be a huge loss. Watch BYU/Utah coaches trying to convince him to take his mission now....
“If everybody in this room just want to be real with themselves, this game could have went either way,” he said. “We turned the ball over a lot. We beat ourself. Just be real with yourself right now. We beat ourself.”

Best thing that could have happened today. While King would have been a good get, he plays more of a DE position and that seems to be filled easier than DT.
The trends seems like guys who start right away and get playing time are less likely to go for a mission (like Manti Te'o with Notre Dame this year) While redshirts and back-ups usually go (like Hamani Stevens).

Yeah exactly what I was saying in chat. Start him next year & we'll have him for 3-4 years. $ and NFL>Mission every time.
Remember, when Haloti Ngata enrolled he planned to take his mission after his freshman year. We will just need to be patient as we won't know right away.

Just in time for Hemani Stevens to come back and tag him out. Booooya
Can't serve a mission until you are 19 years old, so yah, we will have him for at least a year.
congrats on getting him ... with both amazing recruiting classes for both schools, we'll continue our epic battles over the course of the next few years
how about next year, you guys get the defense recruits and we'll take the offense recruits

Don't worry. Tedford is bound to land a decent QB eventually.
