Blessed and humbled to be announced as an inductee into the 2026 @BYU Athletics Hall of Fame class.

My time in Provo helped shape me into the man and football player I am today, and receiving this recognition from BYU is incredibly special for both myself and my family.

Thank you to the BYU Athletic Department, all my @BYUFootball teammates and coaches, my loved ones, and all of the @BYUCougars fans who shaped this journey.

@kwjazzman @jaromjordan See the reply to the other similar question on this post. I believe it’s because they are just a prospective player instead of having committed.

[Jesse Cottam @cot_byufootball]

@PaulBennington7 @Lorin_J_Smith @jaromjordan I believe that’s it yes.

[Hans Olsen @GBSHansO]

Had a chance to catch a BYU football media observation opportunity.
Yeah.
The things you’re reading are true.
The things coach ARod are saying about Bear Bachmeier are true.
Players I was most impressed with:
#1 a. Bear Bachmeier
#1 b. Walker Lyons
#2 Andrew Gentry (dominant)
#3 Justin Kirkland (his build more than anything) dude got serious.
#4 Reggie Freshneck (I like this name)
#5 Isaiah Glasker (moving well, loved his coverages)

This camp is right on track.
This team loves each other.
This staff coaches hard.
My expectations remain the same. A Big12 Championship game return is the standard.

PLAYER OF THE WEEK

[Jay Drew @drewjay]

BYU's Kevin Young: "Someone just told me we dropped to 11, which I still don't get. I really don't understand how the polls work. I'm not trying to be funny. We have one loss by two points against the No. 3 team in the country, in their backyard, and we were down two starters."

[Jay Drew @drewjay]

No. 11 BYU hosts TCU on Wednesday night; Frogs' roster includes two guys with Utah ties -- former Cougar Tanner Toolson and Adam Stewart, a 6-11 center. Kevin Young just said that Stewart's parents -- Rich and Rebekah -- are his neighbors in Utah County.

[Greg Wrubell @gregwrubell]

From the @Big12Conference: four league teams have started 15-1 or better, marking the first time any conference has had four teams win 15 of their first 16 games since the 2010-11 Big East, which produced a then-record 11 NCAA tournament bids and the eventual national champion.

Defense so good it deserves a sweet breakdown 🍬🔥

Coming into today, K-State had made 10 or more 3-pointers in four consecutive games, and had made double-digit 3s in eight of 13 games.

K-State was 9th in nationally in 3PFG% and 21st in made 3s per game.

Today v. BYU: season-low number of 3s (3/21), season-low 3PFG% (14.3%).

[Greg Wrubell @gregwrubell]

K-State took a four-game win streak into today's game v. BYU; during the streak, KSU was averaging 97.8 points per game.

K-State's 73-point outing today was only its fourth game under 80 points this season (0-4).

Today's 41.8% FG was K-State's third lowest-number of the season.
