BYU gets their 29th Commit

I [heart] walk-ons. Keep it real baby! Rudy would be proud!

I saw that this morning on Scout.com. I haven't heard anything about this kid - or seen his picture. He must be a "studdo!" Does he have some speed???? Hopefully! He's gotta have some "skills" or he wouldn't get the offer extended. I always believe in Bronco!!!!

:crazy:

I could not find him in the Scout database.

5' 9"

181 lbs

4.7s 40yd

31.6" vert

from AF (Lone Peak)



Sounds like Bronco Junior. Congrats Levi! Make us proud!

4.7 speed at 5' 9'

Good thing he was not given a schollie.

As far has Hannemann goes he has more size and potential, but were either of these two looked at by anybody? I dont even know that they were even given schollie offeres by SUU and weber.

With some of the big name safties and CB coming in I doubt they will see the field. Maybe they will have a Steven Thomas role.

Preferred walk-on will always be a long-shot, but you have to like you're opportunity at BYU just because of the history. Additionally, having good scout team players is always an advantage, and a lot of these guys end up there. You have to love people are as hungry as this kid sounded in the TBS article.

"BYU has also offered preferred walk-on status to Levi Gifford, a 5-11, 190-pound safety at Lone Peak High in Alpine, Utah. Gifford led the state in tackles last season. He reportedly turned down scholarship offers from Air Force and Navy to walk-on at BYU."
