Bronson Kaufusi mission call = New Zealand

I expect that means we'll be seeing the Haka in future seasons... sounds like a great mission

Wellington or Auckland?

Dang! I was hoping Bronco would secretly convince him to forgoe his missions plans (kind of like what he did with Jake Heaps). Bummer! We could have used him this season--especaill#y with the defection of Kona Schwenke. Couldn't he be excused from his mission, considering that playing football for BYU is sort like serving a mission--you get bashed by the public and the media, and you don't see much success. Maybe Bronco could have the boys hand out Books of Mormon at halftime when we play away.



This one really hurts.

Wow... dude, let the crap spill here.... Listen to yourself. Bronco would NEVER secretly convince his players not to serve missions and he surely hasn't done that with Jake Heaps. What a stupid thing to say. I love Bronco, much to my dismay he often is more of a Bishop to these kids than a coach, either way, he is right, football is not most important. If Bronco senses that a player is considering a mission, he will be the first to tell him to go.



We can handle for these guys to go on Missions, that's how BYU football works, it's always been that way and quite frankly, as difficult as it might seem at times, it's what makes us so unique, it's what makes BYU football and I LIKE IT THAT WAY.

Hahah... Come on dude! Don't need to be selfish on this one. We all knew he would go. Look on the bright side... We'll be seeing tear it up in the next 2-6 years.



Plus, Jake Heaps has been vocal of not going on a mission since his high school days. We all expect him not to go(as far as I know).

I'm thinking more people need to turn on their humor/irony sensors...

Normally I'd agree with you, but with all the stupid BS that certain posters are known for, some cases are harder to tell than others.

Are you joking are serious schmoe? Its hard for me to tell. ;)

I would actually prefer this. Its a waste to have them not really contribute their freshman year then go on a mission just to have to take a year up anyway just to get back into form.



Go right away, red shirt first year back and have four years to dominate :)
