Jay Drew did a follow up to what Bronco said in the MWC call yesterday, and added the comments not about Harvey. Very good read. I found the last tidbit very interesting. It said:



On whether BYU’s athleticism improves each year:

“We are more athletic, we are faster, we are quicker. That doesn’t mean that that is now in place of the character, the academics, etc. Some of these kids especially now that they are becoming more highly recruited, there is a level of entitlement that they feel, and sometimes they have been allowed to hold on to that, by getting away with things in the classroom, in the community or on the field, by cutting corners.

We have already seen some of those things and have worked to address it really bluntly and sharply and quickly right from the beginning to make sure everything here is earned, and that it is a privilege to be here. So I think we have already seen some of it.”



Considering that Kyle Van Noy had to sit out some practice days in spring Camp, can we assume that Bronco was referring to him? He also mentioned that Kyle Van Noy is not on the 2-deep for the Will LB spot, that Coleby Clawson played, and where it is assumed KVN would play as well. Perhaps he will back up Pendleton.



Rest of article here. Worth the read.

As I've said before, from talking to a few players, some of those comments could also refer to Heaps' first few week in voluntary practices.

At the end of Fall camp, it appeared that Van Noy was the main back-up to Atkinson at Will, and that Frazier was the main back-up to Pendleton at Sam.
