Yes. I'm convinced that Coach Eyestone & his athletes deliberately sequence "missions" to stack their teams in certain years for success. Nothing personal, I just don't care about the BYU athletics until they graduate & go professional given their undeserved & unfair advantage. 26 year old grown men with family's running agains 18 year olds? Again, I view BYU & other foreign dominated teams as the WCAP of the NCAA: doesn't reflect the spirt of collegiate sports.
No words for this. You think Clinger would have left last winter if this was the case? That's just stupid.
And it may 26 year olds, but they are running against 24 year olds in their class. Do you have a problem with 24 year olds running against 18 year olds? Because that happens all the time.
Missions are a wash. for some it helps, for some it hurts.
- "Clinger" Yes ... I think "Clinger" would have left because he saw the "writing on the wall" with NAU. That said, I don't know "Clinger" because I don't pay attention to BYU athletes.
- 24 Year-olds running vs 18-Year Olds: yes, particularly when they are foreigners or LDS Mission + Redshirt athletes. They should compete in the NAIA who welcome such athletes. The only ones that should rate an age waiver are military veterans.
