Can someone explain to me why Fui is "over-hyped"? - cougarguard.com — unofficial BYU Cougars / LDS sports, football, basketball forum and message board

A guy who as a Sophomore was home for 6 months prior to the 06' season, plays just over half the season, and when he was playing was hurt, still scores 11 touchdowns and has a very solid impact on a team fraught with options.

Does he need to learn to head upfield more? Yes...but because he needs to learn to do that more doesn't equte to overhype. Does he need to show he can play the season without sitting out a few games because of injury? Yes....but does that equate to over hype?

I always thought hype was someone who didn't perform after being talked about over and over again. Seems to me, considering what he did his Sophomore year that he actually EXCEEDED expectations given the team had 4 ALL Offensive MWC performers on it.

In spite of all the obvious factual evidence to the contrary,,this is a person who is clearly over hyped.

Not sure who is saying he is over-hyped, but if it is a Utah fan or a fan of any team in the conference that isn't BYU, what that means is that they would love to see the guy in their team's uniform.

At least that's my opinion.

I don't know enough about him to say he's over-hyped, but it wouldn't have hurt my feelings had he signed with Utah.
