If you don't, can I get early dibs to buy yours instead? I wouldn't mind upgrading to the 50 yard line.

Also BYU's OOC home schedule for '10 looks like this:

vs. Washington

That's it. There is an open slot for an OOC for 09' away and 10' home....and I imagine that's what BYU is trying to fill.

Since 09' OOC schedule is: vs. Florida State, vs. Utah State, @ Arizona State.....my guess they're looking for a fair to middle of the road Non-BCS D-I team to fill that role.

By 2010 UNLV, SDSU and Wyoming might be powerhouse's people are wanting to see badly.

Is Munns going to stay?

I am not so sure that is the plan. Sounds to me more like they are letting him play QB because they need another backup.

I think a good portion of the 08' signing class will still be on missions by the time the '10 season rolls around.

Only 5 of the signees are going on missions right out of high school, so a much larger number will be leaving on their missions after the 08' season.

Also I can't see BYU not going after a JC QB for the 09' class as a stop gap.

From everything I've heard James Lark isn't the answer and has been disapointing in practices and running the scout team.

However, before Jason Munns blew his knee out, I'd heard the exact opposite of him. That from the minute he walked on to campus the coaches knew they had someone pretty special. However...he's now leaving on mission this Summer...and even if he gets home in time for '10 season he won't be in the mix that year.

So.........My guess is they'll go after a JC QB that has 3 years to play 2, and then redshirt him for the 09' season, with the hopes that when the 10' season rolls around that he's had at least a full year learning the system.

There's been a lot of rumors/gossip regarding Riley Nelson going to BYU off of his mission, but I'll believe that when I see it.

Anyway, just a few thoughts.

Or Utah State.

Course they're a road game that year.

I try to go to a good road game every year with my boys. USU will certainly be up there on the list of games I would love to travel too.

Cashe Valley ice cream. $7
A round of golf. $45
A 3 day fishing license. $25
Not having to worry about booking your plane tickets for the wrong weekend. Priceless.

Most QB prospects, even highly recruited ones, don't work out. That's the nature of the game. That's why I think all these plans of this guy or that guy is going to take over in '10 at QB are crap. We should be signing a QB every year.
