BYU71 is an unknown quantity at this point

For me this speaks volumes that goes far beyond whether Tonga is in shape or not.

First off congrats to the young man and here is hoping he really has worked himself back into BYU. Second off congrats to Bronco and BYU. Apparently there is more care for the individual than the "image".

If I come to totally believe that BYU is into the "what is best for the individual" over "what is best for BYU's image", my level of pride in being a BYU alum will have taken a major step upward.

I don't have any personal insights into the likelihood of his return. Just a second-hand reference made by someone on TBS, citing Talo.



Take it for what it's worth...

It's certainly appealing, the idea that Bronco & BYU have been willing to work with him, even after such a serious mistake...

I don't know why, but this line made me laugh.


For the record, I'm just reporting what was said by others, and not claiming anything either way. For all I know, the guy has a pot-belly rivaling my late Uncle's...
