    "...narrowed list list to Utah, Arizona and UNC..." This isn't a moral victory post, but could you imagine 3 years ago being mentioned in the same sentence with those guys for top recruits? We of course need to land some of these guys for it to matter one lick, but it is nice to be respected among those types of programs again, even in twitter form.

    Any updates on where Frank Jackson is leaning? I've heard he is going back for another visit to Duke... but that is probably just to tell them that he is going to BYU in person.

    On your first point, I agree. Regarding my Childs post, it felt good to once again assume that he didn't make our list of priority interests, not the other way around. I wonder if football will ever get to this point with the highest rank instate kids.

    On your second point, it appears that Jackson's Duke visit is coming at the expense of his Arizona visit. Silver lining, at least he won't be playing against us in conference.

    --Yeats

    “True, we [lawyers] build no bridges. We raise no towers. We construct no engines. We paint no pictures - unless as amateurs for our own principal amusement. There is little of all that we do which the eye of man can see. But we smooth out difficulties; we relieve stress; we correct mistakes; we take up other men's burdens and by our efforts we make possible the peaceful life of men in a peaceful state.”
