Perhaps one underrated strength of the BYU football program is that it still stands as a destination program for players around the country.
Case in point would be the recent commitment of Nathan Hoke, who readily cites BYU as his first choice despite growing up across the country in Wexford, Pennsylvania. He said as much in a recent article published by PGH Sports Now.
“Growing up, I’ve always loved that school and now with a chance to play for them, that was an opportunity I couldn’t pass up,” Hoke said of his decision to commit to BYU.
