PROVO — The BYU football program received a double-dose of bad news on Sunday, with Herriman linemen Jaren Kump and Tevita Fotu announcing they've both de-committed from signing with the Cougars on National Letter of Intent day. Adding salt to the wound was both athletes declaring intentions to sign with Utah.
Kump is a 6-foot-6, 245-pound offensive tackle who is still being courted by top Pac-12 programs, including USC. He originally committed to BYU in June of 2016, before flipping that commitment to Utah. Fotu is a 6-7, 255 defensive lineman, whose brother Leki Fotu, currently plays for the Utes.
