Orphey is actually Keith McGill's cousin - family ties and him whispering in his ear likely helped change his mind. Too bad as he would have been playing for a team with the 10th most difficult schedule in the country in 2013. Would have been a great chance to display his skills on big time stage.

Rumor from a couple of days ago about posting UT accolades on Facebook now a reality. He has decommitted and verballed with the Utes. Better now than later on as we still have time to pursue other CBs. Not sure why he changed other than promise of BCS conference. But lot of good that does UT at present - not a lot of TV exposure.

Committed to BYU. He is projected to replace DB Preston Hadley at boundary corner next year.

Appears that he wants his parents on board with his decision. Howell is pushing him to commit now, he believes that a joint visit to campus with his folks will help make the decision easier. He must be talented as Howell is pulling out all the stops to demonstrate his interest in him becoming a Cougar. I would think the schedule in 2013 would be a pretty big carrot.

Talo Steves reporting that CB Davion Orphey visited BYU recently and really enjoyed his visit. Very good sign.

Nice article on TBS. Kid runs a 4.43/40, converted from RB (avg. 4.7 yds/carry) due to lack of depth in backfield.
Considers Jordan Johnson a big influence in his decision - like a brother to him.
BYU very high on his list - will make a decision later on this year.

Has a very long stride that covers lots of ground rather quickly. He looks effortless when he runs.

players don't always play off the receiver because they're not good. It's the defensive scheme that usually dictates a CBs distance.
