Harvey Langi Transfer
Looks like he wants to come to the Y now that he is home from his mission. Do you think it will happen?

Re: Harvey Langi Transfer
What do I know about talent and potential. He was a big high school recruit but he did not have a great first year at the U. Perhaps we can get better.

Re: Harvey Langi Transfer
His mom and Whitt are both opposed to the transfer. Whitt went so far as to say he owned him.

Re: Harvey Langi Transfer
He'll transfer, but he may have to sit out a year depending on how things go with the NCAA.
Whitt will not, and in my mind should not, release him--he simply can't afford the precedent of allowing anyone who wants to transfer to BYU without penalty. I have no issue with Whitt doing that.
However, it appears Utah flubbed it with Langi. Because he was an early graduate from high school, Utah apparently never bothered to file his NLI with the NCAA as he was on campus prior to the February NLI date. Unfortunately for Utah, by not filing the NLI, they lost out on the transfer protection, so Langi may be able to play without sitting out a year regardless of what Whitt wants at this point.

It will get interesting how the transfer works out. Says he is a free agent.

Haha, if they only had a law school to consult.

Re: Harvey Langi Transfer
This is great. I have no sympathy for the Utes after all of their unjustified P5 snobbery. Let there be weeping, wailing, and gnashing of teeth over the absent letter of intent.

Re: Harvey Langi Transfer
He is reported to be 6'2" and 250 lbs. Whitt had him targeted as a DE upon his return. Bronco may have him listed as MLB or possibly a replacement for Paul Lasike as our big bruiser RB. It is a good get regardless of Yewts denial. I believe that Bronco will lock him up when he visits on Thursday.

Re: Harvey Langi Transfer
It sounds like he will have four years to play three, regardless of whether the LOI issue frees him up the first year. He could probably benefit from a red-shirt his first year back, anyway.
