All 7 BYU All American QB's at UW game

Post by Florwood »

Including McMahon! I'll love seeing them all together. It will include a half time presentation, which should be extra interesting for Sarkisian as the UW head coach...

What are the chances that Sark participates in any of it? I don't doubt that he wants to but as a head coach for a D-1 program he's a pretty busy guy that week.

Y Quarterback Weekend baby!!! Looks like they are hoping to raise money for a BYU Quarterback scholarship fund. Interesting. Best way around the NCAA limit on football onlyschollies is to have outside schollies to give as well.

I don't think that's how it works. The limits still apply. They're just trying to create an endowment for 4 scholarships (where the interest covers the costs) aimed specifically at the QB position.

I am excited to read that Jim McMahon will be there!! That's great. I hope he is treated well - as I trust all the QB's will be. This is really good news. It will make for a good day - along with a "W."

Awesome! And I've got to miss it! I'll be in Boston that weekend. I'm not even sure I'll be able to watch the game.

Yeah, the limits will still apply, but BYU will have that much more coin to spend in other directions. What's funny is the fact they are doing a fundraiser for $1 Million--that's less than what Steve Young is STILL getting paid every year from his 40 year annuity he got as part of his compensation from his USFL days. Come on Steve--cough it up.
