| Daily Herald Sports Editor Darnell Dickson checks in on all things BYU sports. |

| Good morning! Getting ready to go in and listen to Craig Thompson's "State of the Conference" address. It's actually one of my favorite parts of the media days, and I'm not sure why. I probably write too much about it, but I just find it interesting. A couple of things from yesterday: Funny moment before the podium session with BYU. Jan Jorgensen and Bronco were in the room waiting for Max, who was finishing up with a TV interview. When Max arrived he said something like, "We can start now." And Bronco, in his dry sense of humor, said, "This is a sad commentary on the hierarchy of the football program," or something like that. Also, we got Bronco laughing pretty hard talking about recruiting. I won't tell the whole story yet, but he laughed because he realized how ridiculous it sounds to say that he wants national LDS recruits (like Manti Te'o) to tell him why they should be at BYU, not the other way around. I'll tell the full story another time. Bronco also said since he's been at BYU they've awarded scholarships to 20 walk-ons. That's an interesting number, don't you think? Update from the State of the Conference Two things that came out of Thompson's address: The possibility of teaming up with the Humanitarian Bowl in 2009 and the chance to have games on CBS in the future ... but set your alarm because they would have to start at 10 a.m. Check out the Herald on Wednesday for more info on these and other issues. | ||
