BYU names Captains and other notes (Casey)

So yesterday at practice BYU players had a vote to name the 2013 team captains. When the votes were all tallied they had 2 defensive players and 2 offensive players selected. The 2 Offensive players were not Jamaal Williams and Taysom Hill, it was JD Falslev and Skyler Ridley.

On the defensive side of the ball it was not Kyle Van Noy and Spencer Hadley, rather Uani Unga and Daniel Sorensen were named captains.

I have no problem with these guys being named captains in fact earlier this off season I heard Van Noy say that Unga the vocal leader of there defense so it should come as no surprise that he was chosen and because it was a vote of there peers there should be no complaints from fans as well.

Chris Badger
 BYU has received word that former Timpview safety and 2009 Notre Dame commit Chris Badger has decided to transfer to BYU as per his father Dr Rod Badger and as long as he is accepted into BYU he will transfer and according to BYU beat writer Jay Drew he is going to appeal the transfer waiver and hope he can play today. If not he will sit out this year and be ready to play 3 years at Safety for the Cougars. So if all are healthy BYU will have next year as potential starters; Trammell and Leavitt at Corner and Bills and Badger at Saftey (They were teammates at Timpview), it looks pretty solid. Plus next year BYU will also have TCU transfer Tayo Fabuluje on the offensive line. Side note on Badger was a 3 star recruit out of high school and he was offered out of high school by Notre Dame, Florida State, BYU, Oregon, and Stanford. Things are looking solid!
