<p>This episode of Y’s Guys, hosted by Dave McCann and Blaine Fowler, is packed with BYU sports news, heartfelt moments, music, and humor—all presented by BradyPlus and distributed by the Deseret News. The show kicks off with major announcements in BYU basketball, including the return of Richie Saunders and Keba Keita, and excitement around the upcoming arrival of AJ Dybantsa. With the addition of Xavion Staton and other key players, the roster for next season is shaping up to be one of BYU’s biggest and most athletic ever. The hosts also react to Dallin Hall entering the transfer portal and recap AJ’s standout performance in the McDonald’s All-American Game.</p><br><p>The first guest is Jonny Harline, BYU’s legendary tight end best known for his 2006 game-winning catch against Utah. Jonny reflects on BYU’s recent win over Utah in Salt Lake and breaks out the guitar to perform two songs live—one acoustic and one electric. He talks about the correlation between football and music, shares his thoughts on the rising market for tight ends like Trey McBride, and encourages young athletes through his tight end football camps.</p><br><p>Later, Bob Hudson, the Chair of BYU’s French and Italian Departments, brings laughs and cultural insight as he explains how he balances his Kentucky drawl with fluent French. A former Murray State offensive lineman, Hudson shares stories from his recruiting trip hosted by Kalani Sitake, helps translate football terms into French, and breaks down BYU’s offensive line potential for the 2025 season. He also speaks about his mission to Paris, learning languages at the Missionary Training Center vs. the classroom, and why France is often misunderstood by Americans.</p><br><p>The show concludes with reflections on the life of Elaine Michaelis—a trailblazer in BYU athletics—and updates across spring sports including volleyball sweeps, softball wins, track records, and the women’s golf team prepping for Big 12 Championships. Special shout-outs go to Casey Clinger for breaking the 10,000-meter school record and the BYU landscaping team for winning a national title—four of whom will be guests on next week’s show, along with BYU women’s head basketball coach Lee Cummard.</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
