"BYU always, always, has been able to recruit big, hostile ... offensive linemen. This to me is one of their core strengths." --@TMatich How will the offensive line impact BYU Football's performance this season?

BYU Sports Nation Co-Host Jarom Jordan joined @espnthefan to talk about what the storylines are going into fall camp for the 2026-27 season: Q: What storylines intrigue you most heading into fall camp? Jordan: Having covered this program for nearly 20 years, I've learned that fall camp doesn't answer as many questions as people hope it will. Most of the real answers come once the games start. That said, there are some logistical and depth-chart questions I'm interested in. At wide receiver, beyond JoJo Phillips, who are the top three or four guys BYU trusts? Who's running with the first and second units? Backup quarterback is obviously a major storyline. Special teams is another one. You're replacing Will Ferrin and Sam Vander Haar. Is Matias Dunn ready to take over kicking duties? What does the punting situation look like? There's also a new long snapper, so that entire operation will be worth monitoring. Defensively, I'm interested in seeing what Kelly Poppinga looks like as the play-caller. That's difficult to evaluate in camp because you really need game situations to understand how a coordinator operates. Most of my camp questions are more about roster construction, depth charts, and personnel. The bigger football questions won't be answered until September. Q: What are some of those bigger questions that won't be answered until games begin? Jordan: Once the season starts, then you can really evaluate things. Is Paki Finau ready to be the guy at left tackle? How does the offensive line function as a whole? Are LJ Martin and Bear Bachmeier capable of producing at the level they did last season? Can Walker Lyons and Roger Saleapaga become the tight ends many people expect them to be? Is Keanu Tanuvasa as impactful at BYU as he was at Utah? We expect him to be a difference-maker. Can the defensive line generate consistent pressure? What wrinkles does Kelly Poppinga add now that he's running the defense? Those are the fun questions, but most of them won't be answered during August practices. They'll be answered when the lights come on and the games begin. Q: Will one of those questions be answered during camp—specifically whether Faletau Satuala is ready to go? Jordan: My guess is they'll ease him into things. There's really no need for him to prove anything in practice, especially if he's still recovering from a foot injury. Everything we've heard suggests he's on track, but BYU can afford to be cautious. I'd expect them to gradually ramp him up over the final couple weeks of camp. The schedule helps, too. You have an FCS opponent in Week 1 before the huge Arizona game in Week 2. Arizona is the game he absolutely needs to be ready for. The exciting thing about Siale is his ceiling. I think he's a legitimate first-round caliber talent if he continues to develop. The five-year eligibility era has changed how we think about these timelines, but from a pure NFL perspective, he's one of the most talented prospects on the roster.
