In this Memorial Day edition of Y’s Guys, hosts Dave McCann and Blaine Fowler honor those who have served while breaking down critical updates in BYU sports. The episode opens with a recap of quarterback Jake Retzlaff’s uncertain status following a civil lawsuit and what that means for BYU Football heading into fall. The crew explores who might step in—McCae Hillstead, Treyson Bourguet, or Bear Bachmeier—and how the offense can adapt, especially with key returners like LJ Martin, Chase Roberts, and a dominant O-line.

The show also covers BYU’s latest football commit, 6’4", 335-pound defensive tackle Alvin Puefua, who chose the Cougars over Miami, Utah, and Arizona. The team discusses ESPN’s Top 30 quarterbacks, where Retzlaff still lands at No. 17, and what to watch for in BYU’s early schedule: Portland State, Stanford, and East Carolina. They also dive into the new College Football Playoff format, which now rewards the Top 4 teams regardless of conference affiliation.

On the basketball front, AJ Dybantsa is invited to USA Basketball’s U19 training camp, and BYU’s updated non-conference schedule includes exhibition games against Nebraska (Oct. 18) and North Carolina (late October at the Delta Center). The show also celebrates the Marriott Center’s Top 10 national ranking for arena atmosphere and highlights Delaware at BYU (Nov. 11) as the first regular-season matchup.

The show wraps with updates from spring sports: Men’s Golf pushes for a top-8 finish at NCAA Championships; Softball’s Ilova’a Brittingham is named a Freshman All-American; Track & Field heads to the NCAA West Prelims with both teams ranked in the top 7; and Baseball finishes a strong Big 12 tournament run. Other features include the launch of the “Y’s Guy for a Day” fan contest, this week’s inspirational quote from John Wayne, and a look at BYU’s upcoming summer calendar.
