The Cougars have bolstered their roster with the commitment of four-star tight end Brock Harris from Pine View High School in St. George, Utah. Harris’s decision to join BYU marks a significant addition to the 2026 recruiting class, reflecting the program’s growing appeal to top-tier talent.
BYU commenced its spring practices in late February, focusing on player development and strategic planning. The team also hosted an Alumni Game on March 28, 2025, at LaVell Edwards Stadium, reuniting former players and strengthening ties between past and present team members.
The Big 12 Conference released the Cougars’ 2025 football schedule, featuring a mix of conference and non-conference matchups. Notable games include hosting Stanford on September 6 and facing conference opponents such as West Virginia, Iowa State, and Texas Tech. The schedule reflects BYU’s integration into the Big 12 and presents opportunities for the team to build upon its previous successes.
Under the leadership of head coach Kalani Sitake, BYU aims to capitalize on its recent momentum. The team’s strong performance in the 2024 season, where they tied for the top spot in the Big 12 standings with a 7-2 conference record, has set high expectations for the upcoming season. The coaching staff is focused on addressing areas for improvement and integrating new talent to enhance the team’s competitiveness.
