BYU QB Taysom Hill Will Not Transfer to UVA

Perpetual dark horse Heisman candidate, Taysom Hill, is pursuing a medical hardship waiver and will remain at BYU.

There were multiple reports that former BYU head coach Bronco Mendenhall was actively recruiting Hill to follow him to UVA where he could play immediately as a graduate transfer. Others speculated that Hill could depart to Ann Arbor, Michigan to play for the coach who signed him out of high school in Jim Harbaugh.

IMO, Hill is a fantastic QB who just hasn't been able to stay healthy. I'm glad we don't have to worry about UVA having a QB of his caliber. However, UVA's Streaking The Lawn blog states that it's possible that stability for Matt Johns is a positive thing for UVA

One could view this as a blessing in disguise for the Cavaliers. Although Hill's ability is indisputable, one of the strongest legacies of the Mike London era was instability at quarterback. With Johns now firmly cemented as QB1, another quarterback controversy has been avoided.

I guess we'll see how Matt Johns responds with no QB controversy, but I'm glad Hill is staying put in Provo.
