Locked on BYU for August 29, 2018 began with the news that came out Tuesday afternoon that BYU has scheduled a football series with longtime regional rival Wyoming (3:22). Locked on BYU host Jake Hatch explains why the series is a good thing for the Cougars and digs into why he believes pursuing a formal scheduling agreement, not membership, with the Mountain West Conference would be in BYU's best interest.
In the second segment of the podcast, an interview with BYU cornerback Beau Tanner was on the show (16:00). He explained what went into his returning to the program after announcing he was leaving the team, how his transition to playing on defense has gone, what he expects now that he's in the two-deep and explaining exactly how fast he can run on the gridiron (spoiler - it's very fast).
In the final segment of the show, Hatch addresses some of the listener questions submitted on Twitter by listeners. He talked about potential surprise contributors this season (27:58), how much the previous offensive staff may have affected Tanner Mangum's play (29:57) and addressed the talk surrounding defensive tackle Wayne Tei Kirby (31:32)
