Tanner McKee, from Corona, California, is a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints who is ranked by Scout.com as the fourth-best signal caller in the country for the 2018 recruiting class. He said the decision at BYU to relieve Ty Detmer of his role as offensive coordinator affects his thoughts on the program, but the Cougars aren't off his list of schools he's considering attending.

One key area in which BYU’s decision to relieve Ty Detmer of his duties as offensive coordinator on Monday could have a big impact is recruiting, as assistant coaches usually are the first ones to build relationships with recruits.
