Provo • A highly recruited prep quarterback from Arizona made Mother’s Day even more special for BYU’s football coaching staff on Sunday.
Jacob Conover, a junior at Chandler (Ariz.) High School, announced via Twitter that he has committed to play for the Cougars. Conover, a four-star recruit, is expected to go on an LDS Church mission before enrolling at BYU.
“Committing to the school of my dreams. Go Cougs,” Conover wrote on the social media website.
Conover also had offers from Alabama, Arizona State, Mississippi, Oregon State, Washington State, Utah State and others, according to various recruiting services.
