The BYU football season is inching closer. This week, BYU will wrap up Fall camp and turn their attention to Southern Illinois. As Fall camp comes to a close, t
he depth chart will need to be solidified at every position group.
Former American Fork standout Bodie Schoonover has locked down that spot and will be featured in the two-deep when it is released before the Southern Illinois game. "Bodie Schoonver has really solidified himself as the fourth guy for sure," BYU defensive ends coach Kelly Poppinga told the media on Friday. "I think those four guys are a little further ahead than everybody else."
Then BYU made him a priority down the stretch and he eventually signed with BYU as part of the 2020 recruiting class. According to the star ratings, he was the second best BYU signee in the 2020 class behind only Kody Epps. Between shaking the mission rust, changing positions, and adding weight, it's taken a while for Schoonover to settle in at BYU. Now as a redshirt sophomore, he has added weight and he is ready to contribute at defensive end. He is listed at 6'3 and 225 pounds. That's good news for the BYU defense. He has always been talented, it was just about finding the right spot for him and adding the right amount of weight before he could contribute.
