Great news on McKee.  He is a Mission kid however.

For sure.  I know he's not bound by anything he signs this cycle because of the mission, but the fact of acceptance, coupled with a Stanford commitment if he makes one, gives me some hope he'll stick to it and come here in 2020. 

I've been assuming the pull to BYU (one of his other favorites) wouldn't be as strong since he's not from Utah, but I don't know how reasonable that assumption is.  If he's grown up as one of a handful LDS kids at his school rather than being surrounded by LDS kids, I'm hoping he'll be comfortable with the percentage of LDS students both at Stanford generally, and on the football team in particular.  I have no idea how many LDS kids play at the other schools he's considering, but our team has certainly done well in recruiting kids that are either from Utah, are LDS, or both.
