I assume it is because he has Tanner McKee coming in in that class. Yes, McKee could opt out, but he probably won't. It may not make any sense to Cardboarders but it does to Shaw, and he is the only one whose vote counts.
Haven't we lost a pretty highly ranked recruit or two at QB to BYU after they came back from a mission?

Heard that on KNBR. Have no idea whether it's meaningful. And (b) since five quarterbacks were taken in last year's first round, it is likelier that a good team will take a chance on Costello than a bad team.
Although it is doubtful, wouldn't Costello be able to come back as a fifth year senior (assuming no one takes his job)?
To my knowledge, we have only lost one QB to BYU coming back from a mission (Taysom Hill).
Here's why we lost him.

People always use that as an example of how we shouldn't count on players returning from missions, but I believe it is pretty rare that we lose anyone.
Also, McKee said that short of something drastic like a head coach quitting his commitment was rock solid.
