Has Shaw lost any LDS commits when they return from their mission? I seem to remember losing one a while ago, but am not sure if it was Shaw or Harballs.

The theory has always been that quarterback Taysom Hill decided during his LDS Church mission in Australia to sign with BYU and not attend the school he signed with out of high school, Stanford, because coach Jim Harbaugh left to coach the San Francisco 49ers.

...

Hill said the primary reason he didn't return to Stanford had nothing to do with Harbaugh at all, or his replacement, David Shaw.

Rather, Hill said he learned on his mission that Stanford does not allow incoming freshmen to join the team until June each year. Hill returned home after two years in Australia last December, enrolled at BYU in January, and immediately received a scholarship.
