YOU GUYS. Not only did Diggs blow this tackle… but he also went to Texas. And… HE WAS THERE when Taysom ran all over them! After the game yesterday he said he’s “still embarrassed” about that game. 😂🔥💙 #GodBlessTaysomHill #TaysomTime

Surgery went well. It was a little more invasive than they thought, but they got the infection all cleaned out. They were glad they went ahead with the surgical route. Her pain is being managed and she’s got @byutv & Studio C keeping her company. 💙

19 years ago today, I entered the MTC with my fancy 1 megapixel digital camera and my khaki skirt. It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made (the mission— not the khaki skirt). So grateful for the time I spent in western NY serving the Lord. 🫶🏼

… only to see the TT symbol on their address sign, a TT flag, a TT doormat… & the guy came to the door in a TT shirt! I was like “Don’t kill me!” They were nice. They laughed & said “It’s okay. TT is getting killed by everyone this year!” So I lived to rep another day. #GoCougs

Our sweet baby boy was having trouble oxygenating, so he’s been in the NICU for a couple days. His color is getting better, and they’re slowly weaning him. He’s doing great! We don’t think he’ll come home with mama and sister tomorrow, but he shouldn’t have to stay much longer.

Shaylee Gonzalez seemingly throwing shade at BYU saying the fans at Texas “are incredible— unlike anywhere else, especially in the conference.” 🤨 They average 5,500 fans/game. Take it personal Cougs. Support our WBB! @byuwbb @byuROC
