On this Memorial Day edition of Y’s Guys, Dave McCann welcomed Jason Shepherd in for Blaine Fowler for a wide-ranging show covering BYU football, basketball, track and field, golf, baseball, and more. The show opened with discussion about the upcoming announcement of kickoff times and broadcast details for BYU football’s first three games, including Utah Tech, Arizona, and Colorado State, plus the possibility that BYU’s October 17 matchup with Notre Dame could become one of the biggest national games of the season.
The first guest was author, speaker, podcast host, educator, and BYU fan John Bytheway, who discussed leadership, mentorship, the power of coaches and parents in shaping young people, and what BYU’s standout freshmen—AJ Dybantsa, Bear Bachmeier, Jane Hedengren, and Kihei Akina—teach about buy-in, humility, and influence. BYU director of track and field Ed Eyestone then joined live from his Memorial Day barbecue to preview NCAA West Regionals and BYU’s national championship hopes, including the extraordinary freshman season of Jane Hedengren and the continued strength of BYU’s distance program.
The Re-Lyte Athlete of the Week was BYU men’s golfer Parker Bunn, who delivered a top-10 finish at NCAA Regionals to help the Cougars qualify for the national championship. The show also featured BYU super fan and Ephraim’s Hope leader Gary Heaton, who shared his love for BYU sports and promoted the upcoming Ephraim’s Hope Golf Tournament, which raises money to send children in Uganda to school. The episode closed with campus notes, Quick Quack updates, “On This Day,” and a Memorial Day tribute to those who gave their lives in service to the country.
