Former Sabino High School baseball/football standoutΒ Matt BushmanΒ has returned from a Mormon mission to Chile and has already made a mark at BYU. Bushman caught four passes for 105 yards and two touchdowns in a Cougars scrimmage last week. β€œHe’s worked hard to be a legitimate target for us,” BYU quarterbackΒ Tanner MangumΒ told reporters. β€œWe love having those guys over the middle. He’s a big dude and can run as well. And it makes it hard for linebackers to cover.” Bushman also suits up for BYU’s baseball team, as a reserve infielder, although he has yet to play in a game.Β
