BYU freshman defensive end Bronson Kaufusi met with reporters after football practice Monday night and talked about the news that broke over the weekend that he might play for the BYU basketball team when the football season is over.

Kaufusi, 6-foot-6, was an all-state football and basketball player at Timpview High in the Provo area. He returned home from an LDS Church mission on July 24, but is already making an impact on the football field for the Cougars this season.
