Chandler to BYU
- Thread starter BlueBloodKyFan73
- Start date
The skiing is great in Utah, perhaps the best in the world.
So is the money obviously but don’t blame him
If I had to take a half educated guess, I'd say that Collin wanted to stay. Wife probably wants to move back to Utah and wants to stay there, which precludes most NBA teams and any international pro prospects after college. To financially hedge on this, Collin needs to make as much in college since he might not get to play for anyone outside of the Jazz, which is far from a certainty.
I don't blame him for following the money and wish him the absolute best of luck. Wish he was able to stay.

Hannah will never give him his balls back.
If I were in his shoes I'd more than likely do the same thing. Utah is a beautiful place to live, although Colorado and New Mexico is more my vibe.
Maybe Kevin Young can teach him how to dribble without looking down.
Sometimes you gotta do what's best for the band!.. The wedding band that is.
We need to stop recruiting married guys from Utah
I know the perfect person to go rejoin him there.

Us married guys understand that lol.
After he sold hats on IG directly after a loss, I shoulda known his heart wasn’t in it at UK
There's no place like home, as much as we'd like to think people love Kentucky, we're from here, it's our home, his home is Utah & he wanted to go home. I'm sure he enjoyed his time here & the new friends he made.
Best of luck to Collin and his wife.
Trust his best days playing basketball are ahead at BYU.
He was only player from last year’s team I was hoping to return.
He appeared to have his head on straight, unlike the other knuckleheads on the team.

Best of luck to the young man. I’m sure the allure of home + wife’s wishes + BYU bag was too much to pass up.
Probably out on zoom and a crystal ball for Thomas to Houston. I would still rather have Hill Jr
The wife always wins. I would have really liked him back but you have to make a business decision sometimes. Richie Saunders and Collin Chandler, Utah wives ain't leaving Utah.
Too bad he didn't take Pope with him. When Kentucky has the right coach Chandler is a bench player. Pope is the problem. Kentucky isn't going to win **** with Utah level high school talent.
Poor Pope. He recently went on a tirade against the fanbase on FB saying how you weren’t a true fan if you criticized the players (I’m only slightly paraphrasing) and he drew on Chandler as an example of one targets for said criticism. Basically said Chandler and the rest only deserve our praise for always trying their bestest.
And while I have historically been critical of coaches, I have been generally shown the players a lot of grace. That all ended when NIL made them highly paid professional athletes. That doesn’t mean I want to line them for the firing squad, but constructive criticism that points out their basketball related flaws, failure to meet expectations, and lack of loyalty are all fair game.

I for once am shocked! His rumored place where he originally committed and where his wife wanted to go!
