    A Tradition Unlike Any Other - The Preseason Foot Injury

    Never a good sign when it's a reoccurring foot injury. Hope he's able to make a speedy recovery. My two cents, though, which could be completely wrong, but I think he was going to struggle to see the court. I was projecting Maluach to play around 25 minutes at the 5, and Brown to pick up...

    Sion James may not necessarily start, but I do think he'd get at least 20 minutes a night. He's a great defender, a good secondary playmaker, and he's in the 96th percentile on spot up jumpers. Much more prepared to contribute than most of the freshmen. - and will likely have a bigger impact...

    We probably can't promise him starter minutes, but the fact that Scheyer is going after elite guards like this shows that he just wants to win. Lanier is rated as the #8 overall transfer by On3. Scheyer ain't looking for serviceable backups. As far as I can tell, he wants all the elite talent he...

    What?! He didn't contribute much outside of scoring and rebounding? He was one of 4 finalists for the NABC National Defensive POY. Zion was just a couple blocks away from averaging 2 blocks / 2 steals in the same season. The only players that have done that this century: Shane Battier, Nerlens...

    I know we seem a bit off-balanced with a lot of small forwards, and not many guards. If you want to look at a really weird roster construction, look no further than the 2017 team. You could argue that we had 7 centers on that team lol. Centers (7): Amile Jefferson (body of a 4, but mostly...

    Yes, I understand that. We still need another guard. We literally have two scholarship guards on the roster. I'm certain Knueppel/Evans will play some time at the 2; I think Knueppel could even handle the point. Still, we realistically need at least one more guard - to have someone who can guard...

    I think we land Wooga Poplar. If not, there are still plenty of other guards. Max Shulga or KyKy Tandy wouldn't be terrible options.

    A backup point guard and an Ivy League insurance player who knows his role. That's about it. Just filling out the roster at this point.

    Is Chandler the only BYU player coming here?

    He won't be back at BYU. 99% chance it's either the NBA Draft or Kentucky. He just hasn't declared his intentions one way or the other. If he enters the portal, absolutely expect him at Kentucky.

    Is Chandler the only BYU player coming here?

    Saunders will likely commit soon... Jaxon Robinson is good enough to be drafted this year. If he plays another year of college basketball, it will almost certainly be at Kentucky. And then, of course, Chandler. That's a solid trio of wings. That's probably it. Hall didn't see eye-to-eye with...

    Utah State had 13 new scholarship players this year. They won the MWC title - and they also won a game in the tournament for the first time in over 20 years. We'll have much more talented players. I think we'll be alright.

    9 points, 5 assists, 36% 3-pt. 3 to 1 assist to turnover ratio. Would be great to have someone like that off the bench and give you 15-20 minutes... Aidan Mahaney would be cool, too.
