Does the UK have a good league? Overseas might be good for him

This one would surprise me. This is a really weak draft class.

Jax? If he comes back to college I'd almost expect that. He'd be a huge signing for him.

He earned their trust on BYU’s dime though. He shouldn’t be doing the hard sell

That's not how the etiquette & ethics of college basketball have worked out, though.

SinkingQuffa

Apr 21, 10:33pm

Oh I agree. Ethical behavior isn’t really a thing in college sports these days.

It's been long-decided that coaches are within their rights to retain their roster as well as their staffs

SinkingQuffa

Just follow what everybody else is doing, Does NOT mean it's right.

Actually, most business & enterprises are dictated by their own etiquette (if not rules) of ethics.

Let's just let him decimate the BYU Bball program.

I like your takes but you have said Pope wouldn't cause recruiting issues

johnnybyu

Apr 21, 10:33pm

This is the way to go about it

spidercoug

Go re-read those posts. I said he wouldn't BEYOND THIS SEASON. And I meant it.

SinkingQuffa

Apr 21, 10:42pm

Well if he is successful with it he will keep doing it if he isn't he over

johnnybyu

Apr 21, 10:43pm

No he won't. He's retaining the best parts of his roster. Like many transient coaches try & succeed at doing.

SinkingQuffa

Apr 21, 10:44pm

If he is successful with 2+ lds players he he going to keep going after the top

johnnybyu

Apr 21, 10:47pm

At UK? I highly doubt it. Utah's recruiting market is pretty poor these days. And never came close to comparing

SinkingQuffa

Apr 21, 10:49pm

Yep if lds is his main pipeline best case scenario is UK is BYU. That won't go

spidercoug

Apr 21, 10:51pm

Never said he is gong to focus on lds players but if he has 2-4 on the roster

johnnybyu

Apr 21, 10:54pm

Pope isn't that way. He talked to recruits BYU had no chance of getting. Why

spidercoug

Apr 21, 10:50pm

I don't think he is going to go all in on every lds player. If successful with

johnnybyu

Apr 21, 10:51pm

So low 4* kids, when he can get 5*? I don't think so. Not with Pope

spidercoug

Apr 21, 10:54pm

Yet that is what he is doing this year. Of course he isn't filling the roster

johnnybyu

Apr 21, 10:55pm

because he has nobody on his roster and he already has relationships with them.

spidercoug

Apr 21, 10:59pm

Not unless they're highly exceptional. If he dips regularly into the LDS & Utah recruiting circles

SinkingQuffa

Apr 21, 10:55pm

It sux. But it shouldn't surprise us one bit. And we probably shouldn't let it upset us much, either.

SinkingQuffa

Apr 21, 10:47pm

I don't think so I think it's Pope over promising players. Toolson had one good

johnnybyu

Apr 21, 10:49pm

We don't have that same benefit of a new HC bringing a few players, unless he can bring KD & DB from Suns. 🙂

Soupie

I sure hope we can recruit some players through our assistant pickups.

SinkingQuffa

Apr 21, 10:51pm

Maybe. Hopefully for him the NBA.

kimdaddy35

Apr 21, 10:29pm

He’s not following Pope anywhere

kotacoug

Apr 21, 10:55pm

If you’re Jax and want a true shot at the NBA do you want to be coached by

You've got a point.

Apr 21, 11:06pm

My thoughts exactly, Big Daddy D!

Honestly, I'd stick w the coach that took me from off of everyone's radar to onto everyone's radar.
