Coach Young: Welcome, I’ve got some great advice to help you out!

BYU I Bleed Blue

3:19pm

Did I just become a basketball insider?

kimdaddy35

3:19pm

I think I would’ve rather kept aly then Richie or Dallin.

HimmerFredette

3:19pm

Nope. The other two are way more valuable to the team and both

Dangerous

3:19pm

No way. Aly is an incredible player but fizzled out in crunch time and in the

Cougz19

3:20pm

Saunders all day every day. Every team needs a do-it-all hustler like him. He is

BlooCoug

3:20pm

Our defense dropped off a cliff the last month and a half. We need to keep

BYUheaven

3:20pm

He was fun & his offense legit. He'll be missed, but I'll be fine w replacing him w a two-way player w some length.

SinkingQuffa

3:20pm

Somebody pinch me, this is so cool

jigidajrit

3:18pm

Can you imagine Book and CP3 coming to BYU to play some pickup ball with our boys? It’s gonna happen!!

RalphWiggam

3:20pm

I thought Khalifa was our 2nd most important player after Hall this last year

Hup

3:18pm

but he did go to Kentucky 😉

TheRowdy

3:18pm

RE: but he did go to Kentucky 😉

Hup

3:20pm

What Utah sports media dude insisted Burgess was the only one being interviewed?

Croweater

3:17pm

I can’t remember but his job should be in jeopardy

HimmerFredette

3:20pm

At least Aly didn’t hit us with the “with that being said.”

CougarGuy84

3:15pm

Now Aly is a good model for how to say goodbye with grace and gratitude

Indy Coug

3:13pm

We were lucky to have him and he was a fun watch. Wish him the best

jg94

3:14pm

Now was that so hard?

Bandersnatch

3:14pm

Sheppard from Kentucky going pro

RenoCoug

3:12pm

To the Jazz?

I'mBatman

3:20pm

Louisville it is

kansascougar

3:12pm

RE: Louisville it is

HimmerFredette

3:13pm

Ton of fun to watch when he was cooking. I'll miss him.

Ham

3:14pm

Sad to see him go. But I get it. No ties to the new staff. I wish him the best.

CougLyfe

3:14pm

I'll miss him and his little arms

Belboz

3:15pm

Weird choice. College bball is weird

whoneedscorners?

3:16pm

I don’t get it. BYU is a better program than Louisville at present. Maybe $?

BlooCoug

3:16pm

I’ve always thought the general Kentucky area was very welcoming of Muslims

DKN

3:18pm

Could be sour grapes but I think Khalifa would be the least impactful of

whoneedscorners?

3:11pm

It will help us defensively. Our bigs were awful on the PnR. We were lit up

BYUheaven

3:13pm

I think he is a really big loss. He was playing out of shape on one knee and he

kimdaddy35

3:13pm

You definitely don't want to lose your best passer when you also lack guards

Plato

3:15pm

Would have been nice to have him, but he was 4th or 5th most important to keep

Dr T-bone

3:16pm

I kind of like the idea of some assonance in the name. Utah Yahoos

BW84 All-American

3:10pm

The Utah Army of Heleman. We’d already have a theme song

HimmerFredette

3:08pm

*armies

Hambone

3:09pm

“Fighting Teancums”

Hawk in the 303

3:10pm

First impressions count, and “Utah Hockey Team” isn’t a good one

Warner

3:08pm

It’s only temporary. 3 months doesn’t give them enough time for a high quality

BlooCoug

3:11pm

Aly is going to Louisville.

RdF3 Inactive user

3:08pm

Haven't followed. Why Louisville?

NOCAL_YFAN

3:08pm

Live in popes shadow

CougarGuy84

3:11pm

My guess: an international connection on their roster.

SinkingQuffa

3:11pm

They probably gave him the most money

JuicyJam

3:13pm

I know the rules say we can't pay you foreigners... but here at Louisville we believe...

SinkingQuffa

3:15pm

Why? Isn’t Lousville down? They recently fired their coach.

BlooCoug

3:08pm

Great, he can go there

FatherOFive

3:09pm

All of our bigs now in and the future should study his passing film. Vision is

NOCAL_YFAN

3:11pm

When he was dialed in, he was very good.

Bob Vance

3:12pm

He was super fun, very effective.

Madam Pattirini

3:12pm

Sounds like he plans on redshirting this upcoming season as well.

cougarfan84

3:14pm

Sweet we can get him back when he’s healed lol

bigbossbyu

3:15pm

Is he really? Interesting. Do you have a link to that info?

kimdaddy35

3:16pm

RE: Is he really? Interesting. Do you have a link to that info?

cougarfan84

3:18pm

1 hour 7 minutes into a meeting with 5 people on how to send out a group email. No bueno.

TADOW Truly Addicted User

3:07pm

The email coulda been an email

CougarGuy84

3:08pm

Honestly, I don't think Aly was going to fit very well into what Coach Young is going to do.

kccougar VABL

3:07pm

How so? Didn’t he say he wants to run 5 out?

BYUheaven

3:08pm

Alys out

CougarGuy84

3:05pm

RE: Alys out

NOCAL_YFAN

3:05pm

Sounds like it

Adrielle

3:08pm

Happens. He was great early on, but faded the last third of the year.

Benfica1

3:10pm

SLC makes SO much more sense for a hockey team than Phoenix, was just a joke

Mitty

3:04pm

Yep. Utah is the snow sports capital of the USA. And we are about to be awarded

BlooCoug

3:10pm

It'd be kinda funny if athletes just sent nice notes every once in a while.

Ham

3:04pm

Yeah no. We have enough vaguebook posting as it is.

NOCAL_YFAN

3:05pm

Key words "I'll always remember fondly."

FatherOFive

3:06pm

Those are my words, not his.

Ham

3:07pm

Well, your words just condemned him to leave

FatherOFive

3:08pm

Honestly, I'm not worried about players that leave.

BlueFever

3:02pm

You don't care if all of the good players we have just walk out the door?

kimdaddy35

3:04pm

Well KY said he wants to run 5 out so Aly fits the system

BYUheaven

Utah Golden Yewtzz

Mitty

Golden Youths.

BW84

Utah Gulleys, and the mascot could be a blue Yeti. Historical puns, naturally.

eyes4byu

2:59pm

what does this mean from Aly?

4slyce

2:58pm

He gone

Lifer

2:59pm

Yup. Sounds like a good-bye to me too.

BlueFever

3:00pm

I take it to mean he's gone

BYU Statsman

2:59pm

RE: what does this mean from Aly?

darkcoug

2:59pm

He’s about to announce a commitment. Probably Louisville

provoprodigy

2:59pm

that's nice of him to say thanks at least

4slyce

3:01pm

I think it means he is staying forever at BYU. Least that's what my fan ears

NOCAL_YFAN

2:59pm

sounds like it to me, that's great news!

4slyce

3:00pm

He gone. But I understand why.

CougLyfe

3:00pm

“That having been said…”

Hawk in the 303

3:00pm

I like that he left that part out

palangi

3:01pm

He gone

BYUheaven

3:00pm

He probably saw all the angst against Pope and just wanted to get the thank you out of the way

P-Boy Squad

3:00pm

Yep, seems pretty simple too

palangi

3:01pm

It means he's light years ahead of Pope in the EQ level.

Division Bell

3:02pm

Classy

Blueto

3:02pm

This is ridiculous. I want my language back. He IS gone.

kimdaddy35

Live footage of Mark Pope reading that thank you note:

Hambone

3:04pm

First reaction to me after reading that isn’t that he’s gone. We’ll see

bigbossbyu

3:04pm

UK fans think he’s going to Louisville and UL fans think he’s going to Kentucky

whoneedscorners?

3:05pm

Let me help you out. Read it again, but at the end, add, "With that being said..."

kccougar

3:05pm

Classy but vague.

BlooCoug

3:07pm

I'm curious what he is looking for somewhere else that he doesn't have at BYU?

cougarmeister

3:08pm

may be play-style, he was slower than slow

palangi

3:13pm

If you feel you need to move on we will miss you. We wish you well. Good

FatherOFive

Fly into Rome. 3 days in Rome... Siena stop on way to Florence 2 days....1 day in Venice... 1 day in Milan/Lake Como

Soupie

So much to see. Pisa and Venice are two places I didn’t care much for but Rome

Chefcurry

Wasn't that impressed with Venice either but everyone feels it's a place you need at least once.

How much does Hall and Saunders

BYU71

2:46pm

Both RM’s. You have to guess they like the environment. That counts forsomething

Big Daddy D

2:47pm

Are we talking $1000 difference or $200k difference?

The Y's Insider

2:47pm

Thought Hall liked it but maybe wrong. Seems Richie is much more attached.

Soupie

2:48pm

If we want Hall back it's going to be 400k minimum.

CougLyfe

Wow, really? Has it put a demand like that out there?

runnincoug

That's what Steven Ashworth got at Creighton.

BYU-Provo

We're competing with Creighton on this one. Hall

CougLyfe

And I agree

NOCAL_YFAN

Hall has more upside, but is not as good today as Ashworth was when he signed

I hope we pay it. And I hope he shoots more than 50% from FT.

Agreed. I would pay it.

It all depends on what your pool is. If you have $400,000 for the whole team

Remember. CC is gone and that's a whole lot of NIL $$ open now

CougLyfe

I could go for that. I like Blizzard better… with a yeti mascot.

I think the whole point would be how it rolls off your tongue "The Utah Yeti".
