Why would any high profile LDS athlete go to BYU if they are getting looks from

Yeah, the Church asks kids NOT to serve.

That and this board looks at it from their own perspective

Jimmer didnt have looks from any better schools

Doesn't matter

it does if you are trying to answer the original posters question.

BlueFrog

Fine

bushy7

Point is that BYU gave Jimmer an awesome platform to become uber-famous.

This is such an obvious and easy answer. LDS Girl populations at BYU.

Was it Snoop that asked him not to serve?

This is why it's so important to win in March

This is what I am alluding to^^^

Best duke player in the nba was grant hill

concolor couguar

4/28/15 9:29am

I would find it 'beyond shocking' if Church asked Parker to not go on mission.

Bluforever

4/28/15 9:30am

actually false-

1984coug

4/28/15 9:33am

Name a BYU player that would have had an NBA career if he'd gone to another

Shawn Bradley

Sure, must've been the BYU nutrition program back then.

Left Shark Coug

4/28/15 9:42am

It's only our opinions so we disagree. Laittner didn't do much in NBA either

Bluforever

4/28/15 9:35am

yes, you are right

1984coug

4/28/15 9:36am

Byu put a big man in the nba just 2 years ago

concolor couguar

4/28/15 9:38am

putting in the NBA and excelling are different

1984coug

4/28/15 9:40am

you just said byu can't develop big man

concolor couguar

4/28/15 9:43am

we all agree we don't develop an inside game

1984coug

4/28/15 9:44am

I don't. That is purely people over reacting the last 2 seasons

concolor couguar

4/28/15 9:45am

fair enough- I respect your opinion, I personally don't think we have

1984coug

4/28/15 9:47am

Eric Mika is much more likely than kaufusi

concolor couguar

4/28/15 9:48am

Completely wrong

Gustav

4/28/15 10:01am

No. 1 scorer doesn't equal best. Even in the NBA that's not true.

Cochise Cat

4/28/15 10:07am

The "Jabari was told not to go on a mission" has 0 chance of being true.

Lance71

4/28/15 9:50am

The church would never encourage someone not to serve no matter their situation

CougarBacker

4/28/15 9:36am

Why? I don't understand this mentality. OF COURSE there are exceptions. Your

HarlemCoug

4/28/15 9:44am

And you think the apostle giving info to somebody to not go on a mission would

Lance71

4/28/15 9:53am

You mean like writing the information of the God directed hit on Laban down on

HarlemCoug

4/28/15 9:59am

If you really think God commanding Lehi to kill Laban and God asking Jabari not

CougarBacker

4/28/15 11:11am

they both show exceptions to a general rule - the comparison seems reasonable

HarlemCoug

4/28/15 11:23am

Great! I'll admit it is possible that a quorum of the 12 member could tell

CougarBacker

4/28/15 12:43pm

Here's why.

BarraCouga

4/28/15 9:36am

but what about this-

1984coug

4/28/15 9:39am

Sure...but...

BarraCouga

4/28/15 10:07am

And I think all of your points are valid

1984coug

4/28/15 9:41am

you have it totally backwards

run26

4/28/15 11:57am

Who is more famous for being Mormon, Steve Young or Danny White?

BarraCouga

4/28/15 12:28pm

your comparisons are absolutely ridiculous

run26

4/28/15 1:18pm

AFTER college. Let me spell this out for you...A F T E R college

BarraCouga

4/28/15 1:42pm

i guess if a player attended BYU it is assumed they are LDS so yes

run26

4/28/15 1:57pm

And those choices belong to the individuals involved.

BarraCouga

4/28/15 2:12pm

we can agree to disagree

run26

4/28/15 2:25pm

Wow. Do either Steve Young or Danny Ainge live in Utah?

BarraCouga

4/28/15 3:55pm

i get your point but think about the original post

run26

4/28/15 4:39pm

Oh I would concede during college all day long from an interpersonal standpoint.

BarraCouga

4/28/15 6:48pm

Buddy. The Church didn't ask Jabari to skip out on a mission.

Cochise Cat

4/28/15 9:45am

Why not?

HarlemCoug

4/28/15 9:50am

Because they don't do that, ever. They used to, but that was a long time ago.

Cochise Cat

4/28/15 10:01am

I think every player should make up his own mind and then pray about the

HarlemCoug

4/28/15 9:47am

yes, pray about it. Then call Rose or Mendenhall and accept.

Bluforever

4/28/15 9:50am

How is it different for athletes?

Gustav

4/28/15 10:03am

Probably because of his notoriety?? Perhaps it becomes too much of distraction

HarlemCoug

4/28/15 10:07am

For same reason that non-athletes go to BYU over elite schools. They love the

I didn't bring up the gospel atmosphere- I understand that logic completely

1984coug

You asked: Why? That is why!

roseyscenario

4/28/15 1:49pm

they owe it to themselves to go to BYU

4/28/15 11:31am

Better schools? What are the criteria? To me, BYU is at the top of my list.
