Haws is very, very skilled. I believe he will be a special player at BYU.

I just don't think he'll physically be able to do what Chatman and Bryant will be able to do right off a mission. My guess at the starting 5 in 2016-17 is:

Bryant
Chatman
Emery
Davis
Mika

With Kaufusi and Toolson getting lots of minutes. I suspect TJ's minutes will be limited at first, but become more significant towards the middle and end of the season. He could be getting close to starters minutes as the cougs get ready for the tourney.

Here's something that is guaranteed to put a smile on your face:

Ham

I don't think your starting 5 is accurate

thebruce

8/4/15 10:32am

Kyle Davis will be starting.

thebruce

8/4/15 10:33am

It depends how fast Mika gets in shape. His physical talents are immense

dixdog

8/4/15 10:36am

Mika will be starting too.

thebruce

8/4/15 10:36am

Kyle will be the best post scorer this year. I expect Kaufusi to be a force on

dixdog

8/4/15 10:38am

Could be right. I chose Corbin over Kyle, but it'll probably be fluid.

Ham

8/4/15 10:37am

it won't be fluid. Davis starts and plays a ton of minutes.

Bluforever

8/4/15 2:27pm

Davis will be the only senior, likely the team leader, and probably best player

roseyscenario

8/4/15 11:55am

I dont know...I think 2016-17 could be a really good team.

8/4/15 3:47pm

you could be right.

roseyscenario

8/4/15 4:49pm

Definitely not. There's way a Frosh RM TJ Haws will be starting over guys

8/4/15 10:38am

I wouldn't count Haws out. He's the best recruit BYU has had the past few years.

dixdog

8/4/15 10:39am

Haws is very, very skilled. I believe he will be a special player at BYU.

8/4/15 2:16pm

Haws is not only very skilled but has a competitive fire and motor that

Bluforever

8/4/15 2:39pm

That's what I love most about him.

Ham

8/4/15 2:41pm

totally agree – opposing teams are going to HATE the Mika/Haws/Emery teams

SingleStrapBackpack

8/4/15 3:58pm

There's no question he'll see the floor. I'd have him on the court frequently

8/4/15 4:02pm

I disagree. Haws is going to be a special player from day one.

Ham

8/4/15 10:47am

I think it is a tossup with Haws...so I won't argue it either way.

thebruce

8/4/15 11:07am

I think Mika will start over Kaufusi, and Davis will start over Dastrup.

8/4/15 2:21pm

Until Corbin finds some hands I agree.

mantis mutu

8/4/15 5:32pm

I tend to agree with you, but let's all step back a sec

SingleStrapBackpack

8/4/15 12:39pm

No. I watched TJ play against BYU starters when he was a sophy in HS and he

Big Daddy D

8/4/15 5:51pm

Toolson has to prove himself. Bryant, Chapman or someone else could be there too

dixdog

8/4/15 10:45am

Chapman is playing for Utah, not BYU

kC Cougar

8/4/15 1:08pm

Chatman, sorry.

dixdog

8/4/15 1:29pm

No offense intended (in case you are a family member) but if Jake is

mtnKat

8/4/15 12:16pm

I'm actually excited about Toolson, think he could be a good 3 pt bomber for us

BYUfan92

8/4/15 12:53pm

Jake is going to be very good. Just wait.

Ham

8/4/15 2:04pm

I agree. And I believe we'll begin to see it this coming year.

Bluforever

RE: No offense intended (in case you are a family member) but if Jake is

Bullrider

8/4/15 3:11pm

Why would Toolson and CK put a smile on anyone's face?

Ash

8/4/15 1:36pm

What's with all the Jake hate? I think he'll end up contributing significantly

8/4/15 2:31pm

Having watched a lot of practices last season I know that

Ash

Close, but still smiling.

bstod

8/4/15 2:53pm

Aytes can't be discounted either.

dixdog

8/4/15 3:00pm

I agree with bstod on his starting lineup. and to think taht guys like seljaas

cybertiger7

8/4/15 3:23pm

I could see them bringing Mika off the bench but getting max minutes

Big Daddy D

8/4/15 6:13pm

I agree. I wonder if the spacing would be better if Mika came off the bench

ldssdl

8/4/15 6:15pm

No chance...

bstod

8/4/15 8:44pm

They actually already did that iirc

Big Daddy D

8/4/15 8:58pm

After an injury for a few games...not long term

bstod

8/4/15 9:51pm

It was the next seven games after the UOP loss in which Eric's minutes were

I think you are underestimating Hartsock

kC Cougar

8/4/15 7:20pm

Why write off Aytes? Hasn't looked good in July is but still recovering.

roseyscenario

8/4/15 9:09pm

Adam (Ham) I like it. But I would have Davis starting at the 3 or 4.

cybertiger7

8/4/15 2:54pm

Holy crap

Harrison0Yfan

8/4/15 3:26pm

You don't think Treebeard Hamson will be around after this year?

mcnasty

8/4/15 3:48pm

The overlooked adversary that saves the day in the end. Fitting perhaps.

mantis mutu

8/4/15 5:35pm

I see Davis starting in Mikas place. W can have Corbin get the early fouls

ivanog

8/4/15 4:15pm

was it the gif of Bronco dancing that was supposed to put the smile on my face?

icecougar

8/4/15 4:17pm

Can't wait I don't even have a solid opinion who should start they all look good

8/4/15 5:23pm

Too many white dudes

Butler circa 2009

thebruce

Or Wisconsin this past year. Talent is talent. And some of these kids have

mantis mutu

8/4/15 6:36pm

You know what's cooler then that? We will have them back for 2017-2018

8/4/15 11:19pm

We are pretty well set up for the next 6 years

8/4/15 11:19pm

so much speculation. only 1 of those has actually shown us that he can be good.

COACHdrn

8/5/15 2:44am

most have shown they can be good.
