Better than Davies ever was??? More physically imposing I can believe...

I thought long and hard about that one, because we can all be guilty of

PGVikingDad

10/25/16 2:00pm

more skilled is different than better. Childs certainly isn't better and it

Fair enough.

Davies was a very, very good player his Junior and Senior years......

His BIGGEST problem was picking up stupid reaching fouls.

Deseret News article suggested that Guinn might be a starter. Is that possible?

AF Cougar

if Bryant is out either Guinn or Leifson will start

Even after practice has started there are some great mysteries

they go TJ, back to Emery.

IMO Beo will start over Leifson if it actually came down to that...at least he was recruited and had multiple D1 offers.

To fill the shooting specialist role, though--that's probably not obvious.

I think that would take major improvement over the minutes I saw from him

I've heard Dastrup needs to lose a few. How did his shape look?

OpusX

10/25/16 2:06pm

he had a nice sized gut you don't just get overnight.

I was thinking the same thing when I looked at the video recap. He is certainly

On point #1. Did you ever play NBA Jam?

DB Cooper

10/25/16 2:21pm

Haven't played that one.

PGVikingDad

10/25/16 2:34pm

That must be why you hate the name.

DB Cooper

10/25/16 2:34pm

I'll need to be convinced, but I'm open-minded. Just a lame name on the surface

Ah. Good point.

I love the name 'cause I dig the song "Higher" by both Sly Stone & Tina Turner.

It's a generational thing. That is what the announcer would shout on a big dunk

An example from the old school game...

doctorthunderpants

I love the name because I played NBA Jam

ColdFusion1989

10/25/16 4:23pm

Me too. It's a perfect name, in my opinion.

DB Cooper

10/25/16 4:31pm

Dastrup is built like a 23 year old man, and looks like a 30 year old man.

10/25/16 2:47pm

Okay, the porn 'stache needs to go, but I like the attitude behind it.

PGVikingDad

10/25/16 2:53pm

A kid has to have a ton of self confidence to turn down Ohio State.

TripleCrownCoug

10/25/16 2:58pm

Or just some specific religious beliefs.

Polecat

10/25/16 3:07pm

Or a crazy streak. I'll take either--or both.

Childs is better than Davies ever was? HUH?

That flushing sound is your credibility leaving with the Davies comment

I could certainly live to regret it.
