Since those are the two things that are hardest for BYU to overcome in
recruiting, I think it is a valid point.

Pretty cool that he tweeted a quote of himself.

I wonder where he will go in 2019...

Nice choice, Popoola.

Given the state of BYU's program, it probably is.

didn't the Utes lose in the first round of the NIT also?

And what is the state of Utah's program?

Two NCAA appearances in the last 3 years.

4/22/17 1:42pm
Wow.
Crush4
4/22/17 1:43pm
Also a coach with more who matched Rose's
ironman1315
4/22/17 1:45pm
You could also say 3 in the last 10 years. Perspective.
cougarnerd
4/22/17 1:47pm
So what is the trend in programs then?
AndyDwyer
4/22/17 1:54pm
Is 3 years enough to show a trend? Not sure we know.
cougarnerd
4/22/17 2:29pm
Not an underachieving mess
AndyDwyer

I think some ute fans may disagree.
thebruce

Especially after that loss to Oregon St.
SUAVO

I certainly do.

He had an offer to Stanford...

Like idiot utefans with their non commitable offers

Are you UtahErrorCorrection's little brother?

I thought he was your dupe with that name.

Nope. Just bored in a county convention listening to endless speeches.

Honor code is a pretty legit excuse. A lot of people would prefer to not live the honor code. Even LDS athletes

Athletic kid, probably an easier transition to college at Utah both socially and
Mathlete

I don't think academics are an issue.
thebruce
4/22/17 1:25pm
College academics can be a step-up for most kids and the UofU is likely less
Mathlete
4/22/17 1:27pm
I'm pretty sure he was recruited by ivy league schools.
thebruce
4/22/17 1:30pm
I'm pretty sure I didn't question his intelligence
Mathlete
4/22/17 1:32pm
You did imply easier academics was likely a factor.
thebruce
4/22/17 1:36pm
You questioned his academic motivation and/or ability
Solomon Levi
4/22/17 1:40pm
Neither actually
Mathlete
4/22/17 2:06pm
What, exactly, did you mean when you said
Solomon Levi
4/22/17 2:17pm
That undergrad course work and level of competition at Utah won't be as hard
Mathlete
4/22/17 2:40pm
So academic motivation then...
Solomon Levi
4/22/17 5:13pm
I didn't say that. Reread what I wrote.
Mathlete
4/22/17 5:20pm
Why did he de-commit? How did we lose him?

BYU students making vulgar jokes about someone's name? Unlikely.
spoxjox
4/22/17 1:32pm
Who says it will be students?
LDTemplar
4/22/17 1:33pm
Idk if my examples are really vulgar?
coug719
4/22/17 1:49pm
He's subconsciously got his eyes closed in denial about Coach 80k and his future
DumpsterFire
4/22/17 1:29pm
Coach Rose is so good at recruiting!
Dscharf
4/22/17 1:30pm
Are we sure about that?

4/22/17 2:08pm
Nothing like playing for a coach the majority of players can't stand.
LaVellIfIKnow

The irony is strong here.
jrj84105
4/22/17 1:31pm
Yeah, that surprises me
Cougar TD
4/22/17 1:39pm
I didn't even realize the Utes were going after him?
ColumbusCoug
4/22/17 1:37pm
Probably. Kid is an opportunist.
thebruce
4/22/17 1:59pm
A good opportunity for him this late in the game. He will likely play more...
icecougar
4/22/17 2:42pm
Why couldn't he choose a pic where his eyes are open?
fredetteaboutit13
4/22/17 1:38pm
Well, that sucks.
cougarnerd
4/22/17 1:41pm
That is too bad, makes you wonder what the players think of the BYU program.
Blue for Life
4/22/17 1:44pm
Good, it will be nice to beat him
I'mBatman
4/22/17 1:46pm
Well....poo!

Nice choice, Lov... err Popoola
monkeycowboy

This kid committed to BYU months ago but things soon went silent on all fronts.
PortlandBlue
4/22/17 1:59pm
Would have liked to have him, but it is what it is. GO COUGS!

Big loss
Cougarclaw
4/22/17 2:06pm
Big loss is questionable
gww687
4/22/17 2:12pm
We need depth. We need players. This is a big loss.
RSLCoug
4/22/17 2:22pm
Desperately need players like him. I agree.
The Dude Abides
4/22/17 2:23pm
Hope he sucks it up
Backcountry
4/22/17 2:33pm
Well that sucks. Hard to know but seems like coaches have up on him.
