There is only one way to mitigate the loss of Mike effectively...

and that is if Dastrup comes in and plays to his potential. At 6'10 he has the size, he can stretch the defense with his outside shot, and he is a big (hopefully not as big) body to take up space. BYU has scoring, but the presence of Mika on the glass and down low will be missed.

Couldn't agree more, Mika's individual talent was phenomenal

BYU isn't going anywhere until there is a greater commitment to defense

The two biggest keys to success are defense and rebounding. Offense can take a

*Consistency* on defense is what was lacking. We had great defensive moments.

You can tell when a team is well-coached defensively. Rose

I just want our team to have enough depth than when/if someone isn't willing

agree 100% with this. Nice to see that Rose went out and filled the last two

Rose went and got athletes; not walkons upgraded to schollies.

Amen, roster construction is much better

We do not need to replace Mika's production. We need to play to our strengths

"promising big men Ryan Andrus, Dalton Nixon and Luke Worthington" I want you

I like Andrus, he provided good quality minutes as a freshman and has the shot

Or you could read it as it is written: "promising big man Ryan Andrus, Dalton

He's referring to the "value of returning players" and then lists those guys.

Bostonblue

6/28/17 1:13pm

You specifically misquoted what the original post said and seemed to imply that

basman

6/28/17 2:37pm

Most CB arguments are just people intentionally or unintentionally misreading

Geez. Relax. Stop making a mountain out of mole hill. The same point remains.

Bostonblue

6/28/17 3:33pm

Sorry, but reading fail. "Man" Referring to Andrus. I believe that.

PJMort

6/28/17 3:43pm

okay, well at least you feel that way about one of them. If so, why

Bostonblue

6/28/17 3:48pm

For two, no three reasons.

Nice to hear about Dastrup's hard work. I'm really hoping several bigs develop.

If Childs is out w/ fouls or injury against a good opponent, we need help inside

Hope your right but don't see it that way.

I am optimistic for the team this year and next year

LOL if you think Andrus, Nixon, and Worthington contribute at all.

6/28/17 3:05pm

I like Andrus. He has put on 25-30 lbs. He was skilled but skinny before.

PJMort

6/28/17 4:00pm

I actually think Andrus will be a great addition to the team....

beauso79

6/28/17 11:10pm

Andrus has a nice skill set, inside and out for a big. Not athletic like Mika

If you're excited about Worthington, you've discredited all you CB posts.

IronPotato

Worthington is not a D-1 player.

Oldcougfan

6/29/17 7:25am

Worthington has grit and size. Always need a bouncer.

Coogar2

6/29/17 8:57am

He'd be a marginal JUCO talent.

6/29/17 10:46am

The main downer are the very real growing pains of a completely new team...

We have a left handed guard coming in? Final Four baby!

It could be an interesting team.
