This. Seems like his commitment to BYU was really just a commitment to Pope.

Seems to have been more interested in playing for Pope than he was in playing for BYU. It also means all those rumors about him considering a transfer to Utah since Burgess went there were likely all false.

Hopefully I'm wrong and we can somehow get him to reconsider, but I'm guessing he's pretty locked in to Pope and Kentucky at this point.

I'd say that CB is wrong on that point. It's apparent his commitment was to Pope

Seems like a shaky commitment to BYU and a strong commitment to Pope

I'm confident if he had had a Kentucky offer in high school he never

But you need to identify the enthusiasm. That is key because they won’t always feel it

Apr 18, 4:07pm

Is that true if he has verbally and publicly committed? I thought it’s hands off

Apr 18, 1:23pm

after a verbal commit, the recruiters are just risking annoyance to keep talking

If he hasn't signed an NLI, other teams "can" talk to him.

No he won't come back, because if he does the NCAA

If Collin wants to play in the NBA he needs Kevin Young as his coach.
