📌 Video: BYU athletes in the Olympic trials and games? - CougarBoard Question of the Week: June 17, 2024 View

[Y's Guys Podcast] Y’s Guys

11:15am

Strange to think that we felt this way two months ago...

cougarmeister

12:06pm

"We"?

DJROSS

12:07pm

*...some BYU fans...*

cougarmeister

12:09pm

I think most of us were in a pretty good panic when we found out he was leaving.

cougfanblue

12:10pm

yes yes yes this was me. I was dispondent when Pope left. Little did we know....

nybyblue

12:11pm

I’m not sure which 2 start, and which 2 come off the bench, but I think a

cougaman

12:06pm

Catchings certainly more talented than Waterman but

CycloneCoug

12:05pm

We will see if he has the same drive to rebound. He feels like a better shooter.

Boring

12:06pm

Certainly more expensive

Cougrrrs Roll

12:07pm

I think that is a good perspective to have. For as exciting as it is to have these young players

jvr7

12:10pm

If we had kept Waterman, I'd say this team is really good

What is the projected rotation at this point?

BYUHawk

12:03pm

We plan on starting 7 guys. It's the only way to make the minutes work.

brj8

12:04pm

I just want to see a lineup where our center is our shortest player on the court

Methusaleh22

And to think if the Suns somehow made a Finals run, KY would have started today

ProvoProwler

Thank you, Jack Gohlke, Dan Hurley, UK basketball, Phoenix Suns, etc.

GlutealGuy

That would have been hard, but it also would have been great. Can you imagine

LifeLongLakerFan

12:12pm

Just donated.

Turn and Cough

11:52am

sadly... a donation of that size will probably secure tickets 8 rows from the top...

HarlemCoug

11:54am

10 tickets atleast. She's a pretty good kid.

Turn and Cough

11:55am

for 10 seats? Totally worth it.

HarlemCoug

11:57am

Some give some...other's gave all

Blueto

11:55am

Nice try. But that isn't how recruiting works.

Tokolosh

11:56am

As if a Ute knows anything about recruiting.

Our boyz on cue. (Sorry if SGC.)

SinkingQuffa Intervention Needed

11:50am

Couldn't get past 3 mins. Love we got Catchings though.

GfB

11:54am

It's interesting the twists BYU stigma takes. Even when we get the cool coach.

SinkingQuffa

11:57am

I know ACC coaches complained about how the Big 12 schedules

It’s especially advantageous moving forward as most years you will have lots of

As a Purdue grad and fan, coming to BYU takes away the sting quite well.

Only come to BYU if you want to play in the NBA.

Does this make the u of u a feeder school? Yewts be like.....

#PROvo

RenoCoug

11:55am

I like the hashtag #PROvo - it's catchy and reinforces the theme KY is trying to establish. Suggest fans use it too.

Division Bell Recovering

11:45am

better than when the football staff would use #prOVO

molodyets

11:47am

Yep, but to have lasting power and not look silly, KY needs to follow through.

Buster Scruggs

12:09pm

Remember recruiting was supposed to be one of the question marks for Coach Young

jvr7 All-American

11:45am

It was?

StantonMac

11:47am

I think the general consensus was that people liked the hire but with the exception of brief stint at UVU 15 years ago

jvr7

11:58am

Definitely. We knew he’d need assistants with recruiting experience.

Enjoy that 4 point BBall win last year, Utes. Might not ever happen again.

MightyFreakingCougar

I've been to two games @UU, both times BYU favored, both times BYU lost.

Do we have enough minutes to satisfy all the stars?

TRUE_BLUE_COUGY

wondering that myself

byukarl

11:44am

No. Sadly someone will not play as much as they want and will transfer after

ballen

11:44am

maybe before the season

byukarl

11:46am

That is a problem I relish

Archaea

11:44am

No, but this is the same problem every team that gets top-rated recruits has.

LifeLongLakerFan

11:46am

Great problem to have, something all too programs deal with

JOPE

11:49am

Minutes are important, of course. But so is development. Players will take less

SLIVER
