Jax among “hardest portal or pros” decisions. Either way, he’s gone for BYU.

Soupie Grandma Sycamore

3:59pm

With Chaz off the board, UK will be throwing all kinds of $$ at Jax should he decide to pull out of draft.

CalGTR

4:01pm

If Jaxson goes to UK I think he gets buried on the bench behind 4 stars

ChubbyMoose

Could happen, but a lot of UK folks seem to believe they have a hole in their starting unit. I'm not that familiar with

Would the #74 rated player for the draft end up warming the bench for UK? Serious question because idk their roster well

After Jax designated last season as his senior, I figured he was gone from BYU.

Lanier was a miss but we have 3 PGs already. Need bigs.

We have 1 average PG, one in case of emergency break glass PG, and one unproven with potential that isn’t ready to

Blue2thebone

4:00pm

Was hoping Lanier could be a wing and scoring threat which both seem to be needs

BYU Fan

4:03pm

Yes, he would have been a candidate to fill the Jax role.

CalGTR

4:12pm

We needed an athlete in the backcourt (both ways) & a scoring upgrade. Alas. Not sure we can get both in one recruit

SinkingQuffa

4:07pm

Chaz is a PG, Egor is a 4. Some interesting perspectives can be found on CB. Although some confusion is understandable

CalGTR

4:12pm

For NF, Chaz was 3rd in apg(for guards) this yr & 4th in apg for guards last yr

wickedgame71

4:21pm

Egor isn't a 4. He plays 1-3. Mostly 1-2.

RootieBoy

Yeah he’s a combo guard/point guard. Don’t know where a forward is coming from,

Born2Fish

Kalifa has been replaced. Not the exact same type of player, but a better 5 overall. Rest is yet to come, in some form.

CalGTR

4:00pm

actually the numbers favor Khalifa as a better 5 overall than Keita for last

cwilke1

Keita is a much better shot blocker and rebounder. Personally, I'd prefer those traits in my center.
