He's allowed to project, I guess. I don't see it happening

RGGeemer

He still carries our name. And KY declared him hopeful & open game just yesterday. He still fits our roster very well.

SinkingQuffa

Potential starting 5 b-ball. Lots of offense but how would we do on D?

OU Cougar

There is basically no way Keba and Fouss both start since neither can shoot

I'm guessing without looking that Fous had the highest FG% on the team last year

CougarCanuck76

If Demin is at BYU longer than 1 year, perhaps KY plan to demonstrate he can help exceed NBA expectations didn't work.

That would make sense. RM has that big buy-out for him, so it would seem they have plans for him.

Of course. Let's be sure to give KY a little bit of slack as a neophyte college HC, too, though.
