I can pretty much guarantee you he won't make six figures next year
Mika didn't and he was a MUCH better prospect.

I think you're leaving out a couple of factors:

I didn't say it was fact, but it may be what he believes. I do know he's worried

amen...seriously people are dumb that can't see why this would be more appealing

I love this quote from you:

Except I don't think this action makes him selfish...and you do...so..

Actually you focused on one tiny aspect of a much larger post

I can't fault him for moving on. Graduates, he's married, and looking to maybe

I don't know where you're getting 200 K. I remember seeing an article where

Funny as basketball isn't known to trash your body

the point is, they are just maximizing their years to play professionally.

You've never heard of players with bad knees? Ankles, microfracture repairs

No I have never heard of Brandon Roy

If he's earned his degree, then I fully support him. That's what college is for.

IMO, Bryant's situation is entirely different than Mika's. Mika leaving only

You guys act like Bryant is the only one to have ever suffered a knee injury
kimdaddy35
4/19/18 12:09pm
It’s what is on his mind. He says it impacted how he played last season.

Anyone who would rather play for free in front of 20K fans in Provo than . . .
Coop
4/19/18 11:22am
Agreed- though I wouldn't call it playing for free. Don't they get a stipend?

Probably same group of people that woukd send their kid to play at BYU instead of standford
BlueFrog
4/19/18 11:37am
Nope. I’d hope my kid picked BYU over Stanford for undergrad degree. I don’t

That Jimmer Fredette is such a tool...right? Is that what you are saying?
kimdaddy35
4/19/18 12:04pm
I'm not the one who's unsure about the premise
Coop

Is that a threat? LOL

No, it means that your response wasn't a valid response to my comment

Bryant's interview on BYUSN started poorly, with EB referring to himself in

You think it’s odd that a woman would rather live in Europe while her husband makes six figures than stay in Provo

Most BYU ballers that go to Euro DO make six figures, Mika was the exception

Average US players will make around 65K a year. The best players will make

When I told my wife we had the chance to live in Europe she was thrilled.

It's not a total no-brainer if they are thinking long-term

Honestly question...do you travel to Europe much? You mentioned you don't

Wife might be one of those Utah must live down the steeet from mom girls.

Not to mention, once you're IN Europe, traveling is sooo much cheaper.

I lived there... it sucks compared to the US but... I am totally American biased

Traveled there? Yes, great place to visit. I have had many friends

The ones that don't like living overseas are the ones too afraid to explore.

Completely agree. I had Soldiers that wouldn't even get a passport for the three

If you were military that is not the same, especially if you were on a military

Yeah, I'm thinking along the same lines. It's really discouraging.

The real question for Mika and Bryant is whether playing an extra year at BYU
Iron Coug
4/19/18 11:39am
Another year for EB really does nothing... Mika on the other hand...
Pretorian
4/19/18 11:46am
Why would another year do nothing for Bryant? This is just plain false.
kimdaddy35
4/19/18 12:00pm
Actually I think that it is acurate
cornellcoug
4/19/18 1:26pm
I'm assuming that EB and those closest to him know him and his abilities better
Iron Coug
4/19/18 1:41pm
Elijah actually compares very closely with Jimmer
kimdaddy35
4/20/18 12:12pm
He compares closely to Jimmer just not as good.
Metallicat
4/20/18 12:53pm
OR EB graduated, he’s 23, and has no reason to stay in school other than playing

College helps us become employable. Looks like it worked for EB. Get over it.
