It’s just a pet peeve of mine when people get excited about a player making a few shots in a row in shoot around.
Even 15 in a row is considered mediocre in the realm of shooters.

I know that Wade is actually really good, but I don't get excited over someone sitting there making some shots.

I think the bigger story is he seems to be healthy. We need another Guard who can play the Point.

Again, you can’t take anything away from that video. It doesn’t prove he’s healthy.

I mean, I don't think anyone sees it as hard proof, but it's encouraging to see

Has nothing to do with usu or byu. I just have this hobby horse about seeing people online get excited that some player

Yeah, but what I mean is it's exciting for fans of the team to see a player

Not everyone remembers swish. But I do. Go Aggies!

Yes, I’m an Aggie fan first, but I’m also a fan of BYU.

There's a phrase for guys like you: "Not a true BYU fan."

C'mon man, that's not fair. No spittin on our own. Even if he is an Aggie 1st.

I expect nothing from him. Anything more than that would be a pleasant surprise.

I'm not expecting him to, but in the course of the season it could EASILY happen

^^Never seen Wade play. Dudes a legit scorer. He will be a fun one.

No one has ever doubted he was a great player and scorer.

I think more than a few fans are unaware how good he was/is.

Yep, I'm with you, if he gives us 8 minutes a game the next two years

Given the type & level of player he is, we should expect a lot better than that.
SinkingQuffa
9/29/20 10:58pm
It's unfortunate but it made sense to relinquish the schollie, he hasn't yet
Mitty
9/29/20 11:15pm
As long as he's healthy & practicing, no reason to be fatalistic.

That “level of recruit” looked completely out of place at Gonzaga. Completely.

Wade is not seen as a PG at all. 3rd PG might be Harding or Johnson before Wade.

I could see Dave playing Wade at the 2 beyond short stretches, but not
SinkingQuffa
9/29/20 10:33pm
Won't he be too small to pair defensively with AB or BA? I figured he
Mitty

Averette is shorter, yet he will be on court with AB more than half the game.

Good point, we won't have big guards but we'll be big everywhere else.
Mitty
9/30/20 9:16am
Pope has several big guards who will play a lot. I believe you are correct

If Jesse's gonna play much this year it'll be because he forces the issue.
SinkingQuffa
9/30/20 10:08am
Averette's standing reach best's Wade's by 6 inches probably, though.

I know of a few BYU players who were healthy and couldn’t make 10 three pointers

I’m a crappy basketball player and can easily make 15 in a row.

Easily.

If you shoot 80% on uncontested threes then you will go 15/15 on 3.5% of your 15

Yeah, it doesn’t really work like that. There’s a lot of variables at play.
