Those 2 would fill their available scholarships. Can only bring WO's if anyone.

This next year is about development first making the tournament 2nd.

I am hopeful that the RMs can come in and make a big difference

BYU will end up playing a lot of small ball or monster defense on tall teams.

Where does our height come from?

Lots of calcium and a tall bone frame

That’s a really small roster, even with Njie on it.

Isaac Johnson is the definition of thin and inexperienced frontcourt. should

A frontcourt with Njie and Johnson would be much deeper and experienced than…

Johnson was a big miss and head scratcher

Yes. RM development is my hope... you just can never predict it.

I am failing to see how anything with Isaac Johnson could be "experience"

Johnson would be size and depth at a position that we are critically small…

Is it really depth if he isn't good enough to play?

BYUheaven

He would absolutely play at BYU.

Zastava

5/17/22 1:56pm

Then why didn't BYU recruit him in the portal? I would imagine if Pope and

BYUheaven

They did recruit him. He chose Utah State over BYU.

Do you think he would start next year though? I don't, and very likely he didn't

You keep making the Seneca comparison. These are two very different players.

There are differences, but I think there are clearly similarities…

Aiken is a dream role player for any coach. 3 and D. Literally what every

archie

That’s the thing. He’s not a great shooter.

What you missed is that folks can't get over his HS rankings ...

runnincoug

5/17/22 2:03pm

He wouldn’t add experience. He would add size and depth.

Zastava

5/17/22 2:06pm

Well, you said experience, but whatever. He does add size, objectively, but ...

runnincoug

The coaches did chase him. He chose to go elsewhere.

Hs rankings yes, based on potential, but his rankings weren't due to his hs

palangi

I think his HS ranking was based on a 6'11" guy who can shoot the three.

Mostlyaccurate

I think we could have one of the better BYU shooting teams next year.

Something important with Gideon and Spencer....when Knight was injured both

Such a great point. SJ and GG finished well, the 3 position was a major logjam

I wouldn’t expect any of the RM’s to be shooting those types percentages…

Zastava

You should expect the numbers to dip coming off the mission. But they all know

Hall will get minutes (outside of getting another PG transfer)

Zac Seljaas would disagree. There's always hope.

Zac seems to be the exception, not the rule. It’s possible one or more…

Actually, I expect Fouss to develop a decent 3 point shot over the off season

slatecoug

5/17/22 2:23pm

That'd be great. I think he hit a couple in the blue and white game last year

Mostlyaccurate

Yoeli took several years to develop that. It doesn't happen quickly

Cougforgood

5/17/22 4:16pm

It depends on the player, how hard they work, their shooting mechanics, and most importantly, their starting point.

Weird post. You do realize different players are different, right? It may take one guy a lot longer than
