What does being from Utah have anything to do with his ability?
If he were a non athletic white PG from out of state would that suddenly get you excited?

Before badmouthing Wade's stats fresh off a mission at Gonzaga....

Hard to get that excited about a short, somewhat nonathletic PG from Utah
Richbyu
7/11/18 3:36pm
So why do you think Gonzaga recruited him?
Indy Coug
7/11/18 3:37pm
I don't know. They usually get much more regarded players than Wade.
Richbyu
7/11/18 3:38pm
BYU "passed" because Frank Jackson had verbally committed
Indy Coug
7/11/18 3:39pm
OK. But only 2 offers. USU and Gonzaga.
Richbyu
7/11/18 3:40pm
Name 5 programs better than Gonzaga in the last 5 years

Why?

"His only offers were BYU and Kentucky"

USU and Gonzaga.

It was a mistake. That is why they are relieved he is

Link?
Indy Coug
7/11/18 3:40pm
Read between the lines. He hardly played last
Jdoc
7/11/18 3:42pm
If he was from another state you would be more excited?
cougarnerd
7/11/18 3:43pm
Maybe. Just seems odd that we recruit 3 counties in Utah.
Richbyu
7/11/18 3:50pm
Take a look at the roster. You are wrong on this.

Right, we were all salivating when Jimmer signed his LOI. He was tall, athletic

I think there was a fair amount of excitement on CB, but he certainly wasn't a nationally-hyped recruit
Indy Coug
7/11/18 3:48pm
What we do know is that Wade will be nothing like Jimmer. Sorry.
Jdoc
7/11/18 3:48pm
I'm sure in 2007 you would have said that Jimmer would be nothing like Jimmer ended up being
Indy Coug
7/11/18 3:48pm
Wade is almost 22 years old and has done nothing on the collegiate level. Jimmer
Jdoc
7/11/18 3:52pm
I don't think Wade is Jimmer. The point is you're making absolute judgments based on essentially nothing
Indy Coug
7/11/18 3:54pm
Incorrect. We know that Wade hardly saw the court last year and that Gonzaga was

BYU maybe should hire Steve Cleveland as a recruiting consultant. He was able
Richbyu

BYU has 7 4-star players on their roster now. That's using ESPN's ratings
Indy Coug
7/11/18 3:56pm
We also have a lot of scrubs.
Richbyu
7/11/18 4:01pm
So do about 330 to 340 of the 351 teams in the nation
Indy Coug
7/11/18 4:02pm
Wish Dave Rose could win a Conference Championship. It's been rough.
Richbyu
7/11/18 4:04pm
Jimmer is huge compared to Wade. Wade looks like he is 5'10". Plus, Jimmer had
Richbyu
7/11/18 3:51pm
Do you just make crap up? Jimmer had offers from Siena and BYU. That's it.
SierraCoug
7/11/18 3:55pm
He's clearly making just about everything up in this thread
Indy Coug
7/11/18 3:57pm
Wade is 6’2” with shoes on, I spoke to someone who saw Wade and Emery side by

Jimmer was the all time leading scorer in NY state bball history.

Nothing. Just odd that our recruiting area is basically 3 counties in Utah.
Richbyu
7/11/18 3:53pm
Have you looked at our roster? It's not all 3 counties in Utah. Your statement is easily debunked.
Indy Coug
7/11/18 3:55pm
Ok, you are correct. I was thinking of a few years ago. But regardless:
Richbyu
7/11/18 4:00pm
Cannon was "signed" as a walk-on. Irrelevant. Troy is a walk-on. Irrelevant.
Indy Coug
7/11/18 4:01pm
Andrus, Nixon, Shaw? Relevant or Not Relevant?
Richbyu
7/11/18 4:03pm
If you think BYU should have a roster 13 to 15 deep of 4-star or better players
Indy Coug
7/11/18 4:03pm
I'd be thrilled if BYU / Dave Rose could win a conference championship.
Richbyu
7/11/18 4:04pm
Different argument.

It says more about the poster than wade.

He's going to be serious firepower off the bench at worst......

He reminds me of Sam Burgess but with better ballhandling
CaliWG

If he can be Sam Burgess that's a win.
ArchbishopMitty

He was a Rivals top 150 player in a class that included some pretty good players
icecougar

A time will come where we're glad we have him...
icecougar

BYU will need a solid PG when Hardnett leaves after this year
Coogar2
7/11/18 6:42pm
why do you think he's leaving?
icecougar
7/12/18 4:28pm
He’s a definite upgrade over McKay Cannon.
