I was thinking of Lee too (but didn't want to be laughed to scorn).

SinkingQuffa Walk-on

Lee was even longer & more athletic, but this kid will be quite a bit stronger than Lee, probably.

I'm not so sure he might not get the last laugh, though.

SinkingQuffa

I don't think he's a sleeper. He'll be one of the top seven. He could even be a

I like him a lot. He has a lot of skills. I think he's athletic enough to be a

I agree. I think his scoring potential is higher than Harding's, though.

No reason to criticize one great player to make a case for another. Just doesn't sit well with me. Harding is the

You misread me, I think. I'm definitely not in that camp. Harding's

SinkingQuffa

Not to mention that Connor was our most versatile perimeter defender

CaliWG

I'm thinking Harding and Johnson can

Frankincense

6/4/20 3:45pm

They'll most certainly play quite a bit together. We'll need the points.

SinkingQuffa

6/4/20 3:58pm

I'm high on Harding for all the reasons you mentioned.

Forzaitalia

Harding wii be great.

Frankincense

6/4/20 7:45pm

Yes. Hope his knee heals in off season and he can be ready to go. Really need him.

Soupie

I don’t think anyone knows Harding’s scoring potential. He’s played alongside

There's no doubt truth to this. And the same of Johnson at the D1 level.

What is the argument for Baxter to play 3 instead of 4/5 supplement?

Cougforgood

6/4/20 3:36pm

I think his defensive versatility may favor him there over Lowell. Lowell's

SinkingQuffa

6/4/20 3:53pm

I could potentially see some scenarios where Lowell plays the 3 on offense but

jreid191

6/4/20 4:01pm

Yeah, I don't like Lowell defensively as a 3. He's a pretty good athlete for his

seems like exactly the type of player we need to complement our big trees.

Liking what I see there. Length and shooting skills.

lightmann

gives Pope another versatile weapon to play at the 2-3 spot...

icecougar

6/4/20 4:33pm

another potential bonus with Johnson...

icecougar

6/4/20 4:45pm

Honestly, at first I thought that might've been part of why Pope signed him

SinkingQuffa

Wow How many pc’s are you using?

Haha, that's a good one!

Frankincense

Bingo! Spencer needs a great year on the court and a fantastic BYU experience

sandiegocgrfan

6/4/20 6:26pm

He supposedly built a great relationship w da Duck coaches. Wouldn't count on it

SinkingQuffa

6/4/20 6:32pm

Yes, that coupled with the family having lived in Oregon and not having BYU

sandiegocgrfan

6/4/20 6:37pm

No, it certainly can't. It wouldn't shock me if he switched to us

SinkingQuffa

6/4/20 6:41pm

maybe Oregon will go through a coaching change while he's out on his mission

I think he could be a really solid player.

Spencer will get significant

Upgrade over Toolson? Come on man!

BYUALWAYSNUM1

6/4/20 11:19pm

Probably not this season, but I think his game suggests that eventually.

SinkingQuffa

6/4/20 11:27pm

seriously, you guys need to stop. Let the kid play. You're not doing him favors

Sounded like reasoned explanation to me. I'll therefore hold on the meme.

SinkingQuffa

6/5/20 2:16pm

We’ll see. Toolson was an elite shooter, and he was very good at using his...

I enjoy your covid posts. Little skill things are not what made Toolson great.

How about we let him play first before

Frankincense

6/5/20 5:57am

Jake just shot 47% from 3 for a season while taking a bunch of deep ones

CaliWG

Tbh he reminds me of a young MJ but a better shooter

Love ya rosey, but where was the caution yesterday w UVU's inefficient PG?

SinkingQuffa

6/5/20 5:28pm

oooh...I get what you're thinking there but Toolson's ability to hit big shots..

icecougar

Better movement than I expected. He looks slender.

I saw him play several times and I like his game a lot. Biggest thing is
