Matt was the BBall version of Rod "50-50" Wilkerson...

...had some natural ability and athleticism but you never knew from one play to the next if he would deliver.

I hope he does well. He was fun to watch and also made you want to strangle someone. I don't see how that would be any different this coming season.

Carlino says he "liked everything in Provo except basketball" --- ouch, pretty

I apprecite the honest response. BYU fans were way overly hard on him.

He took stupid shots all the time. I think it has more to do with Rose

7/21/14 10:10am

He also won more games for BYU than any player outside of Haws.

COUGZ

7/21/14 10:12am

I think your statement is much more debatable than mine.

7/21/14 10:14am

He was also responsible for losses

TNT

7/21/14 10:15am

Yes, he was. No argument there.

COUGZ

7/21/14 10:18am

He also lost more games for BYU as well.

How did he win more games than Haws? Pick your criteria here and still you fail

Your reading comprehension sucks.

COUGZ

7/21/14 10:37am

I left out the "for" but I understood your position. Take away Haws points from

He also lost more games for BYU, other than Roger Reid.

Any fan base will be hard on a guy with the same type of decision making skills.

I like Carlino...thought he was good for BYU. He was given the green light

this sums it up very well

Not better than Haws or KC. Mika could even be better. 3rd or 4th at best.

rggee

7/21/14 11:10am

He was nowhere near the second best player on the team ever

roseyscenario

not harsh

permiso

7/21/14 10:06am

I'm OK with that. In fact, better than most alternatives.

They actually cut the quote short, he really said

I won't miss him stealing the ball and then turning it over.

I liked everything about Carlino except the way he played basketball

And there was a lot about Westwood he didn't like aside from bball.

gwalker

7/21/14 10:45am

not a big deal

BlueK

7/21/14 10:22am

Still confused on what opportunities he wasn't getting at Byu.

Alm

7/21/14 10:23am

It could be his assessment about the direction of the team

gwalker

7/21/14 11:00am

Maybe coach informed him that KC's injury wasn't going to amount

Mantis Mutu

7/21/14 11:03am

Team Captian as a Junior, main competition with a serious knee injury,

Alm

7/21/14 11:44am

Haha, what a coincidence

Walter Bellhaven

7/21/14 10:24am

Rose put him a position to succeed. He was failing in the starting role

Never was a player more self-deceptive than he was at BYU

DazeofBlue

7/21/14 10:30am

Actually, Matt DIDN'T say that. That was the reporter summarizing. This

Mantis Mutu

7/21/14 10:55am

What he said is not a big deal at all

Glad to see Rose get rid of multiple forms of cancer.....

Y4LYFE

7/21/14 11:07am

He was a chucker and prone to turn the ball over. If he plays like that at Marq.

CougDogg-e-Dogg

Liked everything, but losing his starting spot.

8man

7/21/14 11:48am

I think he was just too inconsistent for Rose to be able to feel like he could

Matt was a wildcard. Sometimes he was an asset and sometimes a liability

Matt wasn't coming back

7/21/14 8:31pm

this is true, in effect. Rose simply gave him an offer he couldn't accept.
