IMO, it's the primary role of the freshman not to encroach.
In any case, i doubt any possible uneasiness has to do with his talent or his scoring. It's Emery accepting that he is not in charge. If there is a problem which i doubt anymore, it's primarily his to fix, and the seniors to excuse.
Great young player. i don't see the comparisons to Carlino to be valid at all.
He has given us almost precisely what i had expected before the season, despite the wide range of expectations which were too low by those who thought he would not be a starter, and too high by those who thought he was ready to lead this team. The latter may be one source of the problem if ever he had any such delusions.
Everyone who loves BYU will love Nick's game over time. i already do and think he has settled in nicely in recent weeks.
