Understand, but he still wasn't good enough to retain his scholarship

It was nice that the coaching staff was up front with him and gave him an opportunity, but he still got cut. Kind of like free agent signings in the NFL, you know it is a slim chance of making the team, but in the end you are still cut from the team.

Do we know anything about where Beo is headed? Has he landed somewhere?

Not sure but I wonder about the wisdom

I like Beo. I've moved away now, but I lived in Tri-Cities at the time he was

cujo22

I'll take jahshire over Beo any day.

thebruce

7/7/17 9:42am

I'll wait until at least the end of this next season to make that determination

Beo didn't really contribute last year so the bar is pretty low.

thebruce

Beo was a true freshman

I'mBatman

7/7/17 10:14am

The 2nd jc kid was a late add when it was confirmed Mika and Tonoyan were not

thebruce

Beo wasn't cut.

slatecoug

7/7/17 10:34am

Isn't that the definition of being cut?

zuxvon

7/7/17 11:05am

He committed to byu as a walk-on

He still wasn't cut from the team, tho

thebruce

7/7/17 11:20am

Since all scholarships are year to year, would it be wrong to ever say a BYU

84 Grad

7/7/17 11:23am

His situation was different

thebruce

7/7/17 11:54am

The bottom line is he was forced to leave.

zuxvon

7/7/17 11:36am

Beo left on his own accord.

slatecoug

Rose should never be nice to walkons and give them schollies

archie

7/7/17 2:20pm

Odd that he would do that with a true freshman

zuxvon

7/7/17 2:47pm

He gave out multiple scholarships to walk-ons last year

thebruce

7/7/17 2:58pm

Interesting, what caused him to not use his scholarships?

zuxvon

7/7/17 3:17pm

Yeah there was just a lot of turnover and he ended up having 3 scholarships

thebruce

The JC guys are coming from Heath Shroyer's connections.

slatecoug

They didn't ask him to leave.

slatecoug

It depends on perspective, but telling someone they no longer have a scholarship

zuxvon

7/7/17 12:59pm

Far cry different than getting cut. Getting a scholly pulled just means you...

icecougar

7/7/17 3:47pm

he came to byu as a walk on so he was prepared to pay for himself. don't see

ColonelMustard7

Actually Dave had lots of confidence in Beo, even told him he could see him being a big part of the program when he was

slatecoug

I just don't know how you can say that until the other kids play 1 second of D1.

Lance71

My guess on Beo-

PJMort

Beo was told when he got the Scholarship it was just for that year and it would be reevaluated after the season.

slatecoug

Beo came in as a great shooter, scorer out of high school. He was not that at BY

I think the coaches did a good job of screwing the kid up

yfever

Coaches didn't screw him up.

You're right. People don't understand how much more difficult it is to get the

IMO, had Beo stuck it out and worked hard, he could have been a solid contributor in the 18-19 season.

Leifson, Beo, Shaw - all reaches. Can pluck those kids from JCs every year

ag4cougs

7/7/17 12:27pm

Leifson doesn't have the athleticism to play D-1

MAcc15Coug

7/7/17 3:36pm

I disagree. Leifson definitely has more upside than Beo.

slatecoug

7/8/17 1:48am

Again, I respectfully disagree.

MAcc15Coug

7/8/17 8:15am

You can disagree all you want, but your assessment of Leifson is wrong.

slatecoug

7/9/17 2:30am

they were both hail mary schollie offers, guys. walk-on talents at best.

ag4cougs

7/9/17 9:01am

Beo wouldn't cut it on a city league team

Sounds like Eastern Washington
