absence. throw in solid big-man performances by worthington and nixon and maybe dastrup and we should be fine. doesn't mean mika's bad or made team worse, just that others elevated their game to answer the call.

I like Schroyer and believe he is influencing things for the better....

I agree - could have phrased the initial post better.

Lets see what happens first. Because that may be the direction this train heads.

Yet we may win more games this year w/o them

If we're better than 22-12 this year it doesn't mean we were better off without Mika (or Emery)

certainly helps.

thebruce

11/13/17 1:31pm

I'll put it another way. We are better with more experience and Schroyer.

I’ll put it another way, we’re better when we score in the 90’s & hold opponents

icecougar

I'll put it the final way

It boils down to wins and winning 22 games with them last year wasn’t that great

BYU may be better this year than last year, but would be even better with Mika

If the team had Mika right now, the team would be better. The problem would be . . .
