and LDS. I think it's fair to question Rose as a talent evaluator. There are some guys on the roster I wouldn't have offered and a decent amount of Utah kids I would have offered that Rose didn't.

Sounds like someone is sucking on sour grapes over in state kids they missed on.

It is only NOT OK if there are better recruits that would come to BYU.

Who cares where players come from?

You don't think they tried...really hard...to get Jabari Parker?

If they didn't, I wouldn't blame them. I can't see how one-and-done

They recruited Jabari for YEARS. That was documented

If Rose doesn't fix the offense he won't get to choose who to bring back

It's not okay since we haven't made the tourney in 3 years.

I've been preaching this for years. There is no reason we should not be dabbling

Did Rose take heat here for cutting Ziggy? I know he was raw, but how could

I've played basketball with Ziggy a few times.

You act as if Rose doesn't care. If he could likely get international players to

I think there are a few people who think Dave has become lazy with recruiting.

Unless your neighbor has a better backyard...

That's a football strategy. Not necessary for the limited basketball roster

Funny because BYU was one of the first (maybe THE first) to go international

They very well might recruit worldwide, but do they offer worldwide?

It's an insane argument. People create weirdest non issues in unpleasant times.

Why do you keep saying this when it’s untrue?

Because they believe it is true

Conveniently overlooks the current recruiting effort on the 6'8" Russian.

To be fair, there have been some pretty talented kids in Utah County as of late

Absolutely. Davies and Collinsworth have both spent time in the NBA.
