I think you make a case as to why he has a legit shot, anyway. AND as to why he prob wants to stay put.

SinkingQuffa

I've been a big defender of Hall's play. He directs the offense very well & has better size & strength than many PGs

Why do so many people think Hall can't defend?

ochobeeguy

Because he is a physical defender and doesn’t get steals with quickness. Steals

WJCougar

He said he is behind the offensive scheme

The Dark Knight

He asked that players & fans watch to see what offense he'll be running at BYU. That should be of at least mild interest

All I ask is he has a different offensive set than Pope...

That is pushing towards employee status which becomes very messy.
