Tristan Newton schollie worthy?
What say you? There's some decently interesting guards/wings still out there for the taking. I've posted this kid's tape before on here, but it seems more relevant now if we are expecting there to be multiple open schollies for this year. I actually think Rose has been too impatient with scholarships when people leave in the past. You don't need an immediate replacement if there's not good players out there....you can sit on the open schollie awhile and see how player movement shakes out way beyond April. Might even be worth not using one year so you're not constantly in a scramble for more each year and have to move guys on before you like. But yeah, I just like this kid. And of course there's guys like Jeremey Dowdell still out there. They could also take Leifson back. Or sit on it. But even ignoring his long bombs, I think this kid could what maybe Kajon Brown never had a prayer of being but maybe what BYU was hoping. Just an athletic guy on the wing that can play some D...slash....you would probably have to coach him up into being a bit less ball dominant....maybe even tweak the jumper.......but I'm intrigued:
