The salary for the first pick is a couple million above the MLE. It isn’t cheap,

johnnybyu

1:52pm

But expecting a 4 star QB to sign with BYU every year is unrealistic

Belboz

1:56pm

Exactly. When 4-star QBs are scarce - let's be honest - they're more likely to choose a big time program.

KingDave

Every year sure but we should get more than 3 in 24 years

Tools on was better at it than SJ. I thought that when SJ did it, it really took

Granted, that role's a LOT easier to pull off in WCC play than in the Big 12.

SinkingQuffa

Toolson was money playing booty ball

icecougar

1:43pm

It was a key facet of the 2019-20 team. Other than Yoeli, who was a bigger threat in the paint?

SinkingQuffa

Jake Toolson was money from 3. And his 3 point area started just as he went past

I have no statistical evidence to back this up but SJ posting up felt very ineffective to me.

RdF3

He threw a LOT of assists outa that set.

SinkingQuffa

1:43pm

Okay that’s fair. I was thinking in terms of him actually scoring.

RdF3

He started strong — & then his turnaround went cold for some time. His touch on the glass was decent
