I thought even at full strength the team was probably NIT bound, MAYBE a fringe tournament team if things broke right.
But then Yoeli, BYU’s best big man and best player gets suspended.
Baxter, BYU’s second best big man and maybe a starter or at least a rotation player has a season ending injury.
Wade, a sharpshooter who is maybe a starter or at least a rotation player has a season ending injury.
Right now the roster lost its top two post players and has one player over 6’7” they can play. They’re also out a shooter. This team right now is undersized and undermanned. Rotations get tighter and legs get tired faster. This team is a fringe NIT team until Childs gets back. They struggled to beat SUU at home for crying out loud.
