So our guards are Barcello, Harding, Knell, Wade, George, Johnson, and Erickson.
Our most well known entities are Barcello, Harding, and sort of Knell. Barcello is all but a lock to play PG next year. Harding will be a wing, and perhaps a backup PG. Knell will be a 3 and D player, who Pope kept mentioning in interviews as a guy who needed to play, but BYU just had such a deep wing rotation this past year that the freshman couldn't quite break into the rotation.

Jesse Wade is finally healthy, but between mission and injuries, hard to know how much he can contribute. He will probably need to play as a backup PG, since he's undersized for an off-ball shooting guard, even in college.

Gideon George is a 6'6" raw athlete with a lot of potential. Played at New Mexico JuCo scoring 14.5 ppg on 51% FG, 36% 3PT, and 70% FT along with 8 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game this past season. If he can bump up his 3 point shooting a bit more, then he'll be an excellent 3 and D player.

Spencer Johnson I think is a sleeper to be in the 8 man rotation next year. 6'5" shooting guard for SLCC, one of the best JUCO programs in the country. As a redshirt freshman he scored 13.4 ppg shooting 51% from the floor and 38% from 3 as the team went 29-4 and finished with a #18 national ranking. Was a first team all-state selection at American Fork before his mission.

Hunter Erickson is a 6'3" guard, who recently returned from his mission. Has hops (or at least, he did before his mission, now remains to be seen), scored 22 ppg in high school, and earned all-state honors at Timpview. Since he's an RM freshman, I don't see him contributing much this season.
