recruiting classes ever coming in, on paper.

And RB is doesn't often misfire with the development of raw talent.

SMC 5th?

Indy Coug Loquacious Lummox

9/21/20 7:11am

USF and UP return a lot of talent, right?

rggee

9/21/20 7:16am

Whereas SMC will have.....Fotu? Anyone else that contributed a lot last year?

rggee

9/21/20 7:20am

Tommy Kuhse is back for them as well. Matthias Tass was looking really good

jreid191

9/21/20 7:44am

Problem is they have no scorers

puntersarepeople

9/21/20 7:56am

I could see them ending up with 4 or 5 players each averaging 10-15 PPG.

jreid191

9/21/20 8:47am

They’ll evolve some

you also have to consider that maybe those guys benefited from all the ...

9/21/20 11:11am

They will probably rely on slowing the pace down even more than normal

puntersarepeople

9/21/20 11:28am

I was just going to say this. Randy Bennett is a master of having his teams play at a pace that benefits them. I hate

9/21/20 11:58am

Fotu doesn’t scare me. A healthy Gav Baxter shuts Fotu down.

Zastava

9/21/20 11:52am

They have a 4* freshman guard coming in

puntersarepeople

icecougar

9/21/20 4:12pm

But was more highly rated

puntersarepeople

9/21/20 4:52pm

I could certainly be wrong, but I don’t see Jabe as an immediate impact guy.

Zastava

9/21/20 5:26pm

TJ Haws is possibly the most unathletic

puntersarepeople

9/21/20 5:34pm

TJ always had a craftiness with the ball that Jabe doesn’t...

Zastava

9/21/20 5:55pm

I’m not expecting him to be as good as Haws, First team WCC is a high bar

puntersarepeople

9/21/20 8:37pm

TJ had a certain type of athleticism. Not the most unathletic by any stretch.

Gentleman Stan

9/21/20 6:59pm

Unathletic is the wrong word

puntersarepeople

9/21/20 8:35pm

Minlend grad transferred to Louisville.

Dakota Cougar

9/21/20 7:26am

That's right, forgot about that. SMC loses so much though.

rggee

9/21/20 7:28am

Pepperdine returns virtually their whole team from last year. If anyone were to

jreid191

9/21/20 7:50am

Pepperdine has a good transfer or two

puntersarepeople

9/21/20 7:57am

Defense is a big question for them. 3rd best team in conference offensively but

jreid191

9/21/20 9:02am

Only 1 senior on the team and no Jordan Ford

astroman

9/21/20 7:20am

No more Ford, Perry?, Fitts, Krebs

rggee

9/21/20 7:23am

I think Fitts declared for the nba? Otherwise he is back

BYU '80

9/21/20 7:32am

Fitts signed with an agent I think he is stuck in the draft at this point.

Dakota Cougar

9/21/20 7:33am

Fitts declared for the draft. I suppose he could still come back

rggee

9/21/20 7:34am

Perry tranferred to UC Riverside

Charles Darwin

9/21/20 7:45am

Krebs Graduated

Charles Darwin

9/21/20 7:45am

Did Australia run out of basketball players?

DirtyWater

9/21/20 7:20am

They have Alex Ducas who I think will be a good player

Charles Darwin

9/21/20 7:49am

No, but wasn't part of their probation that coaches couldn't travel internationally to recruit?

SpiffCoug

9/21/20 8:41am

I'd go Pepperdine #3, SM #4, SF #5, Loyola #6

mokelembembe

9/21/20 7:45am

I have SMC #3, Pepp #4, SF #5, SCU #6, Pacific #7, USD #8, LMU #9

jreid191

9/21/20 9:16am

Yes on Portland at 10, obviously. IMO anyone of USF, Pacific, USD or Santa Clara

Gentleman Stan

9/21/20 11:07am

I think it’s spot on

Callmepope

9/21/20 8:06am

So is there any unofficial word that basketball season is on?

November 25th is the first day. Schedule is still TBD

Hmm, seems like voters are banking this is the first year ever that Bennett

Mitty

9/21/20 9:33am

Bennett had too good of a recruiting class for things to shake out that way.

SinkingQuffa

9/21/20 9:35am

When you lose your top 3 players who were practically everything for the team

Callmepope

9/21/20 10:28am

I don't disagree w the preseason listing. They've been kind to us, prob.

SinkingQuffa

9/21/20 11:44am

2nd best XO guy IMO. 20 years ago, Few built GU on local 2-star kids. He did it

Gentleman Stan

9/21/20 10:58am

That's certainly a valid pt.

SinkingQuffa

9/21/20 11:45am

It's also interesting how much they respect BYU's transfers. Normally I

Mitty

9/21/20 9:36am

I think they understand how solid guys like Alex Barcello, Connor Harding...

That's how much Ford and Fitts meant to that team. They had nobody else but ...

icecougar

My guess: BYU wins it all in 2021.
