And that's one of the hardest things about Gonzaga. 1-5 need to be able to
Play defense because all of them can move well without the ball, and beat their man off the dribble.
I've never thought of it as a utah culture thing (I didn't grow up in utah) but it does make sense from how people played at byu in intermerals.

Are you equating height to athleticism. Seems you're using them interchangeably.

Any recruit can grow on their mission. That's nothing new.

We're not even 24 months into Pope's tenure. I think that's a rushed judgement.
