Is this for spots or just measurements? One would be a lot easier than the other

TCuz

Transfer them! Always book directly with the airline.

justAnotherCoug

7:13pm

You should have option to pay with points. It’s always been easy and straight forward for me.

JamieTartt

7:13pm

Depends where you want to fly but most likely the best use of your points is to transfer them to a hotel. If you have

HarlemCoug

7:23pm

I agree. I tend to use Amex and Chase points for hotels and not for flights.

Archaea

7:27pm

Canada Aeroplan and KLM/AF are still really good ones. We've gone to europe x2 on points.

TN_Coug

7:38pm

But why? Airline redemption are worth more $/ point.

Dont book through Amex. Use resources such as point.me, seats.aero, awardlogic.com, roame.travel or seatspy.

Crawford is higher rated as a recruit, but Bryant was a proven player.

If Crawford becomes anywhere near the player Bryant was I'll be happy.

kimdaddy35

Bryant was okay at Elon, but he flourished under Rose more than was expected.

Joined Boston a year after their last title with Bird.

DieHarder

I’d pick Bryant over Jax or Lanier

puntersarepeople

6:57pm

Bryant--even as a Sr--was no Lanier as a total impact player, & he wasn't a true PG anything like Crawford.

SinkingQuffa

7:24pm

What was his impact his senior year?

kimdaddy35

7:37pm

It's been a while. I did realize my mistake there after I sent it off.

SinkingQuffa

7:41pm

18 ppg at BYU is much more impressive than 19 ppg at North Florida.

kimdaddy35

That was a pretty prolific offense he played for — that spent much of the year blowing out way outmatched WCC opponents

SinkingQuffa

7:46pm

Lol. You have such a weird opinion on things. Why are you trying to boost up a

kimdaddy35

7:53pm

So you honestly think Elijah Bryant's measurables are anywhere near Lanier's?

SinkingQuffa

7:57pm

Imagine what Bryant would do against North Floridas opponents. He was better as

marinact

7:55pm

He wouldn't have been able to do what Lanier did. He was not that level of athlete. Lanier's team sucked.

SinkingQuffa

7:58pm

Bryant was 6'5"

kimdaddy35

6:59pm

So was Spencer Johnson when we saved him from SLCC's roster.

SinkingQuffa

He’s basically Jalen Brunson

CougarCanuck76

6:48pm

I like him a lot, but let's keep in mind he's 6'1" (maybe) which is on the smaller side, particularly at the 2 spot.

CalGTR

6:49pm

Point well taken. He’s listed as 6’2 a lot of places (including BYU presser). He and Hall can pair in backcourt

mjmill

6:52pm

Is he a 1 or 2?

JuicyJam

And he is a freshman, so hopefully we add another few with more experience

TempeCoug

So are Tim's days of recruiting for team yewt — outa spite — forever in the rearview?

SinkingQuffa

He does Jazz games these days and always speaks highly of BYU

Carnac

6:24pm

And he's got my blessings on that. I did appreciate his encouraging tweets for the team last season.

SinkingQuffa

and maybe he just calls it as he sees it

Belboz

6:36pm

The coach who didn’t retain him is gone so I’d assume he’s over it.

rivercitycoug

Tim was public enemy #1 to BYU for more than a couple seasons.

Tim has crazy stories about Majerus and the U and I’ve heard some of them. He’s

Ray Shoesmith

Connections he probably made sure leaned AWAY from BYU — as much as he could influence them.

Stop. You sound ridiculous

Ray Shoesmith

Hope so! Tim is a great guy! Go Cougs!

baishel44

6:35pm

I hope so, too. We all have our dark sides & struggles, & Pope was surely no angel either.

SinkingQuffa

6:42pm

So I take it that he didn’t like Pope

palangi

6:54pm

There was definitely some nastiness going on between Pope & the previous staff (Rose included).

SinkingQuffa

6:58pm

Because he’s a blowhard?

BYU '80

7:32pm

Pope proved himself as a coach at levels Tim could never come close to touching. It's too bad as good a coach as Tim

SinkingQuffa

7:38pm

Where did LaComb say otherwise. Why are there so many coaches and players

BYU '80

7:42pm

He didn’t. Stinking Opinion is up in the night

Ray Shoesmith

8:09pm

Pope didn't prove himself. He had no actual success, and his incompetency in

wildeone

8:03pm

Nice indirect on pope.

Idacoug

7:21pm

I'm gonna give Tim the benefit of the doubt & presume his pettiness has run its course after 5 long years.

SinkingQuffa

7:34pm

So it’s all on Tim and none on Pope. At least you’re consistent

BYU '80

We probably won't get Lanier now, right? Isn't he also a guard?

TRUE_BLUE_COUGY

6:09pm

Yes. We really could use his athleticism in the backcourt. He's a more complete offensive player than anyone we got.

SinkingQuffa

6:10pm

Lanier's a 6'4" shooting guard and only available for one year, so no real position overlap with Crawford

Underhill

6:12pm

there is position overlap in that they are both guards, but Lanier is not going

cwilke1

6:14pm

Crawford & Lanier are both smart enough to know BYU roster needs them both if they hope to play for a winner this season

SinkingQuffa

6:16pm

there is strong incentive for these players to care more about their own court

cwilke1

6:18pm

And in that regard they both can clearly see they are talented enough to be impact players for BYU this season.

SinkingQuffa

6:20pm

the way the incentives are built up, would they rather get 10 minutes a game on

cwilke1

6:24pm

That's gonna vary from kid to kid, 'course. And Elijah as an incoming Frosh certainly isn't gonna have the expectations
