I think people are overestimating Gideon.

The dude has been inconsistent and even his best games were nothing special yet. He is a work in progress so he has been improving and may improve more, but I don't understand any reliance on him at this point. I can understand people talking about his potential though.

I gotta assume Pope's closing deal w Seneca was a simple

A lot of people will have to compete for a starting spot, I would assume

7/19/21 6:50am

I agree on those 3. I think Seneca's ball-handling gives him a leg up

It will be interesting. I worry about shooting, I bet Lohner shoots better from

If Knell's handles improve (he said he's working on them)

The tricky thing with Knell

It's why I tend to favor Johnson (or Erickson) as the dark horse starter

Erickson provides a lot of athletic ability

And sick hair

True, but one guy who stands in the corner and shoots is fine.

Knell is a 3 point specialist, which most teams need. Hope he can somehow play D

I thought he did a great job last season. Night-n-day better than the yr before.

They have something BYU has rarely had & not sure they’ve ever had in these numbers — length.

Yep. And mobility. It's a very different sort of roster for us.

Like what?

Too much ABBA ball.

Yeah, as much as I love his attitude, character and raw potential

That's why bringing in Seneca is big

7/19/21 9:47am

If we weren't so committed to ABBA last season, he woulda played less.

I have to think with Knight, GGs odds of starting are small.

Seneca should take pressure off Lohner to be a principal scorer.

Good pt.

Pope’s hire gets better and better every day. Improving every day it seems.
