So the OP about him being his best as a Sr is far from the truth, he was best as a Soph/Jun and definitely played worse as a Sr.

Has there been another player who rewrote their own narrative so thoroughly?

Many on CB were stupid.

Thankfully I wasn’t on CB at the time😉

Some of us saw it all along. But Tyler was great.

I was with this category of always having his back

He was really good for 3 out of 4 years

JoeExotic

And if we are being honest he would have been good 4 out of 4 years

I think you're the one rewriting history--most loved TJ long before his senior

I will try to find receipts. I could be wrong but I don’t remember this being

Mr. Rumsfield

He was very impressive as a Jr as well. Even better than his Sr yr, stat wise

Noah Hartsock is one that comes to mind.

Another thing I don't recall. Loved Hartsock.

People didn't like Hartsock?

He was the whipping boy earlier in his BYU career. The guy CB loved to hate

Are you sure about this?

Zoobieman

1/20/22 3:05pm

Positive. He vastly improved as a player

bluelands

1/20/22 3:34pm

As a Sophomore he was the highest FG% shooter on the team

Zoobieman

I don't recall this. . . I remember James Anderson though during the same time.

CB is well known for exaggerating/fabricating shortcomings of players

Some CBers have such bad bball takes that a few days ago some was trying to

Plato

If some on CB were to have their way...we would finish the season with 4 players

I loved TJ, but I would take Tyler all day long over him.

kimdaddy35

1/20/22 2:45pm

That is what I’m saying. Even with Tyler being the all-time leading

Mr. Rumsfield

1/20/22 2:48pm

Tyler didn't "take over" as you said because he always had to "take over" for that

kimdaddy35

1/20/22 3:01pm

Fair points. Good old recency bias for the win haha.

Mr. Rumsfield

1/20/22 3:17pm

Yeah, Tyler was the better of the 2 but I’d take either one any year

Bluforever

1/20/22 5:29pm

Of course, I wasn't trying to disparage TJ. Great BYU player.

kimdaddy35

1/20/22 5:30pm

You’re good. I was agreeing with you; but written poorly.

I have a close connection and see him every so often. I love JT.

Mr. Rumsfield

1/20/22 3:16pm

JT is a great, but I do remember comments "Pass to Jimmer".

Zoobieman

1/20/22 3:29pm

Brock Zylstra and Logan Magnusson had the worst fg% in 09/10

YSMACK

1/20/22 3:42pm

Weak argument - Zylstra/Magnusson avg 1.3 shots per game combined.

Senior TJ was excellent. He solved his propensity for TOs that plagued him in

Forzaitalia

His numbers were better his junior year. It was his sophomore year that was rough
