Always have a target on our back and that can make some players play afraid to lose. This way we can play more loose out there.

Hans and Scotty said that the basketball team will have a bigger challenge

.500 in the big 12 is a good seed in the tourney

Agree, unless the talent is greatly upgraded, expect .500 seasons.

DiamondDog

It will likely take a talent upgrade just to get to .500 consistently.

I think they are still pissed BYU is better than their Utes in both sports.

It may eventually affect attendance, but at least for the first couple of years,

It will be like playing Gonzaga and SMC in the MC 8 times per season.

I don’t disagree. The Big 12 is an incredible basketball conference.

Why are you listening to Hans and Scotty?

I hope we start .500 in conference. That would be amazing

They could be a 0.500 team in conference. That's not a pessimistic prediction.

I didn't listen to that segment of Hans and Scotty, but I do agree with that

.500 in the conference will get us in the tournament and 7-9 seed. Need to

I'd be thrilled to have a .500 record in B12 conference play

StantonMac

1/28/22 2:36pm

I think that's the realistic expectation. This year's team would be under 500,

It's not going to affect attendance, but yes, our team isn't close to

Playing good teams brings the fans especially at the MC.

I mostly agree with what they said.

Hans Olsen is always my go-to for basketball takes! He knows it! 😂🤦🏼‍♂️😂

I agree. Football is an easier demo to recruit for than hoop for BYU

I think .500 would be outstanding.

People have forgotten how it is in a competitive conference

It's the top of the heap in basketball. It's not the SEC in football. Makes

.500 in the Big 12 will be a typical year for us. The first few seasons we will

Hans dropped too many picnic tables on his head

Big Daddy D

.500 on a good year.

This is where the transfer portal will be huge for us. Players will tune in and

Agreed. Bball will be brutal.

.500 in the big 12 will be great, some historical numbers...

As much as it pains me to agree with them...

I agree with them. I listened to that segment as well and thought they nailed

Yeah. As Pope says, "It's gonna be beautiful." (In an ugly way at times.)

SinkingQuffa

I agree with their take. Both will lose a lot of games out of the gate but bball

I don't see it affecting attendance. San Diego, Portland, etc. affects attendanc

ochobeeguy

Absolutely. Shows how dumb and ignorant they are about good P5 bball conferences

Yeah, overthinking there - that betrayed a negative mindset behind their attempt
