For turnover prone transfers, structure offense to counter that problem.

You must be really high on Fous

BYU is 245th in 3pt%, 183rd in 2pt%, 231st in eff FG%, 247th in FT%, 319th in A/FG ratio

P.S. Don't pay attention to the Kenpom offensive efficiency ranking — that's heavily biased by preseason ratings

Don't see how anyone can deny that the dominant problem so far is turnover rate.

Even if they clean up the turnovers, all of their other offensive measures still suck

It would have been good enough to beat USD and enable defense to carry them.

creativity generates some of the good results. It is unlikely that by stifling

and on the other hand I could see a realist say that we don't have the offensive

Watch the last game from 2020 and tell me that half court offense was good.

On the season, that offense was #7 in the Nation, best this century at BYU.

They had yoli and other great players, and

They launched 800 3s, & hit 42.3% with VERY low T/O rate; something worked well.

That's one game which was played without Nixon and with Barcello's broken arm.

And ignores the GU game just before it where BYU seemed to do fine offensively

Yeah, I was busy editing that post to say the same during your comment. 🙂

Not to mention that Randy Bennett has made many elite offenses look inept.

Too many new guys that haven't played together to worry about too much yet. It will get better with time.

That's a whole lot of concrete observations based off of two games

It's not just transfers. But yeah, it's a problem because it becomes infectious.
