If a couple guys leave this would be a great addition. We need some guys who will be around after next year and we need more depth at PG. If two more guys transfer I’d be happy with Whiting taking a scholarship.

Maybe with his mom and sister being at BYU he would walk on.

His mom is a fulltime BYU employee. He'd already get free (or half off) tuition.

He's an RM, so I think getting close to mother and sister aren't huge priorities

Come to BYU, pay your way, but find a wife. Worth the cost of tuition.

Will he get free or reduced tuition because mom is an employee?

Hmm my guess is that he doesn't have BYU in mind, but rather going down a level

Probably a coach decision. He didn't play in every game and got spot minutes.

Kdubb

he did play 11 minutes in MWC conference tournament loss to New Mexico

Looks like he got in for three minutes but it was basically a 6 man rotation

He’s a solid defender, great team guy, can shoot. Would be a good addition.

I hope we can add a couple of guys who can actually move the needle. He doesn't necessarily seem to be one.

His mom also played for the Cougars. Makes him a double legacy kid...
