Talking to a Ute insider expecting Deivon to transfer, but how Rollie is better

Mar 29, 1:38pm

What is it with those guys who seem to want a new school every single year?

With NIL it might be good to test offers it's just free-agency run amok

Utah was bad and they lose Carlsen Bajema and now Worster. Probably wants to

marinact

Bad? So what does that make the team that lost to them?

26-17.

NYC and Japan

Mar 29, 3:07pm

Cling to that while it lasts.

No football wins in about 5 years. 1 basketball win in 7 years. Rough time for U

NYC and Japan

You want to go there, 1 football win in 15 years?

A better team overall. Not really debatable

BYU '80

Mar 29, 3:22pm

The Utes have gone from bad to Worsterless

ochobeeguy

Smith would be a nice addition if he picked BYU...

That’s how they grew up. AAU ball is just changing teams all the time, no

Not all of us are cut out to work at the plant for 40 yrs

Free agency every year would be much worse. No long guaranteed contracts

marinact

Mar 29, 6:03pm

Makes sense for any player to see what they can get

Medute

Mar 29, 2:06pm

Hate it.

DubuMfalme

Like many other teams

Mar 29, 2:49pm

I would do a similar thing no matter my college major, even if not Basketball

Rollie had a good game against us in December

RockyBalboa

Mar 29, 2:22pm

His stats weren't glamorous but he got it done down the stretch.

SinkingQuffa

Mar 29, 3:33pm

huh? he shot 2 for 10 overall and 0-4 from 3. got so bad we left him open and...

icecougar

Geesh, I'd love to laugh... but until Pope can put together a good year in the Portal... I don't want no bad karma.

SinkingQuffa

Mar 29, 3:32pm

Was Khalifa not a good pickup?

ochobeeguy

Mar 29, 3:44pm

He was not the #1, 2, 3, or 4th option Pope made a run at with that schollie. Honestly, his floor looked very low to me.

SinkingQuffa

Mar 29, 4:02pm

And Adams played 8 minutes. Just goes to show you never know.

ochobeeguy

Mar 29, 4:05pm

Injuries are a killer. Baker too. Our ceiling was really hurt when those two didn't pan out.

SinkingQuffa

Mar 29, 4:08pm

The recency bias from the tourney is crazy

arcawley

Mar 29, 4:50pm

I think you misread the post.

SinkingQuffa

Mar 29, 4:52pm

what number option a portal guy is for Pope isn't a measure of anything really..

icecougar

Mar 29, 5:25pm

yes he was a good pickup. Played through a significant injury this year and...

icecougar

Mar 29, 7:33pm

Haarms, Barcello, Lucas, Toolson, Khalifa, and Robinson? Pope has done well

arcawley

Mar 29, 4:49pm

Except for Haarms & Toolson none of those were all that enviable of pickups.

SinkingQuffa

Mar 29, 4:59pm

Huh?? Jaxson Robinson is a likely NBA draft pick and was Big12 6th MOY

icecougar

Mar 29, 5:56pm

He didn't have many suitors in the Portal, though.

SinkingQuffa

Mar 29, 6:27pm

we were fortunate Pope has a good eye and is a good salesman...

icecougar

Mar 29, 7:34pm

I think he's been a very smart recruiter. He just hasn't won many battles for hot transfers (minus Haarms).

SinkingQuffa

Mar 29, 7:44pm

Rollie is smart and crafty but not very athletic and doesn't shoot well enough..
