My dad plays golf with Chandler’s grandpa

If that’s a realistic goal, then he’s definitely not wrong in this move. But it

I'm sure that's the goal. No way it happens.

Collin Chandler averaged 19ppg in high school. He's not a one and done.

Ppg avg isn’t what gets you drafted

Now imagine if he rides the pine in year 1 now (likely) lol.

IDK he comes home in a couple weeks. A lot of time to get back in shape

Soupie

I hope he fulfills his dream but not many guys are one and done.

“Improbable” is being nice

If true, that family is delusional.

They all are, tho.

Madam Pattirini

Yep if that is the goal should not have gone on a mission. Unless he is 7'6''

johnnybyu

Apr 16, 7:38am

impressive he chose to serve, despite the goal

here's to hoping

Apr 16, 11:48am

I mean, if D league is his goal, 1 and done it. Very few ever are able to 1 and done it, especially after a mission

Given Pope’s track record for putting players in the NBA, it’s understandable he

Pepe

Apr 16, 7:46am

He was a 4-star recruit, #33 overall, and hasn’t played ball in 2+ years

Medute

At least the family won't be able to blame BYU for him not making it.

Soy Celeste

He reportedly was the #6 ranked SG in his HS class

MyTwoCents

Apr 16, 11:40am

3 of those guys were 99 or 100 rated players

Medute

one and done. yep...Pope's NCAA tourney record as coach

The family "isn't talking about the NBA" but they're talking about "NBA asap"?

COACHdrn

Apr 16, 8:37am

Yes, that was very confusing

SoBlueitHurts

Shawn Bradley did it

MajorZeus

Chandler isn't 7'6".

dYrtbYkerYder

Sort of, but he never did much in the NBA.

12 year NBA career. $65 million. Doesn't sound bad to me.

I would gladly get posterized and ride a lot of pine for that kind of money

Unless you care about your reputation as a b-ball player and don't want to be

What are you talking about? Stop trolling your rival board

MajorZeus

Apr 16, 2:10pm

???? I don't think you understood my comment. I'm arguing Chandler shouldn't

Threw and Through

Apr 16, 4:18pm

If he wanted that why did he go on a mission?

Scott_Tenorman

Apr 16, 8:50am

Maybe because he understood that was the right thing to do?

I love how unbiased grandpas playing golf can be. Chandler will be lucky to play

MHOP

If you remember, Austin Collie had a gut when he came back. It was his Junior

Parker Schnabel

Apr 16, 9:38am

Chandler does not have a gut & needed to gain some weight. Kid was scrawny.

Soupie

Apr 16, 9:41am

Bummer, but you can’t fault the kid for making the best decision for himself..

Dat_rmishner

Apr 16, 9:14am

Except that because of his age and lack of experience, he has no way of knowing

If Collin wants the NBA, he should reconsider BYU

You need another T-time with grandpa and see if CC can get an extra P-day this week.

Soupie

Apr 16, 11:25am

I wanted Chandler here more than I wanted my left testicle, but even if he never

Alan Schaefer

Apr 16, 11:34am

This is where we differ. I value my left(and right) testicle more than a player coming to BYU

TADOW

Apr 16, 12:21pm

How?

Alan Schaefer

Apr 16, 12:45pm

You wanted Chandler more than your left testicle. I would rather have my left testicle than Chandler.

TADOW

Apr 16, 12:58pm

Right. I’m trying to understand your line of thinking.

Alan Schaefer

Apr 16, 1:23pm

The testicle will still be here in 4 years, or in this case, still be there now.

here's to hoping

Apr 16, 2:53pm

It will all work out

I'm thinking the odds of him transferring to BYU are better.

I doubt it because of the relationships, but maybe

SoBlueitHurts

Chandler could've been Jimmer-esque fame at BYU, now just another guy at Kentuck

aaronmania

Apr 16, 2:43pm

Irony is that Keven Young, superstar NBA talent developer, would be more likely

Jasbo

Apr 16, 3:12pm

Add to that the close access to an NBA team owner in Ryan Smith. Who also is

MHOP

Or at least way too impatient.

He could still change his mind, I just do not see it based on not having a
