Nice... so you're saying there's a chance....

HarlemCoug

Not in draft?

Soupie

Apr 27, 9:56am

No reason not to do both right now

JuicyJam

Apr 27, 10:12am

Woah. Givonny says he’ll consider returning to BYU, while also testing the draft.

TCuz

Apr 27, 9:57am

Seems he's just keeping all options open.

Hypnotoad

Apr 27, 9:59am

Of course, but that option seemed closed previously.

Which is gonna happen with all good players every year now. Gotta get used to it

Alan Schaefer

Basically keeping all his options open and likely to pick whichever one gives

"The reason I am entering the transfer portal is because of the new coach"

What is going on? What does it mean?!?

Gotta believe Pope has the inside track on him. But KY does seem tailor-made to at least give us a real chance.

SinkingQuffa

Apr 27, 10:00am

after Hall and Saunders returning, anything is possible!

MrSandman

Apr 27, 10:10am

It says in the article that he wants to get to know Coach Young, but also wants to keep his options open.

Adrielle

Apr 27, 10:00am

KY being able to retain Jax would be a huge recruiting W. Bigger than convincing

cougarfan84

Apr 27, 10:03am

People saying he’ll follow Pope don’t know the dynamic there. He’s not

kotacoug

Apr 27, 10:04am

He said his goodbye.

BYULAWGUY

Apr 27, 10:02am

Read the article. He is keeping his options open

Adrielle

Apr 27, 10:04am

If goodbyes were nails in coffins we'd have no use for half of our best love songs.

SinkingQuffa

Taylor Swift line?

LifeLongLakerFan

Apr 27, 10:07am

If it is — we wished upon the same star. Cuz I couldn't have possibly gotten it from her lyrics. 😉

SinkingQuffa

Apr 27, 10:08am

Wow. Even more Taylor Swift lyrics.

VenomFarmer

Apr 27, 10:40am

Ha. We on the same wave-length, you saying? Too bad she's got the eye for younger men, maybe?

SinkingQuffa

Apr 27, 10:46am

He's got a blankspace baby

BIG XII Coug

Apr 27, 10:11am

The suns game last night worked! He got jealous.

blackandblue

Apr 27, 10:05am

I'll say the same thing as Saunders in regards to UK Why go play for a coach

ImRonBurgundy?

Apr 27, 10:05am

Maybe because Pope gives him the freedom to shoot 10-12 3s per game.

Dr T-bone

Apr 27, 10:25am

Yes a lot of freedom but then didn't even get him the ball at the end of the

ImRonBurgundy?

Apr 27, 10:36am

Yeah, we shoulda never had Pope playing PG…

icecougar

Apr 27, 11:21am

Huh? He played 34 mins in the Duquesne game

icecougar

Apr 27, 11:15am

🙏

MrSandman

Apr 27, 10:06am

Had to declare by today, so my guess is he is waiting for a draft grade and then

Stucoug83

Apr 27, 10:06am

I thought he got 30 days from the date Pope left

byuwahoo

Apr 27, 2:57pm

Deadline for NBA was today. I believe

Stucoug83

Apr 27, 3:29pm

This will be a good test to see if CB has learned yet that you don’t trash

DieHarder

Apr 27, 10:07am

Has anyone trashed Robinson?

LifeLongLakerFan

Apr 27, 10:08am

Of course. Our idiot brigade would never let us down.

SinkingQuffa

Apr 27, 10:10am

Oh that’s rich coming from you. And I haven’t seen a single post “trashing” Jax.

Alan Schaefer

Apr 27, 12:24pm

The upstart millennial ranting about the sins of his own generation again. Joy.

SinkingQuffa

Apr 27, 12:30pm

No, the other examples are better examples of this

fattycoug

Apr 27, 10:11am

Not that I've seen.

No touching

Apr 27, 10:11am

Here is the relevant quote from the story that tells me BYU still has a decent shot of convincing him to stay.

Adrielle

Apr 27, 10:10am

Top 20 with another big or two added right?

4slyce

Apr 27, 10:44am

Yes. Definitely need another big man.

Adrielle

Apr 27, 10:57am

Whatever his ability is, he will certainly be much better after a year under KY

HighHorse

Apr 27, 12:28pm

Seems like he would return if he gets the type of NIL $ the big boys

JoeExotic

Apr 27, 10:11am

Kevin Young can start the recruitment by telling Jaxson all about his decade of experience in the G League

TCuz

Apr 27, 10:14am

He graduated yesterday with my daughter in the communications department. So I am sure he is probably keeping all his

cougsrule

Apr 27, 10:18am

He'll go NBA I'm pretty sure.

RGGeemer

Apr 27, 10:19am

You would think he would want to play for a former NBA assistant coach that

trumpetur

Apr 27, 10:34am

agreed - especially considering KY's g-league experience.

HarlemCoug

Apr 27, 10:35am

No way he goes to Kentucky. Pope didn't start him here, why would he start there

J. Walter Weatherman

Apr 27, 10:34am

Robinson seemed to prefer his role of the bench later in the season

JoeExotic

Apr 27, 10:40am

Why?

VenomFarmer

Apr 27, 10:42am

I don’t know but there were multiple reports from broadcasters

JoeExotic

Apr 27, 10:47am

He got rather aggitated one time even, saying he just wanted to win & didn't care whether he started or not.

Soupie

Apr 27, 10:47am

Jax started a couple games, and then realized his game was better off

BYUHgrad

Apr 27, 1:14pm

This quote isn’t a good sign IMHO

ColonelMustard

Apr 27, 11:09am

We'll be a better team than Kentucky next year - even if Jax goes there.

HarlemCoug

Apr 27, 11:27am

Depends on how convincing Coach Young and Devin Booker’s endorsement might be.

titlecoug

Jax: an awesomely talented player that…

Makes sense. Find out which is more profitable
