Do you think Darrion Williams goes NBA or stays in college another year? With

I agree, he would round out a BYU starting 5 that is Final Four worthy.

I would have voted for sometime within the next month or so. It could take time, or not.

I thought BYU isn’t full share till next year.

This graphic made me realize I'd missed the fact BYU finally finished ahead of both Zags & SMC. Here's to B12 & KY!

Soupie Grandma Sycamore

10:22pm

Which of the teams ahead of us would BYU beat in a three game series?

Borg

10:32pm

St johns was pretty good at end of year, they might have beat us.

robin

10:35pm

Houston, they already did.

Blue for Life

10:35pm

He was asking who byu would beat not who would beat byu

brycehausen

10:37pm

Yep, we would not beat Houston.

Blue for Life

10:40pm

Probably all of them.

Malathion

10:36pm

Think we're ranked fairly here which means we'd probably lose to those ahead of us in 2 of 3 games.

Soupie

10:37pm

We could beat Kentucky in a three game series

brycehausen

10:38pm

We need to start being honest about this. AJ is not the #1 HS recruit. That title belongs to Darryn Peterson.

scootsy It's the Driving Crooner, Baby

The final update isn't out, but they already announced the #1 spot.

In their rankings. Which is obviously part of the composite.

JuicyJam

10:18pm

The bigger question is who’s the number one NBA lottery pick next year ?

BYU DUDE 1984

10:10pm

He's pretty likely the #1 pick in the 2026 draft. They play different positions

GfB

10:10pm

Well, look at this

AF Cougar

10:13pm

That one doesn’t count because it disagrees with his position.

RE: Well, look at this

scootsy

Only a loser would pretend an ESPN ranking doesn't matter.

byubyu

10:21pm

If you think ESPN or Rivals do better job evaluating recruits than 247 then I know you've literally never followed

scootsy

10:25pm

So is that a yes for you?

byubyu

10:31pm

So only the ratings he likes and feigns are superior matter.

Archaea

10:38pm

We all know ranking HS recruits is an exact science that 247 alone has mastered

ldssdl

Look at this:

Pretty sure AJ remains #1 on most rating boards. But Peterson is outstanding and might turn out to be better.

AJ is widely regarded as the best HS prospect in several years IIRC

vagabonder

10:19pm

Are you going to refer to all the rankings? Or just the ones that let you troll?

Should I keep using the gold standard AP Poll, or instead refer to the Anderson & Hester Computer Rankings?
