BYU Hoops - What are our WEAKNESSES?
GREAT preview from Robbie, worth the $10 for sure.

We have discussed ALL of these on the board, so none of them is new, but he fleshes EACH of these out in detail with conversations with KY + multiple industry experts in the preview:

1) Back-up duties at point for Dallin. Egor will take on some of the load, but is Elijah ready? Some continued trepidation on what Dawson can deliver as he's really a 2 there and despite him being healthy TODAY, his health is still a concern - two foot surgeries are two foot surgeries.
2) Rebounding (this concern actually came directly from KY) but he (KY) gives some good thoughts on what they can do there to help (buy it to see exactly what he says - it's good commentary)
3) Kind of an extension to #2, lack of size in the frontcourt - can Keba stay on the floor without fouling / has Fouss reached his ceiling? Not sure this insider knew about Boskovic when he said this so perhaps that alleviates SOME of that concern.
4) Can this team mesh / find a groove (my contacts say they can, but last year's team chemistry was simply ELITE, so it's not as tight as last year)
5) Not a weakness per se but the Big 12 has gotten a lot better too - such a tough conference. The 5 toughest are definitely - Kansas, Baylor, Houston, Iowa St, and Arizona.
