If we had more than 1-2 scholarships to work w I'd prefer a stronger word/strategy as well.

But the fact of the matter is we got no one even close to as position-sound at the 4 than we do at the 1. And that's before we even factor Chandler as a contributor. Hopeful or not.

Like I said above, I WISH we had the scholarship flexibility to offer a talent like Kriisa to man our PG spot.

Minutes gobbler at PG. I don't think he would be a fit currently.

I'd love to see him on our team. He'd fit right in with Aly Khalifa and Dallin

Apr 2, 1:05pm

May be hard this time with Dallin heavily ingrained at point.

I would pass, I don't think we need more PG minutes assuming Baker is healthy

Probably right

True there is a question mark.

I don't think Pope is just "hoping" for either of those things. He knows where

Try Chandler not Baker at backup 1. Chandler was an excellent combo

I listed both of them.

Yah, I noticed. Sorry for the duplication. Always appreciate your posts.

He also doesn't really complement our skillset all that well

Healthy Baker = big assumption. We need PG help.

Hard pass.

He’s a good player and would be a solid add.

If he's turned down BYU twice already...probably doesn't want to be here and

Will Chandler become a PG, ComboG, or 2 and off the ball?

CMAC38

Combo initially probably moving to full time PG when Hall leaves (if he is still

kimdaddy35

Apr 2, 2:05pm

If that is the case. No need for 1 year player and the NIL he would demand.

CMAC38

The consensus pre-injury was that Baker was the best player on the floor

MadHawaiian

I thought it was more that he was the most accomplished player offensively

Mitty

I have said this before, but B12 teams seemingly each had 2-3 pg/combo guards

Captain Stubing

I thought he was really good at Arizona. Crowd favorite

Croweater

Can't imagine he would want to come, but if he does you take him.

I won't wait standing up.

We would definitely take him if we had a scholarship for a PG. He'd probably be our best shooter.

Lack of PG depth IS the most glaring. Especially with the the Big12 being a PG..

icecougar

I think our inability to pressure the rim either way is a much more glaring issue. I presume Pope

Pope has more than winning & losing games at stake as a BYU HC, too.
