For Saunders it comes down to the role he wants to play. At BYU he will have a

agree 100% - maybe we should get you on the line with RS to explain that to him!

I’d rather have Richie. Special motor. CP3 will find us a PG

CP3 is recruiting PGs for us?

Might be PG-13s

Richie, tell Popey to suck eggs. He will drop you like bad habit for next season when he can get someone more talented
CLCougar

Exactly. Pope always tries to recruit over his current roster. Just ask Connor

Oh how I wish someone Richie respects and trusts would tell him this. The problem is, it's possible

"HIS current roster"? Sorry, but he walked into those 2 kids. That sorta shaving happens all the time w coaching changes

True but trading Harding for Seneca was a bad trade. To bad Harding wasn't

We needed a PF. Sux, but we had to take a chance w that.

Seneca was a bust. Everything about him was overrated, especially his shooting

Pope knows the value of guy like Saunders

And he will walk away when he gets a better player-Saunders should realize that

Pope always recruits over his current roster and runs off players if he thinks

Pope may recruit over him the very next day.

Pope is good at compartmentalizing. He will sing your praises w/hyperbole & then

Saunders is great for a team like BYU, but he will not be what he

Pope actually under played Saunders last year in my opinion.

Agree, total head scratcher that Knell got more minutes than Saunders last year.

I love RS but would Kentucky pay that much for him?

Doesn't BYU alumni have a huge professional network, especially for athletes?

Saunders' dilemma reminds me of Caleb Lohner's decision
pspcres

I suspect the legacy and alumni network taking care of someone are less value

on a counterpoint, the top elite recruits aren't flocking to Pope at UK right

Thought foreign students couldn’t get nil?

they can - it's just more complicated
VinnyBYU
Apr 19, 2:50pm
I don't think so. They would have to have a Work Visa. It was discussed pretty extensively on Big 12 radio yesterday.

this professor makes some distinction about passive vs. active NIL. not sure

I'm not believing Saunders is seriously considering Kentucky
aaronmania
Apr 19, 2:40pm
I can tell you with 100% certainty he is
VinnyBYU
Apr 19, 2:50pm
then he should go. make up your mind and do whatever you want
airbug

UK's NIL is HUGE! I fault Saunders in no way if he is "considering" UK.
BYUHgrad
Apr 19, 2:53pm
I'd like 300k a year too.

Apr 19, 3:00pm
So Khalifa is now on a work visa?
Les IsMore
Apr 19, 3:02pm
Yeah, Khalifa is ineligible to receive NIL so I doubt the OP is accurate.

Nothing would mess up Saunders pro path more than going to UK and not playing.

It's possible Popey just wants him to serve as the token "fanatical effort" guy, and that he's only used as

All of the money for coach means nothing if we continue to lose nil wars

I disagree. I think Saunders could play meaningful minutes anywhere he goes.

Yes but not as a starter at UK. Pope never started Richie even though he was
