Collin Chandler was an Incredible Missionary

He should feel a strong sense of pride in serving with honor

If he had chosen to come to BYU and succeeded there, considering that BYU is now in the Big 12, he would by drafted

He isn’t at BYU so he doesn’t help BYU.
Archaea

He’s still a good ambassador for the Church, which is a good thing

It is irrelevant to BYU sports.

You should probably turn off this category and enjoy the rest of your day 😉

I sure am glad that there are people like you in this world to “correct” others.

Look for someone else to criticize. You are who you are.

What are you even talking about? “If his other service was for the eyes of man?” Get outta here, man.

Rooting is a weird concept.

Just fine. Honored them.

Disagree. It's very relevant to Church owned BYU sports. Anything that enhances the Church, enhances BYU.

You’re irrelevant to BYU sports. He still has eligibility at least.

How many gave up potential millions in earning potential? I served but I can see

Sure, but that certainly was a unique factor in Chandler’s decision 💁

Where did he mention doing a service to BYU?

Exactly. Otherwise, why not commit to UK before his mission?

Uhhh...because Kentucky and Calapari had no interest in him?

Good point. All give up school, Gfs

his professional opportunity cost is much greater relative to almost all others

What a ridiculous statement. Who are you to judge the sacrifices of others?

Maybe. We don’t know if he is an nba player. But obviously that likelihood

It was simple for me to go on a mission — I had nothing better to do and nothing of note going on in my life. Like 99.7%

The idea that going to UK will make him more draftable than playing in the Big 12 is just silly.
