I'd say 5-10 together. UNLESS Catchings struggles guarding the 4 & holding his own in the paint on D. Keita could play

a lot more 4 than I think is ideal — IF we need it from him. If it comes to that, hopefully he can adjust. Athletically, I think he has it in him.

Interesting prediction on minutes per game for the coming season…

Way too much Keita and Fous

Carve out 30 min for Demin and 10 for Knell by cutting from Stewart,

Fouss, yes. Prob 20ish per for him. Keita will be on the floor a LOT. For D, boards & just presence.

Right but the distro here has them on the floor 15-20 min together.

Why would guarding the 4 be a struggle for Catchings? The 4 in college bball...

Cuz he's a Frosh, pure & simple. I'm not saying it'll happen — but it's a common deal of these 1-n-done players.

You could do it if both players were better passers and had a good sense of...

Neither guy is a natural passer

Same thing happened in the Duquesne game. Every time he touched it in the post..

Stewart might get 17 minutes the entire season.

yorksama

Stewart and mag getting the same…17 min

I’d think your correct.

There is no way that Crawford gets 1.7 minute per game. I am not saying that

84 natlchamps

Jul 6, 2:26pm

Agreed. I think he'll surprise BYU fans and play more than many think he will

Knell should be between 15-20 minutes per game.

Baker is more versatile and can score off the bounce as well as catch and shoot

icecougar

Jul 6, 4:21pm

Knell more minutes than Baker? Koz more than Mag? Fous 10 min more than Keba?

My main point is, Mag is on the outside

Homo Erectus

Jul 6, 8:29pm

It seems really unlikely that we brought in Mag just to average 6 min a night

tacallaway

Jul 6, 9:13pm

Good points, but Mag was signed before either Egor or Catchings.

Homo Erectus

Jul 7, 12:29am

I think Knell starts both halves playing 5~7 minutes each half.

BYUHgrad

Jul 6, 6:10pm

Maybe KY's that kind to him — to start the season. But this is a HC who wanted Lanier in the mix. Baker's therefore

SinkingQuffa

Jul 6, 6:42pm

I don’t see Egor as a primary ball-handler

Homo Erectus

Jul 6, 8:34pm

I don't think he'll play that role more than Dallin, but regardless, he's a very good ball handler for us.

SinkingQuffa

Jul 6, 9:11pm

100% Agreed. Signed Sean Livingston, Kyle Anderson, Earvin Johnson etc

icecougar

Jul 7, 4:36pm

That's the best list you could come up with?

Homo Erectus

Jul 7, 8:12pm

Had Penny on my mental list but got interrupted when typing and inadvertently…

icecougar

Jul 7, 10:04pm

Pretty sure nobody will get over 39 min/game this year.

BYUCPA

Jul 6, 3:53pm

Hard to trust an algorithm that doesn’t know Knell and Egor are on the team

This is true
