I don't hear him say that about Egor ...he just says there's a transition period

and to temper expectations, which is always a good idea.

POLL: Egor Demin will ~match Jaxson Robinson's Senior yr BYU production.

If he even tries on defense he will be better than Robinson was.

I hope he's better, but do we have any idea about how gritty and tough Demin is?

Based on highlights, I though Egor was more aggressive and active. Especially

Highlights don’t show when he goes for a steal and gets beat back door tho

This is true, they also don’t show when someone doesn’t go for a steal and still

He's clearly a more complete player than Jax. Bigger, quicker, better handles

Expecting 14.2 points out of a freshman is a lot.

Jun 6, 12:11pm

True. 14.2 is a lot in college and led the team last year.

Hell make up for it with more rebounds and especially passing

Demin, 18, is arguably the most notable prospect to ever commit to the BYU

Jun 6, 2:32pm

Hopefully. Jaxson seemed pretty average.

Man, I'd love to have several "average" players like Jaxson on the team. There

Trinity

Jun 6, 12:21pm

We do have several average players on the team like Jaxson.

ochobeeguy

Jun 6, 1:09pm

Jaxson is better than average.

Trinity

Jun 6, 1:16pm

Yes, but in part because he does more than just score.

runnincoug

He'll easily outpace Jax's meager 2.5 rebounds per game

Hinta

Jun 6, 12:21pm

Doubt it. They want Demin to lead the break

puntersarepeople

Jun 6, 12:43pm

Keep in mind that the last 20 games of the regular season he only shot 28% from

I would guess overall production much better

Dr T-bone

Jun 6, 12:26pm

I don’t expect as much as 14.2 ppg from Robinson this year

Will Egor Demin even make it to BYU? Jon Rothstein didn't seem too sure on SN.

Jun 6, 2:24pm

Can you elaborate??

Sorry, there's not much to say. See the interview below, at about the 3:15 mark.

Jun 6, 3:24pm

Around 3:15 mark I heard him talk about similar situations at UCLA and Xavier

cwilke1

Jun 6, 3:32pm

That makes sense. Thanks for the added context. I obviously misunderstood him.

Jun 6, 11:10pm

I don't hear him say that about Egor ...he just says there's a transition period

Sorry, my misunderstanding. Thanks for setting me straight.
