SinkingQuffa Intervention Needed

Doubt it. They proved from the Providence kid they want a lockdown guy still in their backcourt. KY explicitly

stated this when explaining why they were prioritizing another guard in Lanier. This is more of the type of player Boone is. Defensively, he's a 2 before he's a 4 I think.

They're still looking for that guy — on top of a PF.

Boone shouldn't command nearly so much as Catchings, of course.

Robby McCombs retweeted this from Jeff Goodman. Someone KY is going to look at?

That mean we moved on from Catchings?

Both could play on the wing or at the 4 so there is space in the lineup for both

After watching some film, I agree. I remember Boone — but offensively he's a bit diff than I remember.

Absolutely, we want both players. We already have several injury prone guys. We've never had anything close to an injury

In Robbie's article earlier today he speculated that it could be an either/or

After lookin at some tape I gotta correct myself, at least offensively. He's more a 4 than I thought. Versatile on D but

We have 2 scholly's and if Kanon is still visiting FSU you'd want a contingency

If Robby retweets I'm sure we will pursue. Could be a contingency plan as well

I wonder if he may have quoted it more in reference to the NCAA ruling.

It's a pretty crazy rule to apply on TOP of a Covid freebie. Boone will have played 6 productive years of college ball.

Yes please. He would immediately be our starting 4.

That experience could provide nice stability and leadership for us

And if we do get both they're guys who can be positionless and flex between..

Or, bring im in --& RS either Richie or Fouss-- & gift either a skillset they can grow their game from where it's stuck.

What’s stuck about Richie’s game?

icecougar

Ball handling. Plays too upright. Given his quick-trigger jumper, it's a shame he has no pull-up game.

Go back and watch the film, he hit a lot of mid-range pull up shots last seaso…

It's rudimentary. He doesn't have the handles to shake a guy & get it off.

Boone would be the true PF BYU needs. Let's go!
