The potential is there. Hopefully Pope can sort out lineups earlier than he did

last year. It's hard to sort all that out with a lot of new key contributors and big question marks surrounding Baxter's fitness.

Make no mistake about it, Pope is pumped about this team

I think it's safe to say that ... Pope is pumped

I will not be surprised if this team gets into the top ten.

clocker

8/7/21 6:15pm

Man, I hope you're right. I'll say - I won't be surprised if this team advances

At least your goalposts have been moved.

It's BYU. History says, we'll find a way

I think that TeJ is going to be a revelation

Why are you on here spouting this nonsense? We don't have nice things here.

Uhm... I'll have what he's smoking, please. Lol

There’s backcountry and then there’s you… I guess no middle ground

I would agree on the top 25. Top 10 is a whole 'nother level...

Lohner?

Dark Forest Green

I hope he can step up and become a reliable contributor on offense...

Agreed. Top 10 is ambitious for this squad. Top 25 is very doable, though.

Not to mention, amped, psyched, jazzed and stoked.

Time will tell but I don’t think this will be Pope’s best team. I think Yoeli, Toolson, Haws, & Barcello was a better

Gonzaga will be too good.

The lineup will be easy

You are wrong on George. He has a LONG way to go.

I like that Knight is here to teach him how to use his physique. Particularly

1) Avrette was originally P5 athlete (OK St) so we have to wait on what P5 TeJ

This is probably a better/more realistic outlook on the upcoming season at this

basman

I think guys like Knell and Hunter could make it tough.

Zastava

8/7/21 9:23pm

Or small with Lohner, Knight, Knell, AB and Lucas

icecougar

8/9/21 9:47am

Sure! Knight could definitely play SF.

Zastava

8/9/21 9:58am

I think he has good reason to be. This back court could be special.

Zastava

8/7/21 8:47pm

I'll give him that the team looks very athletic, more than usual for us.

Mitty

8/7/21 9:19pm

Pope must have confidence in Harward, Baxter, Lohner, Atiki and Traore.

Zastava

8/7/21 10:26pm

Lee was so challenged on defense and spacing. He was very good for a couple

most fans were pretty optimistic about last season until Game 3 and getting

it is going to be a matter of chemistry, not talent.

Don't know about top 10 or 20 yet. Defensive PPP might be down without Haarms.
