These threads have been analogous to political discourse and media consumption.

People get so defensive over something that they think is a slight to their side that they stop using any sort of reasoning ability.

I kept reading responses to your post and wondering if the responses were supposed to be for another thread. They make no sense.

According to krindorr, our new team is still worse than last year.

Who's krindorr and why are they coming after us like this? What did we do to

krindorr is a regular CBer who brings lots of solid analysis and stats to conversations.

You know something's wrong when yewts love a certain "BYU fan" poster.

Heaven forbid someone temper highs or lows with meaningful data. I guess some people love an echo chamber.

Tokolosh

Jun 3, 10:30am

Yeah, that's not what he does. And I'm pretty sure that's not why yewts like him

Brandoblueblood

Jun 3, 12:07pm

Very odd description, if you are referring to krindorr. Generally realistically

NYC and Japan

Jun 3, 12:22pm

Disagree. All you need to know: originally listed himself as only a yewt.

Brandoblueblood

Jun 3, 1:01pm

Clearly that influences your interpretation. The post you reference has nothing

NYC and Japan

Jun 3, 1:26pm

He outright said he's a yewt. Now whose assumptions are garbage?

Brandoblueblood

Jun 5, 10:20pm

OP misrepresents Krindorr's post. Krindorr noted roster turnover is now normal.

One problem is Colin Chandler and Isaac Davis weren't on last year's roster

Ol Big Bear

Jun 3, 9:03am

And Marcus Adams didn’t play

cougaman

Jun 3, 9:12am

100%, my post was about turnover, not comparing rosters

krindorr

Jun 3, 2:02pm

Can’t include players that weren’t on the team as “turnover”. If you want to

cougaman

Jun 3, 2:05pm

Was highlighting how different the roster looks from what was expected in March

krindorr

Jun 3, 2:08pm

But SJ and Adams weren’t expected to be in next years roster, so not sure how

cougaman

Jun 3, 2:27pm

Yeah, highlighting the uncertain nature of the roster was exactly the point

krindorr

Jun 3, 2:39pm

Gotcha. Some took that and ran with it saying the roster is worse.

cougaman

Jun 3, 3:37pm

To me that is a reasonable take. We don't even know who our full staff is. We

At this pt that MIGHT be fair. Not in a way any of us are too worried about. Last year had no one like Egor, Keba & Mag.

You’re going to see positionless basketball running through Egor. And it’s going

yup with multiple primary ball-handlers/facilitators on the floor at same time..

My expectation for MBB, like last season, is to be competitive. This team isn't

Forzaitalia

Jun 3, 9:14am

I think we could very easily finish worse than last year and have a better team

JOPE

Jun 3, 9:16am

I don't think that's what he was saying at all.

cougarfan84

Jun 3, 9:26am

Thanks, I'd agree that's not what he was saying

krindorr

Jun 3, 2:05pm

This is the wrong assumption, 3 of the departures never played for BYU

Dr T-bone

Jun 3, 9:39am

Kridorr's posts: 1. I love BYU. 2. BYU sucks 3. I swear I love BYU.

Brandoblueblood

Jun 3, 10:07am

Only if you don’t actually read what krindorr wrote and don’t force what he

NYC and Japan

Jun 3, 12:54pm

How do you interpret his statement that he's a yewt before suddenly BYU fan?

Brandoblueblood

Jun 3, 1:06pm

Hall, Saunders, Fous, and Knell collectively averaged about 92 minutes per game

Doogal McCougar

JUST in terms of team chemistry, he might be correct.

I think there are practices next week based on discussion on Criddle show

Other the coaching change, this is how it will be for 80%+ of schools

USU had an incredible roster rebuild result with new players and coaches. BYU

Krinny is a self-described Utah and BYU fan. He offers nothing.

Forbidden Fruit

Jun 3, 11:43am

Originally said he was a (solely) a yewt before changing his mind I guess.

Brandoblueblood

Jun 3, 1:07pm

Krindorr in a comment in that thread specifically said, not necessarily true

NYC and Japan

Jun 3, 12:23pm

Wow you're really going all-in on a dude who originally listed himself as a yewt

Brandoblueblood

Krindorr's experience today

Yeah. Some CBers struggle with reading comprehension & nuanced analysis.
