My hope is that both Demin & Catchings will realize the benefits of …

My hope is that they're both drafted in the top 10 next year & bring even more recruiting momentum to the PROvo approach

Amen. Yes please. Pipeline

My hope is they both are one and done players

Same, that will help others follow in the future. If we can't get guys slotted

They aren’t staying…NIL won’t match a lottery pick contract

Catchings will have too stay a second year to be a lottery pick IMO

Multiple 1st rounds during this current draft weighed less than 170 . . .

Yes but their talent justified taking a risk. Catchings doesn’t IMO

Jun 29, 12:17pm

I disagree, Johnson averaged 2.4 ppg. Weight isn’t going to be the issue

LakeshowCougs

Johnson would be a second round pick next year. Catchings will not be a lottery

puntersarepeople

Jun 29, 1:14pm

According to who? Johnson wasn’t projected to be a 1st round pick this year.

Ya mostly was talking Demin for the lottery…Catchings is mocked late 1st

PHXSUNS31

Jun 29, 12:11pm

He’d get a lot more if he came back for a second year probably

Jun 29, 12:17pm

More than 2.5 million?

PHXSUNS31

Jun 29, 12:18pm

No. But is the 2.5 million all guaranteed?

puntersarepeople

Jun 29, 12:19pm

The 30th pick this year gets 2 fully guaranteed years at 2.5 and 2.6 million

1st rounders almost always get all 4 years before teams give up.

True…gotta be real bad, or have a dumb team like the suns decline it:Jalen Smith

That's the thing w him. The "boy" is gonna fill out big time, that's pretty apparent. But when?

It’s pretty rare for a 1st round pick to pass that up and return to college

PHXSUNS31

Jun 29, 12:37pm

Unless they slip into the second round out out, then it is a consideration

The Big advantage isn't the rookie deal. It's getting to the 2nd deal earlier

I just hope they're ready to be men for us come November. Worry about the seasons following next March.

I hope they go 1 and 2 in the draft

The biggest difference is in the extension. Recruits at that level all think they’ll be getting near max extensions

Just not having to take classes and stud might be what says get me out of

NBA contract for a lottery pick >>> NIL

I hope they win the championship and become lotto picks. Them going to the NBA

"One and done" may be best for BYU (questionable), but not for them - watch ...

Jun 29, 2:16pm

I just hope CB realizes they made an informed decision, to stay or to go

NYC and Japan

Jun 29, 3:46pm

Them staying for more than one year is the worst thing that could happen to BYU basketball long term

Jun 29, 4:41pm

Somehow I think NBA teams have better NBA development than BYU.
