Might be more like 7’2.

He will be inexperienced. If we face him I hope we can turn him over. And maybe we can find another center with elite length for tough matchups.

I was watching through a window up above and one of the administrators saw

Did Egor play mostly outside or did he attack the rim?

Big Daddy D

Jun 29, 12:34pm

He shot the 3 if he was open but otherwise pretty much attacked the basket.

Byufloridaguy

How did 3gor’s 3 look?

VinnyBYU

Jun 29, 1:52pm

Didn’t force anything but knocked down most of the open looks. I was surprised

I live a few miles from the Annex... is it a thing that I can stop by and watch

Was Egor quick enough to beat people off the dribble? Same with Catchings?

Mostlyaccurate

Jun 29, 12:12pm

Both looked quick. Catchings seemed like he could get his shot off

Just mainline this straight into my veins.

Can we get volunteers to rotate and watch on a daily basis

What time was that? Curious if it's a set time on specific days?

This was just free play today. No coaches

How did Hall compare to them?

byuchocolatemilk

Jun 29, 1:53pm

Hall shot pretty well but didn’t drive to the basket much.

Name of recruit who was playing?

VinnyBYU

Jun 29, 1:53pm

Not sure. One of the guys said he was a high school kid. Had short hair that

Byufloridaguy

Jun 29, 3:13pm

Was it dean rueckert from timpview? Sounds like it would match his discription

Trevhisk

Jun 29, 6:48pm

My bet is Dean Rueckert - see pics in link

VinnyBYU

Jun 29, 7:34pm

I don’t think so. This kid had real short hair.

Keita undersized vs Davies

VinnyBYU

Jun 29, 1:56pm

That's more about the way Keita is built. More of a 6'8 big. We don't have

Plato

He has a 7’4” wingspan

puntersarepeople

Jun 29, 2:41pm

That’s according to aUte fan post on Ute Hub. Haven’t seen that supported any…

And Fous has a 7'2" wingspan & can jump. Sometimes being a short 5 is a disad-

Missi and Dickinson were the only 2 who gave us those kinds of issues last year

puntersarepeople

Jun 29, 8:09pm

We agree. Fine in most games. More concern if BYU faced an Edey & Clingan in B12

Yep. I'm thinking about heading to San Diego for that tourney.

Forzaitalia

Jun 29, 9:57pm

"outa the gym" per Fowler. Just not see'n that. Fouss is quick, but a leaper or an above-average athlete he is not.

SinkingQuffa

Jun 29, 9:39pm

How do you define above avg athlete?

icecougar

Jun 30, 5:03pm

Yeah, I'm talk'n D1 standard. Fouss is obviously an athletic beast compared to the average man his size (very few men

SinkingQuffa

Wingspans aren't that relevant in the post when you're getting backed down and all leveraged up trying to

mokelembembe

Jun 30, 7:16am

Wouldn’t being short make it easier to have leverage

puntersarepeople

Having shoulders & elbows higher off the floor does give you rebounding advantages prob even greater than larger hands.

SinkingQuffa

We might get destroyed down low.

karatekid

Jun 29, 2:19pm

"destroyed". We weren't destroyed last season with less length and hops. Why the cynicism?

CLCougar

Jun 29, 2:35pm

Davies is a 10 year pro and would be the best player in the NCAA at this point

puntersarepeople

Jun 29, 2:42pm

This is true. I wish Davies didn’t get in trouble ugh what if

karatekid

Jun 29, 2:49pm

Still waiting for a cogent explanation why you used the word of maybe getting destroyed this season when we weren't last

CLCougar

Jun 29, 9:10pm

Probably the best resource our players have to play against

LeonMarek

Jun 29, 2:49pm

Davies is 6’10” at most so if keita is undersized against him? Not good

BYU '80

Jun 29, 3:30pm

if that's all we've got to worry about, will be fine.

Uh oh, sound the CB alarm, start the panic, better yet, start some rumors about

I'm telling you...CB is not going to be content until we have a 6'11 white guy
