But I think tall perimeter players are what Rose would prefer at the 4. I think Austin has the skillset to be a good 4 for BYU but for some reason he seems to not be any better today than he was this time a year ago. I think Sharp is just limited against physical teams because of his slight build. My memory was Collinsworth was much stronger and thicker.
Further, if BYU is going to continue to play more zone defenses they need more athleticism from the bottom 3 defenders. Collinsworth is more able to go get a rebound than Austin and Sharp. I also think BYU will need another legit scorer on the court other than Haws and Carlino. I don't think it will be Mika, Austin or Sharp but I think Collinsworth will be more important to have on the court than Austin or Sharp. So I am hoping the legit scorer will come from JC and take a perimeter starting position and Collinsworth will move to the 4.Last edited by Flystripper; 01-28-2013, 10:18 AM.Dyslexics are teople poo...

Originally posted by Flystripper View PostThe only quibble I have is that I think Sharp is a fantastic rebounder especially on the offensive end. He is the best athlete on the team and his athleticism allows him to rebound out of his area which is a skill and ability that is not shared by anyone else on the team. That skill alone will continue to get Sharp a ton of minutes even when KC returns.Do Your Damnedest In An Ostentatious Manner All The Time!

Did BYU hoops hit an iceberg I'm not aware of? Move along now ...
Wapiti lamented the dearth of JUCO basketball options in this state. Fact is, even if those schools still played JUCO ball, they wouldn't be the feeders today that they were for D-1 programs a decade-plus ago. Prep schools have greatly reduced the impact JUCOs have on the D-1 game.

I've always enjoyed Henderson's energy on the floor. Unfortunately it hurt him off of the court.
I remember when the Utes got a commitment from him, I Googled him up, and read about how he got kicked out of 3 basketball games as a senior in HS, on the team that his dad coached. I told a Ute buddy of mine that he's "(g)oing to be either very good, or he will flame out in spectacular fashion. Either way, it will be entertaining."
I have no grudge against the kid. In a way I envy his zest and passion. I really hope that he has his personal life straightened out. I'd hate to see that talent and personality go to waste.
