FWIW, Nate's mission president told the missionaries that he would rather have them exercising and working out rather that sitting on their butts during the pandemic so Nate was able to play a few hours of basketball every day and work out. Came home in good shape.
He still might be after this upcoming year, but time will tell. On the other hand maybe he will be a really good basketball player and he will be that elusive point guard of the future that Pope has never seemed to find and convince to come to BYU.Do Your Damnedest In An Ostentatious Manner All The Time!

I'm choosing to mostly ignore your fatuity here and instead overwhelm you with so much data that you'll maybe, just maybe, realize that you have reams to read on this subject before you can contribute meaningfully to any conversation on this topic.

For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

Somebody on the other sports site indicated he came home at 6'4" and 200 lbs- so real good size for a college guard. I never spent a great deal of time reading about his recruitment etc, but I just recall thinking that he wasn't going to be a huge difference maker. Hence, as these scholarship crunches started piling up I had always assumed that he would be a casualty of that.

The roster is set, I think:
Seniors:
Alex Barcello
Te'Jon Lucas
Juniors:
Gideon George
Seneca Knight
Richard Harward
Gavin Baxter
Sophomores:
Trevin Knell
Spencer Johnson
Freshman:
Caleb Lohner
Hunter Ericson
Atiki Atiki
Trey Stewart
Fous Traore
Nate Hansen
14 Scholarship players.
I think your starters will be
1.) Te'Jon Lucas
2.) Barcello
3.) Seneca Knight
4.) Caleb Lohner
5.) Gavin Baxter
Your 6th man will be Gideon George who can literally come in for any of the 5 starters.
I expect Knell to come off the bench to shoot the ball and create some space on offense. Harward will play as a back up 5 when matchups demand a big. I also think Johnson will play quite a bit as a wing. I think the above 9 will be the standard rotation with a few minutes to Hunter Ericson to get him some experience as I think he will be in the rotation the following year.
The addition of Knight is huge in my opinion. Having both George and Knight allows BYU to play more small ball as either George or Knight can play both the 3 and 4. I think Knight can also play the 2. I really like that Knight has two years of eligibility and can be somebody BYU can have with experience as a perimeter scorer after Barcello and Lucas move on. I also think that Knight's arrival allows Pope to use Gorgeous George more the way he wanted to last year as a defensive stopper whose offensive game is still developing. I do think George will get his chance to be a starter and consistent offensive contributor his senior year.
I can see Traore being the reserve big if BYU needs somebody other than Lohner, Baxter and Harward so he will probably see some spot duty. I doubt Atiki, Stewart or Hansen ever play when it matters next year.
There is certain to be attrition after next year as BYU already has 15 players allocated scholarships and I expect BYU to go after a grad transfer PG after the season and BYU is recruiting a couple of bigs, Jaxon Kohler and Adem Bona, who would come in as true freshman. If they do sign a big I would expect either Baxter or Harward to move on. I would think if Baxter doesn't make it through this year healthy he will be done with hoops and Harward might just grad transfer someplace else.
I really think the extent to which this team improves will be driven by how much better Caleb Lohner is. But I think this will be a very good BYU team.Do Your Damnedest In An Ostentatious Manner All The Time!
