    Just tweeted.

    That must mean Davies will be back. Rose wouldn't let Anderson hang it up if he didn't know Davies was coming back.

      I hope you're right, but it seemed like at some points this past season that Big Game James was intent on doing his own thing in his own way and in his own time. I'm probably being harsh.
      Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!

      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."

          Same reason any kid signs with someone else besides BYU, they aren't strong enough to live the HC.

            Island life versus Utah Valley. That and apparently he has a lot of family on the islands.

              Playing for LDS coach. Family in Hawaii. He gets to be the man and focus of their offense.

                Because he didn't feel that he could live the honor code. Duh.

                  But he's white and an RM, correct? According to the article, he would have had no problems.

                    Or, it could explain why the coaches have told Nate Austin that they weren't expecting him to redshirt.

                    I believe I've already mentioned this in this thread. If not, there it is, coaches have told Nate Austin that it wasn't likely he would redshirt.

                      He's a wing and he doesn't believe we need a wing. He still feels snubbed that we went with Stephen Rogers instead of him. He doesn't like the mountains. He wants to surf.

                        Better conference.
                        When a true genius appears, you can know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in a confederacy against him.

                              They do?

                              Brandon Davies
                              Chris Collinsworth
                              Ian Harward
                              Nate Austin
                              Noah Hartsock
                              Walk-on from Blinn

                              What was a weakness for BYU last year will be a strength this year. The back court and wing positions is where we need help.

                                Yup. We need a PG and a 2/3.
