  • Seljaas is a bright spot. Bad Fisher is going to shoot us out of games.

    • Perhaps winning games would be easier if BYU didn't spot teams 25 point leads. Perhaps.

      • This team could be very dangerous if Kaufusi can stay out of foul trouble. His basketball iq is not the highest. His physical skills are very good and he has obviously worked very hard on his post moves.

            Yeah he did. It will be fun to watch his career.

            • Rose needs a guard who can score and this team doesn't have that. The post players are not good enough to run the offense through them either. There was preseason talk of being a better team defensively, but that isn't occurring either.

              Going to be a rough year for BYU basketball. With developing bigs and returning talent I think good things are bound to happen over the next few years, but this could be Rose's worst team.

                Emery can't score or is he not a guard?

                  Not sure what's going wrong. The individual parts seem greater than we've had since Jimmer, but the sum of the parts is not. I think if we can improve the D, the O will gel and this team could be very good. We'll see.

                  • Just two assists for BYU as a team in the first half.

                    These guys aren't playing well together yet but I agree there is potential and maybe they will figure it out.

                    • I think Colorado is the best team we have played this year.

                      • I kind of don't like the Pac 12 Network at all. This makes at least four times that I've gone out of my way to watch a basketball game on that network, only to lose (Utah x 2, Oregon, Colorado). Have we ever won a basketball game broadcast on the Pac 12 Network?

                          I don't think Emery is ready to be "The Man" like Jimmer or Haws. He is a true freshman status post mission and surgery. He may become the engine that drives the offense, but not yet.

                            So it's not that Rose doesn't have a guard who can score, it's that he doesn't have an all time great. I agree that would be awesome to have.

                              It seems the key problem is the replacement of nine new players and getting them to buy into the new system. One oddity of Rose's coaching style is how he allows or at least in this season, has allowed teams to run up big leads before calling a timeout. You wait until it's over twenty? I recognize there are limited timeouts but once he called the timeout the troops calmed down and started a run. This isn't soccer where you have to speak to the subs only to get new ideas over to the team.

                              There is not much athleticism on this team. Kyle Davis can only play against other slow white guys. Emery will be a player but his judgment is a bit misguided at times. It is an ugly team to watch at times against good teams. Another disappointing loss. Hawaii is our last chance to improve markedly and to garner a marquee win.

                                Maybe Rose has been fortunate to have a couple of all time guards, either way, his teams have featured a guard who could fill it up. This team is fine when Fischer is on, but when he is cold they seem lost. Collinsworth is not a scorer, and the freshmen guys show promise, but aren't there yet.

                                It isn't a criticism of Rose or the young guards, just an observation that a team reliant on it's shooting doesn't seem to have a shooter.
