      I haven't seen Haws before tonight. I like what I see so far.

Red haired, freckled, skinny and prematurely balding....not to mention a youtube video out there I am sure of him breaking down into tears when his older brother began their religiously mandated cultural coming of age event. I can think of nothing more ignominious than watching that kid tear apart my team, but alas many will have to find a way to come to terms with it over the next few years.
        Dang, just watching the BYUtv replay and the kid is pretty good, receding hairline and all.

            Its not just that Haws is skinny, gimger, and balding. He has bad posture amd his gait is a little awkward. But that crossover though!

            It may take until mid January for this team to hit their stride, but man we have some weapons.

              I believe it's spelled gymger.

              Also, someone please explain Dastrup's hair. Disquieting.

                  I like the hair. He's got a kind of cool Squiggy/Travis Bickle thing going on.

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                      Lots of work to do. We ran a lot of people through our sets against spu but even so, needed better execution. Many of the guys are slow in picking up the offense. Same with the D. We showed a lack of ability to move to the correct defensive position as a unit. Work to do.

                        Yeah, defense was disappointing.

                          Defensively way too much chasing the ball and far too many FTs allowed against what should be a far inferior opponent.

                          This team has to learn to defend without fouling.
                          I'm like LeBron James.

                            I don't like lag man defense with full switching on screens against a team that lacks size. It was tough to watch.

                              That's basically what I took away, too. Lots of pieces with potential, but plenty of work to do to put everything together.

                                This.

                                Yoeli Childs had 5 fouls in 9 minutes of play and 2 rebounds.
