      Edit: and don't gloss over the rebounding. It has been great tonight.
      I misspoke. Effort is better, ability is still in question. And when your shooting is this abysmal and you're playing an undersized team you're going to get a lot more rebounds.

        Can we get Aytes a bigger jersey? He looks like a church ball player.
        Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

          If this team is do anything, players like Aytes will be important. I wonder why Dastrup isn't seeing any minutes with the injury to KD.

            Rose and Shaw having nice games. Basketball doesn't appear close to loving Chachi.

              It's not automatic. We missed 41 shots against UVU and had 11 offensive rebounds. They are similar size to USU, might even be a little smaller. But it goes back to effort again.

                Rose is like Avery Johnson. Teams are going to give him that open three until he shows he can consistently hit it.

                  USU's shorts look dirty. Like the color snow gets when its been splashed with mud.

                    Given the erratic play of the freshmen, I love the mentality and help of Rose.

                      12 point lead with 46 seconds to go. Only one sweating now is MRD.

                        I seem to remember BYU losing with Fred Roberts against Ralph Sampson's Virginia with very little time left. No lead is large enough for me.

                              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."
