didn't get much sleep because I stayed up too late.
I like, we played basketball at my church on Thursday
nights and it starts at nine, and you know, normally
you're supposed to be done by midnight, you know, so
you can get some sleep, But me, I didn't do.
So my friends and I the brothers who I've invited
to we like to play one on ones after and
this is going to be crazy, and I don't know
how many other people have ever done this stand up late,
but I didn't get in the bed to what is
it three to eight in the morning, three o eight
because I stayed up playing one one, one on ones,
and that was after showering. I probably could have stayed
up till five.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 3: And look, my body's feeling it right now, obviously. But
I did ice, you know a little bit. Because I
haven't played rugby, I'm able to still do that. But
never again am I gonna stay up to playing one
on one basketball with my friends going at it. I
did win some games. There is a video that I
can't put on the ex's because of some cute words.
But I shot a logo three as someone else who's
gonna have their jersey retired tomorrow shot a logo three.
I was trying to channel my inner gimmer. The stroke
wasn't as smooth as jimmer. It wasn't as fluid, but
it was all net. It clashed. I got the video.
If you want the video, I can send it to you.
It's me and my family member's my you know, cousin
in law. Just for that story, people like cousin in law.
My sister married obviously a guy. His cousin comes to
play basketball, So there you go. A shot at the geared.
I always appreciate getting bucket on him and my friend
Jamo and Bright love those guys. But anyway, check out
the rest of our ESPN the fans starting lineup. We're
gonna get into the Parker Kingston update there is so
I'm gonna wait for Ben to get in and then
we can discuss that a little bit. We'll discuss that
as well in our five oh five segment leaving it
open today as well, We're gonna get here into that
in the nitty gritty, We're gonna get into our band
of today and our question of today, and just a
little bit in the next segment, gonna get into a
world to bou Sports segment at three oh five with
Lane Alo of the owner of Game Day Men's Health,
just get his thoughts on everything going around, the BAU
basketball game tomorrow against Colorado, the jimmer for de Jersey retirement,
the update on Parkrick Kingston. Where does BA football go
from here? I guess the depth of the wide receiver
room springball is still a couple of weeks away. Even
with the bad news of Parker Kingston, who I don't
think is going to be playing football for BYU or
this season at all. At three thirty, Tad Welch, a
beat ride of the Desert News is gonna be joining us.
Clark Gilbert got called to be as a member of
the Korm of the Twelve Apostles. That's gonna be our
missionary moment at three point thirty. Have to discuss that
with them.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 3: Someone else is gonna be over the Church education you
know program? Who is that going to be right? We're
gonna discuss that with Chad and all of those that
look these these important things that happen. I'm in the
church to effect by they affected in a positive way.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 3: And and Clark Elakark liber excuse me, want to be
respectful has been on the good side of that and
pushing the good fight. Gonna get into a little inside
of Porter of three forty five. Matt Brown of Extra
Points mb dot com will join us for a college
football segment at four oh five. Brandon Cgourney of the
Daily Herald will join us at four thirty four Little
Cougar Beat, and then I close out the show with
you guys with pat RONI. He is a part of
the Daily Camera over there in Boulder, Colorado, traveling to
provo for the game by you taking on Colorado tomorrow
quad three game, and to one point, this was a
Quad wan game, I think too. Then it moved to
a Quad two and now to Quad three. Maybe he
can finish as a Quad two by the end of
the season. Colorado gonna have to do some damage. But
right now a Quad three game. Who are the Colorado Buffaloes.
We'll get to know him. We heard from Mark Johnson yesterday,
the voice of the Colorado Buffalo's front of the program.
Love having him on. If you missed that interview, you
can get it on the podcast. But Colorado won in
seven in Quad one games. This is a Quad one
game for them. They're on the road against the Cougars.
Don't think they're gonna win this game. Andrew Peterson and
myself will have more on the Cougar basketball pre game
show My show tomorrow, tuneing at a one pm here
on your Utah ESPN Radio network. But look, they beat
Arizona State ninety five to eighty nine, and then hear
their losses seventy one to seventy three against Texas Tech
seventy seven to sixty nine, against Cincinnati seventy two to
sixty one loss against West Virginia. They lost seventy five
to sixty nine against Kansas at home. The two games
that they lost to West Virginia and Cincinnati both were
on the road. Cincinnati was a nine point loss, West
Virginia was an eleven point loss. Then they lost on
the road against Iowa State. This guy smacked in the
Hilton Tough players to play. They got beat by thirty.
Iowa State's the number nine team in that top team,
Top fifteen team, m KIMP Palm, Top fifth TAM and
then that it's really difficult to beat that team number
eighth in the AP polls, by the way. And then
they lost to Baylor eighty six to sixty four. And
then they lost to Texas, tex So trending doward. Excuse me,
old fashion be down. Tad Boyle called it an old
fashioned a kicking. I might have to find a sound
clip to play it. But look, it's gonna be a
tough matchup. I don't think anybody who covers Colorado or
anybody in Provo thinks to Colorado wins his game. The
question is how does b why you win it? They
could have had an opportunity to win by ten against Baylor.
Richie Saunders shot that three when he shouldn't have. Look,
but at the end of the day, the team was
just happy he got a rut. The last one that
they got was twenty fourth to January against Utah. So
at the end of the day, a win is a win,
but you got you want double digit win tomorrow. You
want it with the Jersey retirement of Jymmer. For that,
you gotta show up and show it. Aj, I think
is forty four points away from passing Danny AND's freshman
scoring record. Look, it's it's gonna get broken. The question
is can he do it to memorrow? And I've been
prone to hyperbole, but there's a chance Aj could break
it tomorrow. Some people are gonna say, no, it's not
running me drop forty three against Utah? Could he? I mean,
if he struggles at free throws he shoots seventy five
percent I think from the charity stripe. If he hits
a couple more free throws, maybe he could. You know,
he could have already broken it or be closer to it.
The point is he has a chance. Now. I don't
think he's going to break it tomorrow, but forty four
points is definitely in the realm for aj D's Bonsas
back to Colorado. They're three and three in Quad two games.
But look, I think this is going to be another
Quad one loss. Thing's going to be one to eight.
But b Yu and the Buffs face off tomorrow in
the Marriott Said the Center, in the house that Gimmer built.
Looking forward to that one Saturday afternoon for you know,
for those of the day who don't know, the game is
going to be broadcast on FS one with Noah Reed
on the call and Matt mullabach On is going to
be your color play by play. Saturday will be the
twenty sixth all the time meeting between the two programs,
and the second since Colorado rejoined the Big Twelve prior
to last season. The Cougars are eight and seventeen all
time against the Buffaloes, with six of those eight wins
coming in provo, including the seventy nine and seventy one
victory in their only previous trip to the Mayoro At Center,
which was back on December ten, twenty sixteen, when Nick
Emery was one of four Cougars to beat in double
figures that night. He finished with twenty two Yoli Child's
finished with eleven points twelve rebounds. That was a double dublin.
Eric Meka chipped in seventeen points, So we should have
reached out to Eric mekuld have him on the show.
Seven rebounds, six assists and three blocks. Eric Mika, he
was a dude. He was a great player and played
at the play at the highest level. That's a good
basketball player right there. There's a lot of Cougar great
names right there. Look at that Nick Emery Joli Childs,
Eric Mika. How do you not like that? Second year
he coach Kevin Young's first ever Big twelve road when
came against Colorado as the Cougars picked up in eighty
three to sixty four victory last season on January twenty first,
twenty twenty five at the CU Event Center. It was
their first winning bowlder since nineteen oh three. Wow. I
don't know how many people who are alive and nineteen
oh three are still here, but man, that was crazy.
That top king Richie Sonders scored a game high twenty
five points as the Cougars outscored Colorado forty five to
thirty one in the second half. Then the then junior
went ten to fifteen from the field, three or six
from the three, two of three from the free throw line.
Trevor Nell and ma what mag who? I think they
both miss combined for twenty five points. Yegor Or Joeman,
now that we know the name, filled the statute up
with eight points, seven assists, four steals in two bucks.
What numbers about you? It's speaking of Yegor. If I
could just give some love, I think it's tonight. I'll
send it on Twitter. Want to make sure that I
didn't miss it. Want to give some love to yegor
Or Joemen at Peacock Rise and Stars Challenge at seven pm.
Yego are gonna be participating nine pm Eastern on Peacock.
Don't miss it A team Vince, Team Vince Card. I
believe Yego are gonna be participating in the Rising Stars Challenge.
Yeg Or Demon is a future I think it's gonna
be a future All Star for this, and that's why
he's participating in the Rise and Start Shutter. Now he
has to keep it up. He has to continue to
improve and put in the work. But if he keeps
up this trajectory, I think he's gonna have an opportunity.
The East is wide open every single year. I know
the Nets are now having the best season. That's how
it goes. When you're the lottery, you are literally the
fourteen worst team, fourteenth worst teams in the league. You're
getting the best picks. And Yegor went to the Brooklyn
Nets and he's loving it. He is loving every single moment.
I just love Yegor as the person. And I want
to play a little sound bite for you guys. We're
gonna get into the nitt gritty first and then we'll
play that sound bite. But Yegor talked about his time
at BYU in the Lifestyle Adjustment and it was a
perfect match. Kevin Young, I felt like was the perfect coach.
BYU is the perfect program. You're gonna continue to see
players like this. You see Yegor, you see aj D's
bonces Agd Buonca. You see these guys, high profile guys
that want to play at the highest level, that want
to win. I mean, Ah's favorite classic crown Allout is
the Book of Mormon. It's been mentioned twice I think
now in the broadcast, maybe three times, but that's what
it is. These guys us want to come to by you.
They want to embody it. They want to do that.
Uh you see what diegor you see with a J
and the basketball team has done the phenomenal job. We'll

All right, Yegor, jentleman, this was Yegor actually join joining
a podcast. I think it's old man to be on.
The three was the podcast that he was on, and
this is him just discussing the lifestyle. Be you and
boy basketball could use Yegor. And he's balling out right.
Like I said earlier in the Rising Stars Challenge for
the NBA All Star Weekend, he had to go. But
when you hear from Yego or how do you not
love him? Let's tune into what he had to say
on this podcast any things.
Speaker 2: Would you have any adjustments with any of the any
of the lifestyle. Nope.
Speaker 6: That's how I leaved all my life basically, and that's
why it was great for me. But that's why I like,
you know, that's why I chose this place too, because
I know that you know, I'm not going to be
weird for not partying.
Speaker 3: I'm not going to be weird, definitely.
Speaker 2: Yeah. So it's more games, Yeah, for sure, it could
not be more opposite.
Speaker 6: So for me, you know, I've been looking for a
different type of fun and these people were that that
all they can do and this that that's kind of
all they want to do, right, So for me, it
was great. I had a lot of friends, and I
mean the older guys twenty six seven years old.
Speaker 3: It's pretty crazy.
Speaker 1: But but but.
Speaker 6: Anyway, but they're like they became my best friends. Like
we you know, we still talk with all of them.
They text me.
Speaker 3: You know, that's it's it's it's fun.
Speaker 6: I mean, it's been really really cool. Being around players
who's kind of already settled in right as a like
development level, but they're still in college.
Speaker 3: So it's you know, I don't think it's unfair.
Speaker 4: What was.
Speaker 3: What was Draft Knight like three things? That's Yegor Joman
old Man in the three discussing the lifestyle the adjustment
when he came to be he said, Nope, that's the
way I lived all my life, and that's why it
was great for me. That's why I chose to bo
you because you know, I'm not gonna be weird for
not partying. And I mean, he was on record, and
I think Legion Hoops was the one that put it out.
Yegor actually had said earlier. I think earlier last year
because it was twenty twenty five when it got put
out that it was a it was, I guess an
adjustment and a struggle Brooklyn because he doesn't party and
you just heard it from there. That's not who he is.
He does He's never been that type of person. And
that's why BYU is perfect for him. There are people
out there like Iegor, like aj that want to come
to BYU, that want to focus on getting better, getting
to the next level. That want to get their education,
and Age has been on record saying that he's working
out with BYU or will work it out where he
can come back and get his degree, which I think
is phenomenal. By the way, I think you see a
multitude of athletes come back Steph Curry, I think graduated.
It's a bunch of guys you know that go back
and get the degree, and you love to see that.
You love to see off you know, the former Cougars
get their degree and still play or when they're done.
That's important. It's always important to have your degree. You
have to have that to get your jersey put into Raptors.
Speaking to Jim or for that, you have to do that.
So I think that's something that's gonna that that aj
will accomplish. I think one day I think he will
be up in you know, the Raptors. I don't think
that's I probably to say. I think b YU if
they make a deep enough run, If he gets by
U to the Elite eight. The last time it happened
was Danny Age. If he breaks these records, if he
gets the Wooden Award, if he's a Newcomer of the
Year for Big twelve, he does all the things that
Cooper Flag is doing. I know Cooper Flag got to
the final four. That might be tough. But if you're
able to do that, then he's right up there with
those conversations. And look, we've never seen that so far.
The one and done's really hasn't been a conversation. But
I believe you do that. But I believe getting your
degrees a part of it. Anyway, I bring up that
point on that tangent to say, my point is that
people want to be a BA and you're not weird
for living that lifestyle. Someone who doesn't want to partake
in adult beverages, there's a place for you in society,
just like there's a place for those that want to
participate and partaking adult beverages and BA use that place
if you don't, if you want to live, you know,
that different lifestyle, and I think it's okay. Look, growing
up in Chicago, you know sometimes you got teased a
little bit for things. And I think the biggest thing
that I that I realized as growing up in the
city was you know, people don't understand and it was
It wasn't until my senior year of high school where
I think it was. I was coming in from I
think it was like April because the seniors are schedule
was different and the last month of the school and
you know, sometimes it's teasing, and I'm not gonna say bullying.
It was teasing. Uh you know it hurt because you
know that's in my culture. They poke fun at you,
and sometimes it did. I was like, man, that's a
little hurtful. But anyway, the point is I was walking in,
grabbed my stuff from my locker on one of my classmates,
Lee Davis, and said, you I Weaver because we went
by curtain names, so mister Weaver is what I went
by in high school, all black boys school, and and
I was like, what you mean? And he's like, the
missionaries actually came over and taught my sister. Now, we're
not gonna get baptized or anything, but we heard the
first you know, we heard the first couple lessons. We
heard the restoration. And I was surprised he was using
these words like it was news to me, the plan
of salvation, the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I was like, WHOA.
I was like, wow, this man, you know, as I
was in preach my gospel and I'm trying to prepare
to go on my machine or my sinner. I'm like,
he's using stuff that I'm studying, like what like he's
pulling out like stuff from He's like, it's funny. People
can't say ne Fhi. They always say Nephie. I find
that funny. But he was saying Nephie and other stuff
and Alma, and I was just I was really impressed
and it kind of warmed my heart, you know, I
kind of got emotional in the moment. My back was
turning to him and he pat me on the back.
It says, you never switched up, you never changed who
you are. You always come in every day from seminary,
witch the scriptures, doing that, you know, and I just
I respect it. I respect what you do and how
it is. And look after that. You know, a lot
of my other friends had interactions with the church who
I went to high school with, and now when I
go back, that's a fun thing to connect on. So
I love this for Yegor. I love this for people
who aren't of the faith that come that are able
to because BYU is the place for a lot of people.
It is and it's not, but it is, and Yegor
has been able to thrive in that. And yeah, BYU
and Utah is not is not Brooklyn, New York, That's
for sure. I went to the Sweet sixteen last year
for BYU and Newark and I took the train over.
It's definitely different being with the friends, went to a
I was in a Mecca for a game. I went
down to the Barclay Center. Definitely different vibe in New York.
It reminds me a little bit of Chicago. But it's
not provo Utah. It's not Capital pro O lawer case,
you know, o vo, as Justin Young would say. But look, Ayegor,
I love that he said this aj Book of Mormon guys,
these things aren't you know, being made up. These are
the real deal. These people actually feel this way. They
want to be at b YU and you're gonna see
more of them. I think you're gonna see more of
the people come and do that. You see Bear Bachmeyer,
Tiger Bachmeyer, Right, We had them on the show last
June in the offseason. They said, Tiger, we are the
most like we are. We are that we are what
b YU embodies and you like to hear that. And
I think there's a strong push right now for those
that aren't members of the of the faith. And I
know I'm bringing up Jake Retziue, but Jake I saw
Jake embraces culture and who he is. And if you
you got to go to the podcast, you know from
the logo with Jimmer and everything's gonna tie back to
Jim or some shape or form like how he talks
about those relationships. And with b Yu Bo you taught
a lot. We have Kline Sataki on you know, to
talk about the signing class and Klania mentioned seeing Keiland
seeing Jacob b au trance, uh forms a lot of people.
It's not transactional, it's truly transformational. And you see people
and they might struggle at first maybe buying in. But
I love seeing this from from Diego in the lifestyle
adjustments and uh look, I truly believe it. I know
people are gonna think I'm on some spiritual you know, tangent,
but I truly believe if you live your life, you know,
you know in that in that moral uh way, that
can bless you. I believe these things are protection, They're
not rules. And I'm not a perfect individual. I'm not
going to go into my list of bad dudes. But
I've been on both sides. I can tell you that,
and I've seen my life of not be blessed from
that standpoint, it has, so I just bring it up
to you. But anyway, that's a little uh yego or
demon action. Back to the b YU basketball game, and
just want to play that, you know, because I think
there are athletes at b y U right where it belongs. Though,
Jimmer for debts jersey is going to be retired during halftime.
I was told by b YU information directors we are
going to get Gimmer in a little mediavailability. So I
have to recap that next Tuesday. Just a reminder for
you guys, there's not going to be a show on Monday,
just so you'll wear a President's Day going to be
taking that day off that is going to be a
federal holiday that will be taken off. Will be back
on Tuesday, February seventeenth. Recap and what I believe will
be a BYU win and breaking it down and getting
you prepare quickly for the University of Arizona because b
what you would take on them the day after on
when is it? But the jersey will be retired during halftime.
He's gonna be the fifth player in program history to
have his jersey raised into the raptor Kreuzmyrchosich, Mel Hutchins
or what is it, Rolin Benson and then Danny Ainge.
You're gonna have a bunch of people in the building.
I've heard from Jonathan Tavnari former players. It's going to
be packed. Dave Rose will be there. So look, if
you don't have your tickets already or you haven't bought it,
I encourage you to do so. Is not that big
where you get an opportunity to see someone have their
jersey retired yet alone, you know, in college basketball, like
to be able to do it, like these things are
once in a lifetime opportunity. That's why Brett Hammer's out
today is you know, he's has obligations helping air and
I just can't even leiave it for Brett to be
ab to be that close up in person to see
that all the things. I think the bookstore had like
a gymmer signing today, I don't know if that's going
on right now. If that was earlier, that Jimmerford that
would sign one piece of a clothing. Look, I mean
jimmer Mania. I mean he took the nation by storm.
He led the Cougars to an appearance to a Sweet sixteen.
They were ranked as highest number three in the AP poll.
The native of Glen Falls, New York, you know, was
named the National Player of the Year by majority of
the outlets. His senior season, he led the nation in
scoring twenty nine points per game. I mean it's almost average,
thirty Like, look, this is no disrespect AJ's averaging twenty
four point five. Now, granted, the athleticism, the competition is different,
but twenty eight point nine, that's absurd. It's absurd. I've
never I've never seen that type. And when you watch
the tape, you see what it is. I wish you
could have had a longer NBA career, and I know
he made a career in China, but man, Jimmer was
a He was a problem man. He was nasty. And
it's going to be an honor to be there tomorrow
in the Marriot to see that that jersey go up. Personally,
for myself, I've never seen a jersey retired ever. And
on television, obviously I saw the Derek Rose one, you know,
the Chicago Bulls, but I've not been in person to one,
That's what I mean. So this is gonna be a
cool experience for me to be able to cover this
and to see this. So I hope that everybody's able
to get out tomorrow to see that.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 3: His one thousand sixty eight points during that season were

Lebron and and.
Speaker 2: You know, just talk about how awesome he was. I
was best scorer in the country.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 2: Uh, it was just a fun time here in Provo.
Speaker 5: As I traveled for a living, no matter what city
I was in, it seemed like Jim Or was the talk.
When I told him I was from Utah, everyone would
start talking Jimmer and he really brought the national media
here into Provo like we've never seen it before.
Speaker 2: And it was exciting.
Speaker 5: It was we couldn't wait for the next game, and
you know, just fun every game to watch him and
see the excitement from the crowd, from the students.
Speaker 1: You know, he was.
Speaker 3: He was as big as it could get. He was
the house that Jimmer built. It truly is the house
that he built the annex. Remember we played a sound
clip of Hey, come speak to these donors. We need
you to come speak to get this approval. He Lily,
is the house and the annex that Jimmer built. So
Jimmer for Debt forever, Kugarnation and BA Athletics in Debt.
Like you said, but that's a good time, but we
got to justus the uh sometimes the somber news and
prova there's an update. Gonna turn it back over the
face the voice of Cougar Sports, Ben Critals, now back
whethers we're now going to discuss Parker Cason. He has
been released.
Speaker 2: Well, guys, Uh, great to be back in the saddle.
Speaker 4: Sor for the delay, but yeah, hey, I guess I guess, uh,
you know, some some good news some bad news coming
out here as we've delved into all the news and
notes coming out of Brigham over the week. Uh, the
latest news and notes on Parker Kingston. Uh, he has
been released, right, so released following arrest of of b
YU receiver Parker Kingston. Uh and uh, you look, you
know I don't have all the updates right now as
I just got into the saddle, but intrigued as to
what is going to happen with all these and I
said it yesterday, I don't think Parker Kingston is gonna
be playing by playing for BYU this year.
Speaker 2: I don't think he's gonna play in college football.
Speaker 4: Uh, there's a this is a this is a heavy,
heavy accusation and those that have brought forth as we
as we talked about yesterday, they feel like the burden
proof's gonna be gonna be solid. The evidentiary threshold has
been met, and they're going after Parker Kingston. So we'll
get into that here momentarily, but let's let's kind of
just kind of break down essentially what we have planned
for the show here on your utah es Ben ready
and and I know you guys are maybe broached a
few of the topics in the nitty gritty, et cetera.
But a couple of things here as it relates to
Parker Kingston, b Way your super parking.
Speaker 2: Parker Kingston's initial hearing.
Speaker 4: In Fifth District Court just ended just about forty minutes ago.
Just outside of forty minutes, Kingston will be released from
the purgatory Washington County Correctional Facility facility today on one
hundred thousand dollars bail. We'll have to wear a GPS
ankle monitor moving forward. So pretty crazy to hear about
this other facts being released right now. Bail was set.
That's not a typo one hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 2: What does that mean?
Speaker 4: They believe that he was a flight risk for whatever reason,
and they felt like the bail was set in a
fair and judicious manner. Kings Kingston has retained Suley City
defense attorney Kratangano, who worked out a deal with the
state's attorney, Ryan J. Sham for Kingston's release on bail
and other stipulation. Kingston will be back in court on
February twenty fifth for another hearing. So that's the latest
here from the emotion to seal a rest warn Deputy
Washington County Attorney hereby moves the above entitled court to
seal the case filed in this manner. By the way,
this motion is based upon the fact that the defendant
is a flight risk. That's the reason why they kept him.
So Tangaro was able to to get him released with
the one hundred thousand dollars bail and other stipulations with
the GPS monitoring system. So it's saddening, it's sombering. We
try to keep it light. We try to talk football
on this show. One of the things that we delved
into yesterday is the impact of not having Parker Kingston
on the football field.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know it's football, but that's why.
Speaker 4: You come to talk about football here on your Utah
ESPN Radio Network, Parker Kingston not being on the football field,
and you look at the acquisitions that BYU went out
and got and what you currently have in that wide
receiver room, it begs the question, do you have a
wide receiver one? Parker Kingston was supposed to be that
guy if you didn't go out and get a wide
receiver one. And I don't know if it's Kyler Casper.
He is fast, he is big, he is strong, he
was a four star. He could very well surprise all
of us. He's only had seven receptions in his collegiate
career and he's played specially teams. It's not like he's
got this massive resume of productivity at the collegiate level.
You may ride with that guy Reggie Frishcnnett, maybe he's
a dude, maybe he can be wide receiver one, but
you really don't have any proven guys that are outside
of Parker.
Speaker 2: So it's a huge.
Speaker 4: Loss on the football field. Is it comparative just from
a football standpoint? Is it comparative to losing Keelan Marion
last year going into twenty twenty five? I would say
so you look at what Keelan produced at Byu his
junior season. He had a nice junior season. And we
heard so much about Keelan coming out of springball. He
was looking very good, different, built, different. But in twenty
twenty four, Keelan only had three hundred and forty six
yards fourteen point four yards per reception and only one touchdown.
I mean that's good, that's solid. And he was a
great kick returner. Remember he rushed for twenty one times
ninety six yards, two touchdowns.
Speaker 2: They're solid, not too shabby.
Speaker 4: Right, that's pretty good as a returner though, Yeah, he
housed a couple of a couple of returns. Right, he
had eighteen returns four hundred and seventy two yards and
two touchdowns. When you look at Parker Kingston and those
are respectable stats and he could have taken it to
the next level.
Speaker 2: Look what Parker put up this year.
Speaker 4: Much of Keelan's absence contributed to maybe Parker's productivity. Parker
Kingston last year had sixty six receptions, nine hundred and
twenty four yards and five touchdowns fourteen yards per reception.
Speaker 2: That's good.
Speaker 4: And then run twenty six times for an addition one
hundred and twenty three yards and had three rushing touchdowns,
so he eclipsed the touchdown total by four. He eclipses
the yardage total by six hundred, and he eclipsed the
rushing touchdowns as well by two.
Speaker 2: Furthermore, as a returner.
Speaker 4: He had an additional two hundred and thirty yards as
a part returner and one touchdown. So the void that
must be filled by somebody else on this roster is
much bigger. Okay, it is much bigger comparatively speaking to
the void that Parker ended up filling in kielan Marion's absence,
and Keileen went out and did some great things in Miami.
Obviously we missed him, and he probably would have done
great things at BYU this last season, There's no doubt
about it. He had fifty seven receptions, seven hundred and
forty six yards thirteen point one yards per reception, and
two touchdowns. He also ran the all four times twenty
five yards six point three yards per carry, and then
had twelve returns to two hundred ninety three yards. A
very good season at Miami, and he went to the
National Championship Game. Congratulation Keel, and we wish him well,
But that void that must be filled in twenty twenty
six is much bigger. I don't know if we got
a guy. At least when Keelan left, you had Parker.
You had Parker there waiting for the opportunity to become
that guy. Remember in twenty twenty four, Parker, you know
he was. He was a contributor at thirteen receptions one
hundred ninety six yards. He had a receiving touchdowns fifteen
point one yards per reception. He also ran the ball
a few times in two thousand, twenty twenty four to
six six carries forty three yards seven point two yards
per carry. And he was also returning seventeen times as
a part returner, two under thirty six yards and two touchdowns.
So you looked at at Parker as a possible replacement
for Keeling but you may have not been convinced.
Speaker 2: Well, what did he do?
Speaker 4: He came out and he showed out. Parker had a
tremendous season.
Speaker 2: He was awesome.
Speaker 4: The Mighty have fallen from their perch right. He had
everything going his way. He made a horrible decision and
he's gonna have to He's gonna have to pay the penance.
Speaker 2: Ultimately, made a bad decision.
Speaker 4: Now guilty. He's innocent until proven guilty, so that will
let the courts play themselves out. But the accusations very serious,
and as I mentioned, the evidence okay that the investigators
and the prosecutors think they have is strong. They think
they have a very very good case, and that's why
they have operated in such an aggressive manner. They waited
a year essentially to aggregate as much evidence as possible, interviews,
et cetera. Parker Kingston has claimed it was all consensual
with the twenty year old young lady in Washington County
and Saint George with the initials am per the report.
Speaker 2: That Handy and Handy was able to give us yesterday.
But just from a football standpoint, it's hurts. It hurts.
Speaker 4: Who's the most likely on this BYU football roster to step.
Speaker 2: Up and be like Keelan, be like Parker, That is
the question.
Speaker 4: I don't think it is Kyler Casper. I don't think
he's the same type of player. Remember, you know, there's
outside receivers, there's inside receivers, and Keelan he could do both. Parker,
he could do both. He played mostly slot. Though played
mostly slot.
Speaker 2: I want to believe.
Speaker 4: In the depths of my soul that Cody Hagen could
be that guy, you know, but he's gotta get He's
got to get a little thicker, He's got to get
a little stronger. He's got to be a little bit
more gritty. He was a returner too. He was the
replacement as the kickoff returner, the primary kickoff returner for Keeling,
and he had some solid returns. There's no doubt about it.
But UH need to see more from him. He's a
young pup, Okay, he could he could step into that role.
And remember he's a four star kid. Cody Hagen, I
think has a great opportunity right now.
Speaker 2: Cody Hagen has.
Speaker 4: All of the I think reps in in springball to
showcase that he can be that guy that he can
step in and be that dude, be an.
Speaker 2: Inside outside wide receiver. He can.
Speaker 4: He's looked good in the in in some of those jets,
some of the end rounds, some of the reverses as well.
Speaker 2: Maybe just maybe it's Cody's job.
Speaker 4: If Tiger Bachmeyer could get a little bit faster, and
I know that's that's hard to do. Some of its
genetic potential, some of it's you know, neuromuscularly driven. I
think you can put on some more lean muscle masks,
get that posterior chain to be a little bit more elastic.
Speaker 2: Maybe possibly Tiger back markets step up.
Speaker 4: Remember Tiger was a pretty good punt returner at Stanford,
right like he was pretty good, He was solid. He's
supposed to be one of the top wide receivers at
Stanford last year. Came in and was more of a
role player for BYU this year. But he did see
some pt He did see some time. He got opportunities.
He got opportunities early and he got opportunities late. They
obviously like him, and he's a little bit thicker, little
bit more developed, little bit more experienced.
Speaker 2: He's going into his senior year and that's who the
quarterback is. His brother.
Speaker 4: You may want to bet on Tiger Bachmeyer. With the
skill set that guys like Skyler made and Kolbe Klaussen
and Ryan Phillis had, maybe they can extract the speed
potential of Tiger Bachmeyer because he can break arm tackles
a la keeln and Parker. Like Parker, although small in stature,
he was actually he got a little bit thicker and
he could fight through contact pretty gosh, staying well, especially
last season, looked significantly improved in that particular realm. But
you know, I don't know if there is a favorite.
I don't know if there is a guy that can
step in and be what Parker was. Quite honestly, there's
potential and Tiger, there's potential in Cody, But who really
fits that mold.
Speaker 2: You look at the skill set of Kieling, you look
at skill.
Speaker 4: Set of Parker and their productivity over the last two
years at their respective schools.
Speaker 2: Is there a guy? Is there a dude that can
show up? Show out?
Speaker 4: Let's take a brief time out, ladies and gentlemen, boys
and girls. Uh, they got the latest updates with Parker.
Speaker 7: Kington For the college football teams you care about, wins, losses,
and everything in between. We talk it through on one

by RUBISN. Rubies In dot com. I love rubies In.

staying at Rubies In, especially when you click on the
hot Deal's button and get up to thirty three percent

our Great Republic, and or they're from the outside of
the states. So guys, let's make some memories with friends
and family members and really enjoy the beauty of the
earth at Bryce Canyon National Park.
Speaker 2: Check this out. Elder Clark G.
Speaker 4: Gilbert the newest member of the Korum of the Twelve
Apostles of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints.
He was called on Wednesday, February eleven, twenty twenty six,
and ortained on Thursday, February twelfth by President Dallan H.
Oaks and the other members of the First Presidency and
the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles.
Speaker 2: Elder Gilbert is fifty five years old.
Speaker 4: He was born in Oakland, California, and spent most of
his childhood in Phoenix, Arizone.
Speaker 2: Shout out to AZ Baby.
Speaker 4: He was and has served as a General Authority seventy
since April twenty twenty one, and as the Commissioner of
the Church Educational System since August of that year. Elder
Gilbert states, this is an amazing time to point people
to the Savior Jesus Christ, Elder Gilbert said on Thursday.
When we do that, we can find joy and comfort
and peace in him. As President Russell M. Nelson once said,
it's much harder to find happiness where it doesn't exist.
And we're so grateful, and we're so grateful that I
have this calling now to witness that Jesus is the Christ.
If people all across the world will look to him,
he will make their lives better, more meaningfully, more meaningful,
more joyful. And it happens in and through our Savior
Jesus Christ. You can learn more at Church Newsroom the
Church of Jesus Christ dot Org in that press release.
So number one, congratulations to I don't know it's that's
the proper thing to say. Congratulations will becoming a member
of the corner Like hey, awesome, Like great, I don't
know what the the you know what type of salutation
I should give him when I see Elder Clark gigo
and I'm like, look like I never want to be
a twelve apostle that it seems pretty heavy, But you know,
I'm proud that you are worthy and capable and are
gonna do a great job. You've been called by divine inspiration.
Now let me turn into sport. He's been overseeing the
church educational system. I've bet a good authority, and you
have plenty of examples, tangible examples of him being invested
in BYU Athletics. In the mission of BA Athletics, I've
always said, right, you need to have continuity. You need
to have alignment between the mission of the Church Jesus
Christ aleted to stay. It's the mission of Brigham Young
University in the mission of the athletics. Now, as in
all organizations and amongst all people and all of the
children of men, you fall.
Speaker 2: Short of the standards that have been said.
Speaker 4: And we're seeing that play itself out probably too often, especially.
Speaker 2: With the student athletes.
Speaker 4: And we got to raise the bar We need to
be better and there needs to be more accountability, and
there needs to be in my opinion, daily there may
be daily recitation of the Hoter code in the in
the athletic building going forward. Okay, hey, I'm All'm up
for it. I'm telling you, I'm I would call for it.
So but I do believe that Elder Clark Gilbert, i''ll
give you an exam. I mean, he hopped onto the
Wise Guys podcast with Dave McCann and UH and Blaine
Fowler h this was just last year, went into depth
on his vision of BU athletics, the role that it plays.
Speaker 2: Man like, he's not the end all be.
Speaker 4: All in in in what at athletics is and what
it's supposed to be and the mission of BA athletics
within the institution of Brigham Young University. And and I'm
not saying he was the end allbel but he was
a voice of authority and said some things that for
some were maybe controversial because he he does take a
vested interest in the student athletes and the mission of
BYU athletics.
Speaker 2: So I actually think this is a really good thing
for BA athletics.
Speaker 4: The more of the korm that believes that BO athletics
can be a ambassadorial tool for good even when it
has so much you know, there's weaknesses within the players,
the coaches, the administrators that that run the operation of athletics.
If they see a significant positive effect, I always say,
if the good fruits significantly out weigh the bad fruits,
that's all you need to know.
Speaker 2: By the fruits, you will know them. Right. Does one
bad apple make a tree you know poisonous? Does one
bad apple make you think, you know what?
Speaker 4: We got to chop down the rest of this tree,
Gotta get rid of it. No, The same goes for
b YU athletics. Just because a player, a coach, an administrator,
someone falls short of the standard that's been said, doesn't
mean you just chop it all down. And as many
Utah fans want, as many anti Mormons want, they want
BA athletics to crumble. They want it to go away
because see, I told you you fell short of your standard.
See I told you guys are bad people. See I
told you these are horrible kids. See I told you.
You know, you give the LDS Church a bad name.
They don't really care that it gives the LDS Church
or BA you a bad name.
Speaker 2: They want to see much of it go down to Chinatown.
They want to see it crumbled, they want to see
it fail.
Speaker 5: Uh.
Speaker 4: They they're the individuals that mock those that fall short, okay,
And that's where they get their validation. It's the the
the individuals that that have their own internal issues within
themselves that are constantly mocking and pointing fingers and saying
that they they just disintegrate the institution and disintegrate BYU athletics.
Speaker 2: That being said, I do think.
Speaker 4: It's a good thing to have Elder Gilbert as one
of the member members of the Corner of the Twelve Apostles.
And I think he'll make a positive impact, uh in
his council with his councilmen on what BA Athletics is
supposed to be and what his uh you know, it's
not his vision necessarily of what BO athletics is supposed
to be now right, but you know it'll be in
a collaboration. What do the board of trustees, what do
the brethren? How do they see be athletics? And I
would say over the last two years, And Ronald, you
can chime in on this because you've been down there
boots on the ground. How many general authorities? How many
of the korm have we seen at basketball games? At
football games? You can count on both your hands, maybe
you know, both of our hands combined, how often we're
seeing general authorities show up to the games. They're taking
a vested interest in administering and utilizing BOO athletics as
an ambassadorial tool for good. And I think it's going
to continue with Elder Gilbert being called to as one
of the members of the Korm of the twelve Apostles.
Speaker 3: You know, all right? I mean, how many times have
I posted Elder Bednar or President Christopherson at the basketball
game on Twitter? How many times have I done that?
Speaker 5: Now?
Speaker 3: I can account at least three and probably a fourth tomorrow,
you know, and probably maybe you know, two more times
after that. They all are bought into this and they
all go and it's crazy to see.
Speaker 2: Ben.
Speaker 3: I mean, look, I can't remember what what football game
it was. I don't know if it was. It might
have been West Virginia, but Elder uh no, it was
not that it was a TCU in the u c
f U CF was Elder Gong, but I think it
might have been tc with Elder Hollin's getting wheelchair across
like I'm like walking. I'm like, wait a second, this
is I know these I know those those pins as
a church pin. Stop. See one of them. One of
them recognized me from name days and he taps to me.
What's up. Rono's like, oh, here come to big dog.
Elder Holland wheeled right through like they all are brought in.
They all are there, Ben. So yeah, this is great,
a great calling. I think this does help. This does
bridge the gap right for BA athletics as someone who
doesn't now that there's gonna be someone new over, you know,
the church education program. But this helps off a voice
in the room. And it's all about experience. It's all
about people that have perspective, and Elder Clark Gilbert's perspective
that he's had over the years he now can attribute
to that room. Not surprised by this. I had all been.
Speaker 2: Magic number of the day, twelve, that's the stat of
the day.
Speaker 4: Elder Gilbert is gonna be one of the members of
the twelve, the corner of the twelve Apostles. He's been
overseeing the church educational system and my purview and my
reports that I've ever seen. He's a massive BYU athletics
fan and he wants to see it continue to be
a prominent fixture as an ambassadored oiel tool for the
church that you justus Christ of Latter day Saints and
the Faith. And I can't wait to see what he
can do in his new role in his new calling.
Let's go to break, please don't go anywhere more to
get to on a beautiful Friday, February thirteenth edition of
Cougar Sports. If you don't know, Parker Kingston has been
released on bail. One hundred thousand dollars is what the
bail was said at. He's gonna have a GPS monitor
on his ankle. That was one of the I guess
the stipulations of his release. They fear that he is
a flight risk the prosecution, and so he has been
released from Washington County Jail and the process of his
defense will begin in the days.
Speaker 2: The weeks and months to come. Let's go to break,
don't go anywhere.
Speaker 4: We're talking more Cougar football and basketball coming up next,
We'll get into a little Game day men's health commentary
as well.
Speaker 2: Get back
