BAA football culture right now, not the BYU basketball culture.
Though unfortunately Hoog's lost to Texas was not the game
that everybody wanted. It did bust my bracket I had
BYU going to the Sweet sixteen beating gonzag I thought

Speaker 3: How we doing today?
Speaker 4: Not too bad.
Speaker 5: I'm not quite ready for spring sports, but I guess
I gotta start getting into them, don't I.
Speaker 3: You do?
Speaker 2: And I know about this right because we It's crazy
that I've been doing this for five years but I've
known you guys doing this particular portion of setting things
up for about three Now I know how May gets
for you.
Speaker 3: I don't think I see you. I don't think I
see you at all during the month of May.
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's there's about a billion the high high school
games going on because they added boys and girls across
recently in boys volleyball. So the spring is just just
a mess with with tons of games. It's fun to
try to cover everything. But and I really I like
volleyball life. That there's volleyball in the spring, that's great.
But I wasn't ready for the basketball season end quite yet.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, well when did you When did you get back?
Speaker 3: When did you get back? Double d? I got back yesterday.
Did you get back the day after the game Saturday?
When did you fly home?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 5: I hung around for a while in Portland, Common Oregonian,
so you know, I kind of appreciate all the stuff
going on there. And plus I had a deal with
my hotel that if I had left, they would have
charged me more.
Speaker 4: So you know, I'm cheap. Oh, so I decided to
stay and went from there. That's just how I am.
This says how I roll.
Speaker 2: Hey, look, look, I'm out of cheapo either of the
same thing. Remember last year, and I don't know if
we've told people this story, but byu Is in the
Sweet sixteen thought they would get Alabama. They didn't, and
we hung around, darn know, and uh in Newark, we stayed.
Speaker 3: In there and we did we did.
Speaker 2: We did not because we didn't want to be cheap
os lose money on the Airbnb paid more money on
our flight, so we're like, you know, we'll fly back.
Speaker 5: Here, catch another couple of games, went some movie, you
know that kind of stuff.
Speaker 2: One hundred percent definitely did that. And look, I don't
know if I ever got your thoughts. What was it
like for you to see Cooper flag in person? Obviously
we watched AJ this whole year, but let's throw that
discussion in the mix, because that was a discussion last year.
But now that AJ has played the entire season, we
know Duke's roster was way different than BYU's. Would you
have taken would you have taken Cooper flag number one
or would you take AJ?
Speaker 3: Now having seen both of them play in person?
Speaker 5: Well, to be honest, watching Cooper Flag play last year
in the Elite eight against Alabama. I was like, yeah,
he's a good player, He's fine. I mean, I didn't
think he had a great game. I think, as I recall,
he shot less than fifty percent from the field, Duke
still won because they have a time talent.
Speaker 4: Yeah. See what he's doing in the NBA now, though,
it's just like crazy because you could see it.
Speaker 5: You can see it coming, because if you followed his
high school career a little bit and saw what he
was doing at the AAU level, he was dominating everybody
and so not too surprising. But it's kind of interesting.
You could draw a parallel here between you know, one
specific point in time as compared to taking the long view.
If you're looking at BYU basketball, you're like, man, twenty
twenty five, twenty six.
Speaker 4: Was a complete disaster. Well not necessarily.
Speaker 5: I mean, certainly they were expected to be better than
a first round excit, but they weren't. But I think
the future still looks pretty good for this program. I
think they still have a lot of good things in
place in terms of how much they can invest in
anil and the kind of players they can bring in,
and not every year you're gonna have five season ending
injuries and So I think if you take the long
you know, if you take the short of you and say, wow,
they look look terrible against Texas, well, they kind of
did for most of the game. Or if you take
a look at the view of you know, twenty three
and twelve is not exactly what you were expecting out
of this team. But if you look at the long
view and say, you know, you've seen all the things
that are building up, the kind of momentum that AJA
helped build up, that you would still feel pretty positive
about what BYU has in store for the basketball program.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you brought up obviously the resource allocations, things like that.
Before you get into a little bit more of that discussion.
What grade do you give this BYU season? It's tough,
and you can go numbers too, you can go want
to go one out of ten, I mean, not give
a letter grade if that's easier for it, whichever one.
But it's it's tough because I've never seen five season
ending injuries. And you saw last night the team that
lost Alabama speaking of them, they got BYU last year
spank Texas Tech because they didn't have their best player.
So obviously not having your best player, having depth plays
a factor. And you see that with other schools. You
see Arizona have depth, them go toe to toe. You
see Iowa State even though Joshua Jefferson did go down.
But if you don't have your best player double D
in depth, you don't win. So how do you grade
the season with that? And even the players that they
did pay to come here and play that it didn't
work out.
Speaker 4: Well.
Speaker 5: Here's what I would say, and again, taking more of
a long view of things, I'd give them a bee
because I've covered this team for a number of years
when they were in the Mount West Conference and in
the West Coast Conference where they were pretty much irrelevant
the whole season in terms of a national presence just
wasn't there like.
Speaker 4: Gonzaga was there.
Speaker 5: Occasionally Byu'd win a decent game, but when it came
down to it from the West Coast Conference specifically, they
had to basically win the West Coast Conference tournament to
get in.
Speaker 4: Most years, Yeah, it just hadn't built.
Speaker 5: That kind of resume to where even finishing as a
runner up they would get in.
Speaker 4: I saw that several times, So excuse me.
Speaker 5: I would say that that the fact that BYU was
in the next national prominence, especially in the non conference
schedule when they were playing at Massius Square Garden against
Yukon and all those games they played in the.
Speaker 4: Conference season as well, big games against Houston and Arizona
and Texas Tech.
Speaker 5: I still feel like it was a successful season because
they're putting things in place to be at national contender
every year. It'd be great if they could do that,
and they're trying to do that. And certainly the injuries
derailed a lot of the depth and the shooting because
those were wolf really big problems with this team late
in the season. But I would still give them a
good grade because they're making progress. This is so much
better than having to sit through them playing San Diego
and Pacific in Portland and just teams that are so
irrelevant that if you lose to them, it's a shock
you should beat them. They aren't in that situation now.
They're playing against teams that they have to come out
and play every single night, and we saw them come
out and have some really good wins. They did some
good things this year in conference play. They played Airs
on a tough couple of times. They beat Iowa State
at home, they beat Texas Tech at home, So I
would still give them a good, solid B for this season.
Speaker 4: The expectations are what they were.
Speaker 5: You know, most BYU fans and the national media expected
them to be a contender and at least be a
Sweet sixteen team, if not most people even talking about
Final four. And if they were fully healthy, who knows
what they might have done. I mean, you can just
take a look at the team that b Way you
lost to in the first round of the tournament. How
did Sean Miller lose fourteen games with Texas?
Speaker 3: I don't know, it's disappointed at they have no idea.
Speaker 5: How do you take a team with a seventh floorder
that's as good as that dude, with the kind of shooters,
the kind of athleticism, and how do you lose fourteen games?
I just the fact that they can turn it on
in the tournament is pretty amazing to me that it
happens that way and they're.
Speaker 4: In this Sweek sixteen.
Speaker 5: But anyway, so as far as Bway, he's concerned, Yeah, disappointing.
Speaker 4: They didn't finish.
Speaker 5: Out what we thought they were capable of. But I
still feel pretty positive about where this program's getting.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you have to be I think a lot of
fans because of AJ and the talent and San Diego
got top ten national championship now and maybe even you
know the national media, and I get why, right, But
that's what I said the lead eight. I just think
it's so hard to get to a final four. I
just think it is. I mean, you're seeing Rick Patino,
tom Izzo, Curley, all of these older older coaches still
get there right in the sweet sixteen. It's just it's tough.
It's nothing against Kevin Young, it's nothing against the staff.
They've done it. They've exceeded all expectations in my opinion,
with what has been placed upon them and with how
people view things. But I just think as a whole,
it's like, you got guys that have been doing this
for years, double D years, Like Curley's been the head
coach of Ukon for eight years, got two titles. I
just I don't know, man, Like it's it's gonna take
time before BUYU is able to get to that point.
But I think they're on their way because what was
the last time. I wait, then, that's never happened. Double
D three five stars have committed to the program, and
I believe Bruce branch will sign. He hasn't signed yet
from what I've seen, but three five stars in the
last three years.
Speaker 3: You have to look at that.
Speaker 2: Then you had the number one Juco, number one euro
player and then the number one high school player.
Speaker 3: That's progress in my opinion.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think they're doing a good job.
Speaker 5: And you know, it was interesting listening to Kevin Young
after the loss and he was talking about how watching
game video was painful at times as he kind of
watching this team kind of you know, I mean, And
he also said some things during the season. He said
it several times that they were had to dumb down
the defense, and I don't know if that's an indictment
of the coaching scheme or if that's an indictment of
the players they recruited. They have to say dumb down
so much. I mean, it's they just didn't get defensively
what they were and you do. Until they started to
just make it very simple and just switch everything or
just keep a guy in front of you, don't worry
about the peel switch or whatever.
Speaker 4: They were not having to worry about.
Speaker 5: This coaching staff had a real challenge this year as
they took guys who probably wouldn't have played a lot
and started to have to play them, you know, they
had to play.
Speaker 4: I don't think Alexi coachters was ready.
Speaker 5: He showed several times that he has the ability to
shoot the ball my question, but the other parts of
his game took a while to get going. And Den
boops the same way. I mean, that guy's still so
young in his basketball development. So I think this coaching
staff has a real challenge, as all coaching staffs do,
in building a roster and building it in a way
that makes it successful. You know, I look at Nebraska's roster.
Nebraska's in this week sixteen, it's a team by you
played excuse me in the preseason and lost by one point.
That roster makeup. They brought in some guys from different schools,
but they also have six guys from Nebraska, and the
roster they have several guys from surrounding states like Iowa
and Minnesota, just small town guys they really want to
win and are fundamentally sound, and they mixed it in
with a couple of guys who are really talented, and
they're in the sweet sixteen. I don't think that BYU
coaches did a fantastic job of building this roster. I
think there's some parts of it that just weren't clicking together.
And maybe you don't know that until you bring them together.
Sometimes I don't know, but you look at last year's
BYU team. That team probably wasn't as talented overall as
this year's team, but they played well together, like the
pieces fit together better. And that's the real challenge when
you have transfer portal and you have the nil going on,
You've got to find a way to put together a
roster that works together. Not just the fifty most talented guys.
You can find the guys that fit roles. And that's
the big challenge for every college staff out there because
they try to build.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you gotta find rolls and obviously you bring up,
you know, some of these guys and it's tough, right
double B because I feel like down the stretch of
the season, you saw a lot of good things from
ALEXI coachch Kevin Jung says that he held Canard Davis
Junior out. I thought Canard should have had the ball
in his hand more at the start of the season
when you saw his taper set. They're not gonna have
him facilitating. I understood why he had Dawson Baker and
they pickens. But I'm like, I feel like with Canard
on the floor, that could take some pressure off. And
you know that's not what they anticipated. But you have
to wonder with what Canard it look. Look, I'm just
gonna say it. I know no one wants to say it.
I'll be the bad guy. I don't mind being bad,
cop right. I had to tell me a little girl
when she saw me she didn't want me leaving for
work as she was pulling my leg and not wanting
to go to mom. I don't mind being bad back, Coop.
This roster's gonna look completely different next year.
Speaker 3: It just will.
Speaker 2: It's going to it has to, I think because Kevin
said the shooting around Rob Right hinting at Rob Right
coming back. Now we were told that by him that
he's either it's BYU or pro.
Speaker 3: There's no one between. So we will see.
Speaker 2: But if that's the case of double D, I'm looking
at this roster of guys that could come back and
I don't know what I'm being honest, just off the
top of my brain, thinking very fast, I think, Boop,
because you've seen the development even though it took a year,
but you saw what he was able to do. I
look at Canard, how he had to step up down
the stretch, and I look at Alexi.
Speaker 3: I'm like, are those the only.
Speaker 2: Guys besides obviously Dawson and Nate who want to come
back in KG? You said it for the retchit I'm
not talking about them. Tell my guys that played could
those are those the only three guys that are a
lot because everybody else pretty much up. Dominique Diomande posted
something as well. It sounds like, you know, he could
maybe be staying. How's this roster gonna look at your
double D because they need shooting.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's really hard to say.
Speaker 5: And the thing that Kevin Young mentioned was you know
these guys have options as well. It's not nice thing
is Kevin Young says, either you stay here go Some
of these guys may say, you know what, I want
to play, but I want to play for you know,
a Division two school, or I want to go someplace
where I can play thirty minutes a game, or you know,
maybe maybe someone else has an offer to go play
at a school near their home and they'd rather play
in front of family and friends. Yeah, all these guys
are gonna have options, and there's gonna be discussions for
sure between the coaching staff and these players, and they'll
decide what the best situation is. And Kevin Young already
has talked about hitting the transfer portal and and it's
kind of crazy, but you got to do it. And
it's just, you know, put your nose to the grindstone
and find out what you need and see what you
can find.
Speaker 4: I think they're gonna hit.
Speaker 5: That portal, excuse me, and then they're going to have
guys that are just going to be like, you know,
I just think my opportunity is like better elsewhere. Yeah,
you look at someone like Brodiy Kaslowski. I'd love for
him to stay. I think he's really talented, but he's
missed two seasons due to injury. Yeah does he does?
He want to change the scenery just so he can
kind of feel like he's not the same place where
he's been heard twice, you know. So there's there's lots
of changes I think in store. And as I go
through the teams that b YU plays every year, I
kind of take a look at the roster and see who.
Speaker 4: Left and who's come back.
Speaker 5: I still marvel at teams that put together, you know,
twelve thirteen, fourteen new guys on our roster every year.
Speaker 4: I just think that's so hard to sustain any.
Speaker 5: Sort of functionality with that when you're having to basically
reboot your roster every year. So I'm hoping that there's
less movement than more because there are some young players
that I think could be developed and should stay, but
there's other players that maybe it's time for them to
find another opportunity and maybe they want to. So that's
all going to be determined in the next few months,
and it's a huge job for the coaching staff, but
there's definitely changes that are going to be taking place,
no question.
Speaker 2: Luck where we give constructive criticism and or objective here
at ESP and the fan and on Cougar Sports, and
some may like it some and I don't care. That's
what our job is. That's all we're paid to do.
The b too experiment yay or nay? Will he be
on this roster next year?
Speaker 5: So here's here's the thing about about Ahmed is he's
a really young player. I mean, I know he played
two years in the G League, but that's not like
the same as old experience at all he has. He
has a skill for blocking shots. He's not great defensively,
he tends to get in foul trouble. He sets a
lot of the legal screens this year he did and
and he's also not much of an offensive threat.
Speaker 4: So if you're counting on him to step.
Speaker 5: Up and play a role such as what what kPa
Kitty did, I don't think that's reasonable to expect if
you want to keep him in your program and develop
him as a tour of three as a backup. Sure,
he's young, he can get better. I think that's that's
a possibility. But I do think one area of real
concern going into next year is finding some size and
not I mean, Keba's great at six', eight but you
got to get some six, ten six eleven seven foot
guys to come in here and make a difference on the.
Court and they didn't have that this, year And keba
got hurt and he was not the same. Player there
were there were times this last year and early in
this season where after a, Game i'm, like the most
influential player in that, game the guy Impacted, again most
of Was kaba on both ends of the floor as a,
defender as a, rebounder a shop, blocker as a, dunker
and we just didn't see. That late in the season
he shared occasionally where he could do, that but the
consistency was no longer there and he's. Gone so now
they have to come up with an idea how do
we fortify our? Interior is Is bulow a? Piece he could,
be but he's not going to be the guy that's
stepping in as a. STARTER i don't think he's just
not that ready.
Speaker 4: Yet so if you ask me your, NAY i say.
Speaker 5: Yay but being realistic about what he can possibly do
in this program if he continues to, grow and then
the fact that be where you need to go out
and get some.
Speaker 2: Size, yeah you're not, Wrong, ba he definitely needs to
go out and get some.
Speaker 3: Size So i'll ask you this.
Speaker 2: QUESTION i know we got to get you out of here,
soon But, fos if he had another, year definitely could
have helped this. Team i'm looking at back to the,
basket big or big that stretches the.
Speaker 3: FLOOR i, Said Dallen.
Speaker 2: HALL i know that we've talked off, record you, know
in our little group chats about D hall could have
helped this team And i'm actually as sending all takes On.
Dallin i'm sorry THAT i made that, take you, know
and at the moment we didn't, know and that's why
the end of the, season you. Wait But i'm looking
at it down the stretch Of texas With Volca titus
and the words Of Charles, barkley theis The titus because
he couldn't say his.
Speaker 3: Name still Love Charles.
Speaker 2: Barkley fus And Ali khalifa over the last couple of,
Seasons i'm, like, man those guys could have Helped ali
with his passion ability excuse, Me and they were stretching
the floor shooting the, three and Then fus was a
back to the basket.
Speaker 3: BIG i feel like you can go to your.
Speaker 2: Point Because Ali kalif was six ten six eleven And
fus was dominant. Paint they're missing that type of. Player
that's WHAT i, think what you're.
Speaker 5: Describing, yeah and the thing About fos specifically and even.
Speaker 4: Who girls we were just talking About.
Speaker 5: Khalifa, yeah they provide a very different look for the
defense when they come on the, floor like when WHEN
byu even last, year there were a bunch of guys
running around shooting the, ball shooting, threes you, know spreading the,
floor and all of a, sudden you bring In fus
and he's a back to the basket automatic score once
he gets.
Speaker 4: You on his. BACK i, mean the dude's really really.
Speaker 5: Good or Or, khalifa who is a high post wizard
as a. Passer when you give a defense a different,
look that causes them. Issues And Dawson baker would have
been a similar type player in terms of when he
comes into the, game all of a, sudden you got
to defend differently because of how he attacks the, rim
how he shoots. Threes and they didn't have, that so
they didn't have a lot of variety with their. Offense
they had Basically aj with the ball and all four
other guys stand around watching. Him AND i even looked
this UP byu averaged thirteen point three assists per.
Speaker 4: Game that's their lowest total in twenty one.
Speaker 3: Years, WOW i didn't know that.
Speaker 5: Twenty one years that they've averaged much better than. That
but that was because the kind of offense they ran
was put Bong age's, hand let him, work and that
kind of what they especially late this, season they had
that kind of depend on that BUT i think the
more variety you can put in your, offense the better
off you're going to be because the defense has to
make adjustments and you take advantage of areas where you're.
Strong there were some games Where loose was not as,
effective but there are other games where definitely he was
the guy that changed the game around because he came
in and all of a, sudden your low post guy
is going to the heart of the, basket freeing up other.
Guys so that's something that when they go out and
look in the. Portal are they looking for a stretch for?
It you, know a six to eleven guy that shoot?
Threes are They there's lots of different kinds of guys
that you can. Get Isaac davis AT uvu was once
A BYU's. Gradar he had committed to, them and he's
a back to the basketball post. Guy maybe they go
after someone like. THAT i don't, know BUT i think,
that LIKE i, said the more variety you get into your,
offense the harder it is whether teams to defend. You
and this YEAR i THINK byu was way too easy to,
defend especially at crunch.
Speaker 2: Time, YEAH i, agree you bring up all good valid,
Points so let's finish with. This gotta gotta get you
out of. Here on a football, NOTE i know you
just got, back BUT i know you were still dialed
in paying. Attention you've probably seen the numbers for everything
that you're saying that you heard that you're right online
who that could participate in THE Bau Football Pro day
as the best opportunity maybe to get their name called
during THE Nfl.
Speaker 3: Draft there's a bunch of.
Speaker 2: Guys people like What Mary bamba, did people Like Whatna
wall was able to put. Up but what are You
Chase roberts improved that forty times. Tremendously what say you DOUBLE? D?
Speaker 5: YEAH i think there's there's plenty of guys that have
that opportunity to to.
Speaker 4: Get a.
Speaker 5: Chance and that's all you need is a. Chance you
need to get in the right. Situation you need to
you need to find a coach who believes in you
right and AND i think that there's plenty of. Guys you,
Know Jack, KELLY i think teams are gonna love him
as a as a. LINEBACKER i think he's got a
really good chance of making some headway and getting in
a good. Opportunity And Tanner wall is one of those
guys that you're gonna put in camp and you're going
to realize he's making every plays in the right spot every.
Time and those kind of guys catch the attention of
the position coaches and then they fight for him with
the head. Coach when they start looking at you, know
who do we?
Speaker 4: Keep who do we? Cut they're like That Tanner wall.
Dude you watch his. Film every single time he's in
the right he's making, plays he knows where to be
and and he's and he's more athletic.
Speaker 5: Than you think he is and all that kind of.
Stuff SO i Think Tanner wall was somebody that's good to.
Pray and you know somebody else that is kind of
popped up on the radar recently is is long Snapper Garrison.
Grimes oh, yeah really, good really good. Grades he might
have an opportunity to stick with. Somebody and and as
we've we've found out over the, years if you get
yourself a good position as a long snapper, man that's
that's like one of the best gigs you can get
because you just get in, there you, know four or
five times a, game do your, job and get paid
a ton of.
Speaker 2: Money don't talk to me about L. J. Martin don't
talk to me about A Chase. Roberts don't talk to
me about A Tanner. Wall give Me Garrison, grimes give,
me give me slave deep, cut give me will give
me the specialist C ba you special. Teams it's the
best group on the football. Tailor, look it's all jokes
and being tongue in, cheek But i'm being serious. Though Garrison,
