Re: Recruiting
So did he suddenly figure out how to go to class and do his schoolwork? Or is SUU turning a blind eye?

I guessing that once he lost his opportunity at Utah State, he chose to take his second chance at Southern Utah more seriously.hipsterdoofus21 wrote: ↑June 24th, 2020, 9:15 pmSo did he suddenly figure out how to go to class and do his schoolwork? Or is SUU turning a blind eye?

Re: Recruiting
We need to do all we can to get Gonzaga in this conference. They really raise the profile of the wcc. They have become a top 5 basketball program imo.

Re: Recruiting
That would be extraordinary. But would they even want to come? They have the WCC in the palm of their hands, and they don't seem to need a better conference; they're Gonzaga.
Plus, how would Boise State feel if all of a sudden they weren't the prettiest girl at the dance?

Re: Recruiting
The WCC is a better basketball conference with very easy travel. You would be better off trying to join them. So would Nevada.

Re: Recruiting
You may be right with Gonzaga. But if you could have Gonzaga in both conferences the mw has much more appeal in my opinion. They have two teams wirh the same potential as SDSU, New Mexico, usu, unlv, Nevada. Even then I’m not sure the gaels have the same potential long term as some of the teams I listed.

Re: Recruiting
I think with Smith seeing what is happening with the top players in the state he knows he is going to have to look elsewhere. I think he will continue to recruit top talent from the state, but realize he may not win many of those battle. Mason Faslev is a good example that probably didn’t help (maybe Smith wasn’t even involved in his recruiting) seeing him choose the U, which dies not appear to be a real stable program right now. Then to lose the Hall kid to BYU. I say gobb NBC with your strengths. If he can develop a strong relationship overseas, go for it. Someone can probably answer this, is there any statistic that’s shows 5)3 % of foreign players playing 4 years without declaring early or going into the transfer portal?

Re: Recruiting
Pretty much whichever conference has Gonzaga is the better conference. Because Gonzaga. You remove Gonzaga from the equation however and I don't see how the MW isn't considered better overall than the WCC.slcagg wrote: ↑June 25th, 2020, 6:12 pmYou may be right with Gonzaga.

Re: Recruiting
Exactly. I’d argue that being associated gonzaga has elevated BYU and st Mary’s. Get a chance to play them every year multiple times would be a big boost to your net ranking. Especially if you keep it close or do beat them. Look at what BYU’s win this year did to validate them in the eyes of the committee. Made them a solid 5-6 seed.hipsterdoofus21 wrote: ↑June 26th, 2020, 9:22 amPretty much whichever conference has Gonzaga is the better conference. Because Gonzaga.

Re: Recruiting
Oh no, I agree that it did. But we had a comparable win against a comparably-ranked SDSU, and we wouldn't have been a 5-6 seed.

Re: Recruiting
Mason Falslev committed to utah a month after he ended his sophomore year. His connection with Rylan Jones was the only thing that held his commitment. If Rylan stays at utah his entire career, he will be a senior by the time Mason returns from his mission. Playing together for a year may not seem that cool anymore. Especially, if the program continues to struggle and a certain coach is still employed there.FeartheFro wrote: ↑June 25th, 2020, 7:40 pmI think with Smith seeing what is happening with the top players in the state he knows he is going to have to look elsewhere.

Re: Recruiting
While your talking what-ifs. Rylan Jones is at Utah because the coach hired his dad. If Utah makes a coaching change
and his Dad is let go in the process, would Rylan look at transferring. He spent many years behind the bench in the
spectrum as a ball boy. If that were to happen could Falslev and Jones consider USU. Just dreaming
